D 1945 42nd INF DIV NEWSLETTER REGARDING
LIBERATION OF DACHAU ................................... PH $400-600

Extremely RARE mimeographed typescript newspaper, '42nd
Rainbow Infantry Division World News' (May 1, 1945), 2pp.,
front and verso, 8"x13". Lead article written only 2 days after
American troops liberated the notorious concentration camp.
Article begins: 'DACHAU is no longer a name of terror for
haunted men. 21,000 of them have been freed by the 42nd
Rainbow Division. The crimes done behind these walls of this
worst of Nazi concentration camps now live only to haunt the
memories of the Rainbowmen who tore open its gates and first
saw its misery... Riflemen accustomed to witnessing death had
no stomach for rooms stacked almost ceiling-high with tangled
human bodies adjoining the cremation furnaces, looking like
some maniac's woodpile...' The article, written by James W.
Greasman, was ordered copied and distributed to each officer
and enlisted man in the 42nd Division. Document is very brittle
with tears and folds, sensibly laminated for preservation.
