Acquisition

United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Collection, Gift of Raymond C. Regan Jr.

Raymond Regan, Jr., donated his father's collection to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum on Jan. 17, 2008.

Scope and Content

Consists of eleven photographs, some possibly taken by Raymond C. Regan, Sr., a member of the 104th Infantry Division (Timberwolves). Eight photographs depict corpses found upon the liberation of the Nordhausen concentration camp and are most likely mass-produced photographs. Three photos, possibly taken by Mr. Regan, were originally described by him as "D.P. trains arriving at Eilenburg with Russ[ians] and Poles," and show what are believed to be trains carrying repatriated displaced persons.
