After Germany surrendered, the truth about the Concentration Camps became public. The Allied Forces had found camps throughout Germany and the countries it had occupied during the war. Somebody had to be held responsible for the atrocities that had been committed at these camps, and they were. Many high ranking German military officials were arrested and put on trial at Nuremberg. They were found guilty of crimes against humanity, most were executed while a few were sentenced to life in prison.
