Inherited trauma: Growing up the child of a Holocaust survivor

SOLVED:During World War II, Nazi Germany conducted human medical experimentation on large numbers of people held in its concentration camps. Because many German aircraft were shot down over the North Sea, they wanted to determine the survival time of pilots downed in the cold waters before they died of hypothermia (exposure to cold temperatures). German U-boat crews faced similar problems. In 1942 , prisoners at the concentration camp in Dachau were exposed to hypothermia and hypoxia experiments
