War Losses Report

Already famous WAR LOSSES REPORT - https://straty-wojenne.pl - Polish & English Versions.
Unfortunately, the publication contains errors - I drew attention to the descriptions of the visual layer in the second photographic volume. The report concerns only the crimes committed in Poland (by Germans - but not the Austrians in German uniform) as a result of the decisions of the Yalta and Potsdam conferences. We will not learn anything about the victims of the citizens of the Republic of Poland who lived until July 1945 (i.e. the actual resignation by the communists) of the eastern voivodeships of the Republic of Poland. De iure, all those living there were citizens of the Republic of Poland - despite territorial changes as a result of the Hitler-Stalin pact (August 23, 1939).
So the victims (in part of Generalbezirk Weissruthenien, Generalbezirk Litauen, Reichskommissariate Ukraine and Distrikt Galizien of the Generalgouvernement) were still de iure citizens of the Republic of Poland - Poles, Jews, Belarusians or Ukrainians, but weren't taken into account of "War Losses Report". Let us mention, for example: the mass murders of SS-Kavallerie Brigade in the Pripet (Pinsk) Marshes, Polenaktion in Generalbezirk Weißrussland, Unternehmen "Hornung" and "Hermann" and many more.
We can also object to the captions of the volume with an iconographic layer - for example, SD officers described as members of the Gestapo, and policemen from Schutzpolizei as SS or members Technische Nothilfe as German Pioneers.
