Answer:

overwhelmed

Step-by-step explanation:

These images and efforts to help such decimated people forever changed many of the American soldiers who liberated the camp. Some were unable to ever speak about what they had seen to anyone. The visual horror of how humans can destroy other humans was simply too overwhelming, and some tried to bury these mental images after leaving the camp.
