Answer with Explanation:

The American soldiers were astonished to see the emaciated condition of the people in the Nazi concentration camps. They couldn't imagine how the people survived in an area overwhelmed by diseases, corpses and lack of food and water. Thousands of people were kept in this kind of brutal condition. They couldn't contain the Nazi atrocities and immediately started helping the victims by aiding them with food, clothing and shelter. The horrors they encountered were too overpowering and out-of-this-world. They were so enraged that they executed the German guards after the liberation.
