The COMINT amassed hundreds of Nazi dispatches describing the Holocaust in occupied Poland, the USSR, and elsewhere. After World War II these records were deposited in different archives of various cryptological agencies that had taken part in COMINT, situated in various countries, which created an obstacle for historians. This book presents a guide to the collections held in U.S. and British archives which contain material pertaining to the Holocaust. Provides a selection of topics that can be researched in the COMINT records, including the genocide in Eastern Europe, Vichy's policies concerning the Jews, Jewish refugees, the destruction of Hungary's Jews in 1944, and Jewish assets looted by the Nazis and placed in Swiss banks. Notes that as much as 85-90% of all messages collected by the Allied COMINT were not processed to the point of formal dissemination. Of the perhaps few hundred translations and decrypts published during the war, those containing information pertinent to the Holocaust number between 700-900. After the war, most of the unprocessed information was destroyed. |c(From the Bibliography of the Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism). 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 650 0 World War, 1939-1945 |xCryptography. 650 0 Eavesdropping |zUnited States. 650 0 Eavesdropping |zGreat Britain. 650 0 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) 650 0 Confidential communications |zGermany. 650 0 World War, 1939-1945 |xMilitary intelligence |zUnited States. 650 0 World War, 1939-1945 |xMilitary intelligence |zGreat Britain. 650 0 World War, 1939-1945 |xElectronic intelligence. 611 27 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00958866 611 27 World War (1939-1945) |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01180924 650 7 Confidential communications. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00874701 650 7 Cryptography. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00884552 650 7 Eavesdropping. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00901231 650 7 Electronic intelligence. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00907316 650 7 Military intelligence. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01021270 651 7 Germany. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01210272 651 7 Great Britain. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01204623 651 7 United States. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01204155 650 7 Geheimdienst. |2gnd |0(DE-588)4019737-2 650 7 Judenvernichtung. |2gnd |0(DE-588)4073091-8 650 7 Quellenkritik. |2gnd |0(DE-588)4128542-6 610 27 University of South Alabama. |2gnd |0(DE-588)5241550-8 651 7 Grossbritannien. |2gnd |0(DE-588)4022153-2 650 7 Buggning. |2sao 650 7 Andra världskriget 1939-1945. |2sao 650 7 Underrättelseverksamhet. |2sao 650 7 Förintelsen. |2sao 648 7 1939-1945 |2fast 648 7 Geschichte 1939-1945 |2gnd 856 42 |3Table of contents |uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1318/2011011467-t.html 856 42 |3Table of contents |uhttp://d-nb.info/1038168740/04 856 42 |3Publisher description |uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1108/2011011467-d.html 852 0 |bstacks |hD810.C88 |iH36 2012
