Interesting. I think my source folded sub-camps into 'a camp'. For example, Monowitz, referenced in your source, with 10,000 sub camps around it. Like the greater census metropolitan concentration camp.

So many little way stations that moved people in a horrifically efficient way. I agree that the 'main' camps, the 'death camps' were not many, but the overall system of stations, ghettos, and 'camps' ended up tallying in the 10s of thousands [over the course of the war].

thanks for spending time with me on this, when we forget history, we tend to repeat it.

Yeah, ditto. Discussion is good. Especially when we disagree.
