 Viktor Brack Information
Viktor Brack (1904-1948) was the organiser of the Euthanasia Programme, Operation T4, where the Nazi state systematically murdered German disabled people.
In March of 1941, Brack fulfilled his assignment and prepared a report for Heinrich Himmler, in which he described the method of sterilizing patients using X-rays on a large scale and without the subject's knowledge of the fact until the effects made themselves felt.
Also, during the Doctors' Trial at Nuremberg, Brack was implicated in the execution of the Euthanasia Program which later emerged as the famous "Action 14 f 13"; the extermination of those concentration camp inmates deemed unable to work.

From the testimony given by a French physician of Jew descent who was a prisoner in Auschwitz from September 1943 to January 1945, can be found that it was in Birkenau camp (adjacent to Auschwitz) where people were sterilized by SS doctors.
Also, in the Doctors' Trial at Nurenberg, Brack was implicated in executing Euthanasia Program which later merged as famous "Action 14 f 13"; the extermination of concentration camp inmates by methods used in euthanasia.

Viktor Brack was a civil servant in the "euthanasia" program who had served in 1930 and 1931 as Heinrich Himmler's driver.
In 1934 he was appointed the head of Central Office II of the Chancellery of the Führer, where he oversaw the murder by gas of thousands of mentally and physically handicapped victims.
Since in Brack's opinion, the manufacture of the devices in the Reich will cause much greater difficulties than doing it on the spot, Brack considers it most expedient to send his people to Riga, especially his chemist Dr. Kallmeyer, who will effect all further steps there.

Viktor Brack also insisted that the consent of the parents be secured by the official physician or by the physician in charge, in other words, before the child was taken to the clinic.

Defendant Viktor Brack tried to justify his actions by stating that the work of Binding and Hoche was considered the standard work on euthanasia.

Brack explained that it had been determined that sterilization with powerful X-rays could be accomplished and that castration would then result.
Another letter from Brack to Himmler, in June 1942, laid the basis of X-ray experiments which were subsequently carried out at Auschwitz.

Brack estimated that with only 20 x-ray devices (low cost of machinery), three to four thousand individuals could be sterilized daily, thus suggesting that a new method of sterilization be implemented.
Brack created a method of sterilization that had the capacity to sterilize as many as three to four thousand people per day.

Brack's deputy was Werner Blankenburg; Hefelmann was the leading light at the Kdf for children's “euthanasia”.
All the T4 staff were initially interviewed by Brack or Blankenburg, “even down to the tea-ladies.” The recruitment of Dieter Allers may be regarded as typical.
In November 1940, his mother met Blankenburg in the street and when she told him that her son was in the army, Blankenburg offered to give him a job at the KdF and arranged for his discharge from the military.

 'Vergasungsapparate': Response to Samuel Crowell (Document NO-365)
Crowell ignores Viktor Brack, and thus ignores that he was involved with the T-4 program.
Brack created the T4 organization to secretly conduct adult euthanasia in Germany, created the administrative structure which ran it, and hired the people to fill the positions he created.
Even if the letter had requested stationary gas chambers specifically, such as those Brack's office had constructed for the euthanasia program, it would not be surprising and certainly not contradictory if, between October and December, someone had proposed and enacted an alternate plan.

The permanent gassing facilities were intended to lighten the task of Nazi authorities in the occupied territories of the Soviet Union in carrying out their killing operations.
But the proposal of Dr. Wetzel and of Brack was not implemented in Ostland.
The unemployed 'euthanasia' personnel were assigned to another and bigger task - the erection of camps with gassing facilities, where annihilation of the Jews in the Nazi-occupied territories of Poland would be carried out.

Considering that so far Revisionists were not able to demonstrate that even a single document introduced by the Western Allies for warcrimes trials is a forgery, not the Wannsee protocol nor the gas van documents, it seems reasonable to assume that the document is genuine until the opposite is shown.
The document was written on paper from Brack's office or rubber stamps with his name and adress were used, it has a Geheime Reichssache rubber stamp, handwritten initials at the top and Brack's signature at the bottom.

Actually, Brack wrote even during 1942 that 'a long time ago' Bouhler had directed him to place a contingent of his men at Globocnik's disposal for implementation of Globocnik's special task, and that Himmler had directed him to proceed as rapidly as possible with the killings in order to disguise them.

 Final Destination Treblinka
The sum of Brack's "own experience" at the time amounted to taking charge of and running the T4 operations for two years, euthanizing approximately 70,000 mentally and physically handicapped persons with poison gas, which tells us why he considered speed and secrecy to be of the essence.
Brack stated that the euthanasia programme had stopped and that the people from the T4 world from now on would be detailed to him on a regular basis so that the decisions taken at the Wannsee conference could be implemented.
Given his knowledge about Aktion Reinhard(t) at the time, therefore, Brack's request that 2-3 million Jews be "preserved" from Globocnik's "special mission" for the sake of slave labour is a casual suggestion that only the other 7-8 million be killed in the extermination camps.
