Medical Doctor assigned to Dachau after liberation

Well written account of Lieutenant Marcus J. Smith, an Army Doctor who with 9 others was sent to form Displaced Persons Team # 115, to Dachau after liberation. How Lt. Smith who had his medical training in radiology was unprepared for what was waiting for him and his team at Dachau. The book follows his assignment for 6 weeks at Dachau, now a dispaced persons camp. A good book for those interested in Dachau after liberation.
