Your figures seem somewhat awry, but what needs to be addressed is Mr. Meyer's claim:

Many members of these transports were not killed, however. Perhaps the best know member of these transports is Simone Veil, whose transport arrived in Auschwitz on 13th March 1944. She subsequently served as President of the European Council. In the third edition of her Kalendarium der wichtigsten Ereignisse (Dates of the Most Important Events) published by Dlugoborski/Piper in 1999, Band V pages 184-, this entire transport is missing, as well as the very large transports from France in August and September 1942. For this reason I relied entirely on the corrected Second Edition of 1989.

Does the new Kalendarium omit mention of the transport including Ms. Veil because of a simple confusion over dates?

Does anyone have access to the third edition?

Not really, considering Meyer's absurdities in claiming some were not gassed while others were. There is no evidence for any gassings as repudiation of Meyer in this thread has shown.

I have only an English edition of the book titled: "Auschwitz Chronicle 1939-1945" translated in 1990 from the German edition titled "Kalendarium der Ereignisse im Konzentrationslager Auschwitz-Birkenau, 1930-1945", 1989.

It does not say which edition, but I assume that the English version is translated from the 2. edition in German. It does not include a section with the "Most Important Events". Sorry, can't help.

By the way: Your hair cut seems rather short.

Hi Hebden,

I've read a lot of your past posts. Glad you're still posting. Who is that a picture of anyway?

Curiously he looks like Ivan the Demjanjuk.
