Methods of Torture #3: Holocaust memorial museum

Today I read more about medical experiments that the Nazis preformed. I have read that there is about 3 categories that the experiments would fall under."The first category consists of experiments aimed at facilitating the survival of axis military personnel.The second category of experimentation aimed at developing and testing pharmaceuticals and treatment methods for injuries and illnesses which German military and occupation personnel encountered in the field.The third category of medical experimentation sought to advance the racial and ideological tenets of the Nazi worldview"(Holocaust Museum). It seems that the Nazis wanted to be more knowledgeable and powerful. They would do whatever they could to achieve their goals even if it would take the lives of millions of people. It is crazy to wonder how the Nazis came up with these experiments and preform them effectively.
