The problem I have encountered in trying to verify some of these accounts is there appears to be little supporting evidence to help confirm them so it is hard to separate them from urban myth.

What kind of work did they do in the Concentration Camps? At the Dora camps where they constructed the V1 and the V2 seems to have used forced labors from West Europe for semi skilled work, whatever that is while the Nazis used Polish and Russians for unskilled works. Jews seem to have been moved to the camp later.

The movie Schindler's List show the use of Jewish labors making pots and cans for the army and later munition.

The Nazis also used prisoners for repairing clothes, collecting jewelries to send it all back to Germany. The Nazis also used Jews for making counterfeit British banknotes in what was called Operation Bernard.

The Germans moved a lot of their industries under ground. I guess they used a lot of forced labors, POWs, and concentration camp prisoners for expanding mines to make room for the industry. The Riese complex in the southern Silesia is pretty big.

I can't watch it. The uploader doesn't want Swedes to watch it. Quite annoying. What is the title of the YouTube video?

It is called:
How occupied France worked to sabotage the Nazis.

Essentially it focus's on Peugeot's efforts to hinder vehicle production but it has interesting stats and information about other actions.
