Outstanding questions

• The memorial on Julius-Loßmann-Straße is where the camp was. The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Encyclopedia Volume I: part A page 645 mentions "Siemens-Schuckert was established in Katzwanger Strasse opposite the main entrance of the southern cemetery. It was a barracks camp fenced in with barbed wire.". This is the location where Siemens-Schuckert Werke are indeed (Winter-Günther-Straße), but it is not the location of the camp at Julius-Loßmann-Straße and it is not "opposite the main entrance of the southern cemetery". More research would be good.
