absolutely, every Jewish statue (there were lots) in Poland was torn down & changed to Polish freedom fighter scenes before the war finished & Poland completely excused/deluded itself from it`s behaviour towards Jews, also, Estonians Hungarians & Ukrainians were prevalent in policing the camps,
see Ivan Demjanjuk`s story or the movie Music Box.
Gerald Seymours `Timebomb` is a sickening account of some of the experiences of a camp where even Germans were so worried the world might discover it`s history, they blew it up, bulldozed the remains & planted tree`s on the site to try to hide atrocities of the camp before WW2 was over!
