Katja SchotKatja Schot was a female overseer at two Nazi concentration camps from late 1943 until April 1945. Catharina (Katja) Schot was born in Amsterdam, Holland on May 15, 1925. When the Nazis took Holland in 1940, Katja was a Dutch collaborator. She applied to be an SS member in 1943. In 1943 special permission was granted for her to become an "employee of the Reich" and she came to Vught as an Aufseherin. There she served as one of only ten female overseers. On May 17, 1944 the SS sent her to Ravensbruck with the evacuation train from Vught concentration camp. She continued her service until the liberation of Ravensbruck in April 1945, and returned to Holland. She was never punished for war crimes. Schot, Katja Schot, Katja
