Camp Determination

Camp Determination was a Freedom extermination camp located near Snyder, Texas. Unlike the previous state correction department camps or the Freedom concentration camps, Determination was specifically designed by Standard Leader Jefferson Pinkard of the Freedom Party Guards for the purpose of destroying whole groups of people. Suitably placed in an empty expanse of praire, the camp was laid out alongside a rail spur which could ship in blacks from the east. Later on, after the camp had opened up, a women's camp was established opposite the spur; the Justice Department was extending the Population Reductions to the rest of the black race.

Scores of gassing trucks carried barracks' load of blacks to their deaths toward mass graves hidden away from the camp; blacks in the camps were told that the "shipments" were taking the condemned to a medical facility. Later on, Pinkard concieved of permanent gas chambers disguised as "fumigators" and "delousing stations" on the perimeter of Determination, which could exterminate 1000 people at a time. In the autumn of 1942, Jake Featherston ordered the entire black population of Jackson, Mississippi to be gassed at once, straining the gas chambers and gassing trucks along with the Confederacy's railroad infrasructure, which did nothing to ease complications at the front up in Pennsylvania, where soldiers had no idea about what was going on down south.
