<< and who acted as work
 group leaders etc (there was a special German name for their role, but I
 have sent the book back to the publisher now and can't recall it: Horak
 comments on their extreme cruelty and violence towards herself and other
 Jewish prisoners) >>
There were special non-jewish prisoners who were devided into:
BV - Befristete Vorbeugungshäftlinge
SV - Sicherungsverwahrte
both criminals 
and then
A - Asoziale 
"dropped out", "freaks", alcoholics, gypsies, and so on
also "group leaders", "kapos".

The "colours" of the prisoners:
Red - political prisoners
Green - criminals
Yellow triangle - jews
Violet - Jehova's witnesses
Black - "Asoziale"
pink - homosexuals
Brown - gypsies
