During the Holocaust, approximately 6 million Jews were murdered as well as another 11 million Soviets, Poles, Serbs, Romani, homosexuals, leftists, etc. Are these numbers included when people say the Allies lost 61 million between 1937 and 1945? Does that number include those that died in the Gulag in the Soviet Union?
