The author of the article describes the previously unknown story of Gurs camp founded in 1939, in southern France. The existence of internment camps on the territory of France was a shameful card during the Second World War in this country. The camp in Gurs was established near the border with Spain by the French authorities in April 1939. The camp was originally intended for Spanish citizens. In May 1940, after German invasion of France, the Vichy state administration changed its use . It became " half penal camp" to which foreign nationals of Jewish origin were sent. Since 1942, when the Germans decided to "solve the Jewish question", the French authorities deported internees in transports, "in an unknown direction" to death camps on the Polish territory. After the war Vichy government collaborators were sent to Gurs camp. Today, the site is the camp's mausoleum.

Organisation of labour units, as well as selection of people, was similar in Slovak republic in the period of 1945 - 1948. People in commissions - functionaries of local offices and HSLS together with police officers - mainly aimed on selection of gypsies and personally uncomfortable people. Men in units, e. g. work avoiding, so called asocials or black-marketers, were employed in building railroad in eastern Slovakia, Orava barrage, regional roads, etc. Almost every object suffered from poor conditions, absence of food and clothes, high labour requirements which decreased working efficiency of people. Units were economically disadvantageous and corrective labour wasn't effective. The last unit in Ustie nad Oravou was extinct in 1944 and labour camps were renewed in 1945. Internment objects for Jews were established for working duty, such as labour centres or camps in 1941 - 1944 and deportations in 1942 (concentration and dislocation camps). Custodial camps were also formed for a couple of reasons. The object for politically unreliable people existed from 1939 to 1945In Ilava The camp in Dubnica nad Vahom, established in 1944 for gypsy families and their deportations had different character.
