Execution… Nazi officers executing Jews, a grave dug in front of them to topple into. Although many people associate the Holocaust with the gas chambers, this largely due to previous means of execution having drawbacks. Execution with firearms not only consumed much needed ammunition but the psychological state of the soldiers involved began to deteriorate with depression and suicide rate increasing. If you ever get a chance, read Masters of Death: The SS-Einsatzgruppen and the Invention of the Holocaust.
