Hellmira! Execution-Retribution-or War Crimes?

[Laurie Verge]

Very interesting - and I think I learned a new meaning for the word "shebang." The only time I have ever heard that word was in slang, something like "the whole shebang." I never thought about the definition of that word.

I'm heading to the dictionary, but the way it is used in Herb's ancestral diary, it certainly seems to refer to a form of shelter at the prison camp. Can anyone edumacate me further?
