Wow, never knew he had the "tattoo", was one of my favorite shows way back and still watch on MEtv. Some pretty interesting charactors on that show, John Banner was lucky to get out, ended up in the USAAC and lost a lot of family in the camps also.

Rest in Peace Robert Clary...

I love Hogan's Heroes and I still watch it. I never knew about Clary's tattoo or of John Banner's (I loved Shultz) history, but another interesting choice to star in the show was Werner Klemperer. Klemperer was a Jewish refugee who escaped Nazi Germany.

Youtube has a video of Werner Klemperer and John Banner singing Silent Night in German wearing tuxedos that is entertaining. It is so unnatural for them to be in a tux.
