February 11, 1943:


"More than 700,000 Jews perished at the Treblinka death camp.
Most came from such major ghettos as Warsaw (250,000 in the summer of 1942) and Bialystok, while others endured (or died during) long train rides from Czechoslovakia, Greece, and other countries.
Deportations to Treblinka ended in May 1943."

Robert Clary was a young French Jew at the beginning of WWII. Of twelve members of his family deported, only he survived the camps. Ironically, he played LeBeau in Hogan's Heroes, an inmate in a Nazi prisoner of war camp. Klink and Schultz were also Jews, as was the show's producer.
