His memoir: “From the Holocaust to Hogan’s Heroes: The Autobiography of Robert Clary”, is a great read. I gave my copy to Lazamataz.

Clary’s (not his real name) family were Polish Jews resident in France. He survived the concentration camp because he was a singer and dancer and told jokes. Germans used him as an entertainer at their parties.

Sort of like in Hogan’s Hero’s?
