From imdb.com ... Robert Clary played the character Cpl. Louis LeBeau on Hogan’s Heroes. From the trivia section, “Has a tattoo on his left foream, ‘A5714,’ from his time in a German concentration camp during WWII.” That’s not trivial trivia.

Best casting (IMO):

Werner Klemperer (Col. Klink) was Jewish; his family fled Germany before the war, and he agreed to play the part only if Klink was always portrayed as a failure.
