Very sad to watch. But Robert Clary is such a great talent. I've always been a big fan of his. It took a lot of guts to go back to where the horrifying events of the Holocaust happened. I had a personal email from him a few years ago after visiting his website. Very friendly & down to earth gentleman. I wish him and his loved ones the best. Thank you for sharing this with us! :)

@caprice6 @caprice6 Howard Caine (Hochstetter) was also Jewish... Amazing they could put their feelings aside about their experiences and do this as a comedy... wikipedia(dot)org/wiki/Hogan%2­7s_Heroes

Leon Askin, he played Gen. Burkhalter-"The journalists in Vienna and Austria and also in Germany call me a legend. I'm a man who lived through difficult times. I'm a man who survived the monster of all times, Adolf Hitler, and I'm still, at my high old age of 93, successful in my profession and that is the pride with which I live and survive."

Werner Klemperer his family fled from Nazi Germany in the 1930s for being Jewish. He served in the U.S. Army during World War II.

@switcherx John Banner was also Jewish. He was forced to abandon his homeland after the 1938 Anschluss (union) between Nazi Germany and Austria, which occurred while he was engaged in a tour of Switzerland with an acting company.

@caprice6 I believe Werner Klemperer (Colonel Klink) ironically was Jewish too.
