    I came across this article about Lale Sokolov who tattooed the numbers on the arms of prisoners at Auschwitz. It was from the BBC and I found it intriguing.
    For more than 50 years, Lale Sokolov lived with a secret - one born in the horrors of wartime Europe, in a place that witnessed some of the worst of man's inhumanity to man.
