Notes
Rare use by a male prisoner of the F.K.L. card usually reserved to female prisoners. This prisoner arrived in camp on 25 August 1943. "August 28 1943 – Nos.138771-139645 are given to 875 male prisoners and nos. 55778-55918 to 141 female prisoners from Pawiak Prison who have been sent to the camp by the Gestapo and the Warsaw SD" (Auschwitz Chronicle p.469). In the same transport was Dr. Alfred Fiderkiewicz who wrote his memoirs in 1954 under the title Brzezinka.
