Original Note:
Important context: Only prisoners sent to Auschwitz received tattoos. The practice was systematically introduced to Jewish arrivals in 1942. Prisoners arriving there who were sent directly to the gas chambers did not receive a tattoo. https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/tattoos-and-numbers-the-system-of-identifying-prisoners-at-auschwitz
