I made it a habit for each of your posts to calculate how old a person was when he/she was deported to Auschwitz. So it occurred to me that Ignacy Patolski looks to young for being 54 when he arrived in the camp. And then I saw that the prisoner number in your post is a different to the one on the picture.
This somehow confirmed my approach to really look at each individual person.

Thank you for your great work.
