Pair of books I'm cataloging are by a "Ka-tzetnik 135633". Curious about such a name, I checked the internets. Apparently it means "Concentration Camper 135633" in Yiddish. He used it as his publishing name because, according to Wikipedia, that is what he'd become.

That's actually pretty fascinating that they took on the name for such a thing. Intense, too.
