You might not be misremembering so much, Mr. Kessler, as misunderstanding the dialogue. I went back to check, and Herzog is obviously making arrangements for his escape at war's end with the forged passports. He has Sorowitsch sign a letter saynig Herzog saved the lives of Jews by having them transferred from such places as Matthausen and Auschwitz, to Sachsausen. There was no mention in the letter of Sorowitsch himself having been specifically at Auschwitz. The funny thing is, if he had a tattoo, why didn't he step forward with Burger, Plappler, and Abramowicz near the end of the movie?
