I think Clary was the last living cast member of Hogan's Heroes.

Rest in peace Corporal LeBeau

Robert Clary, 96, is best known as LeBeau on Hogan's Heroes, but was more than a celebrity. He survived the Holocaust.
He was 16 when the Germans rounded up his family. The Nazis killed his 14 siblings and parents at Buchenwald.
But he survived and became a song-and-dance man and an actor. Later, he used his celebrity to show the Holocaust was real.
RIP to the real hero on Hogan's Heroes.

John Banner and Werner Klemperer (Schultz and Klink) were also Holocausts survivors.

Career-wise, Richard Dawson probably did the best with the long-running "Family Feud" game show ?

No, not Lebeau! 96 is a pretty good long life. Great show.
