A particuarly nasty example of this was one female prison guard at Auschwitz (Maybe Birkenau, can't remember off the top of my head), who had her entire room decorated in pieces of furniture made from tatooed skin - theres a picture somewhere out there of a lampshade with clearly indentifiable nipples...
Part of my current history course is the Nazi state - recently looking at concentration camps, hence this particular horror story.
(Off topic I know, but an interesting tangent, if in a macabre way)
