Maybe he was referring to a great-uncle. His grandfather’s brothers.

Very plausible. Don’t want to defend this guy, but I can understand something like that. The Auschwitz thing still doesn’t fly though.

No, it was his uncle. He went on to be a mercinary who trained the snipers who shot at Hillary in Bosnia.

Here's a little about Stanley Dunham's family. Kansas roots show in Obama, say relatives

Obama's grandfather did have a brother, Ralph. Stanley Dunham returned to El Dorado in 1985 for the 50th reunion of the Class of 1935. His older brother, Ralph, who lives in Florida, joined him on the trip, but Madelyn did not.

This actually appears to be the case, and the camp was Buchenwald and not Auschwitz. He just misspoke. The problem is, he sure does do that a lot.
