Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaRobert Hogan guest-stars in this show. The main character in the series was named after him by his friend Bernard Fein, who was co-creator of the show. Interestingly, Hogan almost was chosen to star in the show and this would have meant that he would have been playing a character with the same name as his.
- GoofsWhen LeBeau opens the outside trapdoor at the end of the tunnel, it opens upwards. Second time he opens it, it slides across. Update: This is not necessarily a goof. The cover is obviously not attached in any way - it just sits in a groove around the exit. It makes sense that LeBeau would tip the tunnel cover up to scout out the area, since just dropping the cover down if necessary is easier and more likely to set in the groove properly than sliding it off and back on.

Featured review
A flood of POW's are knocking at Hogan's door.
In this episode Hogan, without any advance notice, is about to get some prisoners that have escaped from Stalag 9. But unlike what Hogan's operation is accustom, this escape from Stalag 9 contains twenty prisoners. The is going to be a large operation for Hogan and his men.
With the escape, Klink has his guards on high alert in case the word gets out of a large escape at another camp. But with so many prisoners in camp Hogan is going to have to hand Klink some bits of achievement in order to release some of the alerts. There needs to be a large diversion so that the twenty escaped POW's can get back to England.
Unlike in more advance episodes, Klink seems to be more harsh in his actions in this broadcast that he will be later in the years. We also get a glance at some of the operations that will be unseen in later years- as we get to see Carter making German ID's and NewKirk measuring for clothing. This was a good story that was entertaining from beginning to end. Good watch.
