The Last Week of War

Hogan sat by the radio, waiting. Waiting for word from London, word about anything. It had been several weeks since London had contacted Stalag 13, and it made Hogan worry. He worried that his side had surrendered. He worried that "Goldilocks" had been found and destroyed or that maybe the radio had stopped working and he was missing a lot of critical information.

"Colonel" came a voice from behind him. Hogan turned and saw Sergeant Kinchloe standing by the ladder that led into the barracks.

"Yeah Kinch, what is it?" said Hogan with an air of impatience.

"Want me to take over for a bit?" asked Kinch.

"Yeah, I guess so" Hogan replied "but be sure to wake me right away if anything comes in."

Ever since London lost contact with Stalag 13, the men had been taking it in shifts to sit by the radio and wait for incoming messages.

Hogan crept up the ladder to the barracks, and shut the secret tunnel. He then quietly walked across the barrack floor and opened the door to his privet quarters.


Hogan tossed and turned for the whole night, not able to sleep. Until he was suddenly startled by the sound of his door opening, and sat up straight to see a huge figure standing in the doorway.

"Hogan" he heard the massive form whisper.

"Schultz" Hogan replied. The blob that was the German Sergeant Schultz moved forward and bent over to whisper into Hogan's ear.

"Hogan, one of your men is missing!" Schultz whispered anxiously.

"He's down in a secret passageway, waiting for a message from London."

"Jolly Joker" said Schultz in a louder voice while straightening up. He pointed at Hogan and said.

"I will have to report this to the commandant"

"Good luck with that Schultz". Schultz bent closer again.

"Good luck?" He said.

"Well after two years of a perfect record it can't just be a coincidence that the only escape happens when you're on duty."

"I know nothing, NO-THING," said Shults as he walked out of the barracks.

The thought of having put another one over on Schultz made it easier for him to sleep, and the next thing Hogan knew he was being shaken awake for role call by Corporal LeBeau. Hogan got up sleepily and changed. And two minuets everyone had gathered outside for role call. Schultz waked down the line mumbling and when he reached the end he counted on his fingers, then turned to Hogan.

"Hogan a different one is missing" he mumbled out of the corner of his mouth "please Colonel Hogan, not now of all times"

"Why Schultz? What's going on right now?" asked Hogan. Schultz's eyes widened in horror and he turned and jogged away while saying.

"I know nothing, NO-THING"

"You do know something Schultz" said Hogan under his breath "and if we aren't going to get information from London, we're going to get information from you."
