Thank you to all who have been keeping up with my story. I am so sorry for not updating sooner. Life got in the way. However, there is one more chapter, and I hope to have it up soon. Please read and reviews are appreciated!
The door to barracks 2 opened, revealing a very out of breath Schultz. He closed the door behind him before looking around the room.
"Everyone raus, raus! Special formation outside," he said, starting to herd the prisoners outside.
"Haven't we done this before?" Hogan asked as zipped his jacket up.
"Yes, Colonel Hogan, but please no monkey business tonight!" Schultz pleaded.
"We promise Schultz," Hogan said as he left the barracks for his position in line.
The men were all in formation once again as Klink exited his office. The four Gestapo agents met him as Klink stood outside.
"All present and accounted for Herr Kommandant," Schultz said, saluting his superior officer.
"Danke Schultz. Major, are you going to begin your search?"
"Yes Colonel. Krause, Eichmann, Hoch, lets begin our search in the cooler," the Major said as he and the other 3 Gestapo agents made their way to the cooler.
The other prisoners watched the agents leave, then Hogan turned to Klink. "What's going on Kommandant?"
Klink sighed heavily before turning to Hogan and saying, "He says that Hochstetter didn't die yesterday and is still hiding out here. They are searching for him now."
"But that's crazy!"
"Hogan, we Germans never question what the Gestapo does."
"I know but..." Hogan was cut off as the four Gestapo agents came out of the cooler dragging a handcuffed Hochstetter between them.
"Herr Kommandant, here is the elusive Major Hochstetter. He was hiding out in the back cell. We will be taking him to Berlin now, and your lack of security will be in my report. Heil Hitler!"
With that, the major shoved Hochstetter in the car and slid in beside him. Major Krause was on the other side while the two captains were up front. The car started then pulled out of the camp.
Klink stood watching the car leave, his mouth open. Hogan sidled up beside him. "Wow, he had been here all that time. I don't think that Major really liked you Colonel."
Klink turned and glared at Hogan, saying," That is all Hogan. Dismissed!" before turning on his heel and going into his office.
Hogan grinned before turning and walking with his men into the barracks. No one said anything until the door had been shut behind everyone. As soon as the door closed, the barracks erupted with laughter.
"He fell for it! He really fell for it!" Kinch said, wiping tears out of his eyes.
"I know! Hey Kinch, check in a little while to make sure Hochstetter makes it and is on his way."
"Will do Colonel."
"I can't believe it," Carter said, smiling and laughing his head off.
"You can't believe what mate?" Newkirk asked from his bunk.
"I can't believe we pulled this off. We got Hochstetter, Hochstetter of all people, out of Germany!"
"Yeah I know. We are really good!" LeBeau chimed in as he started a pot of coffee.
"Well, lets not let it get to our heads. After all, he's not out of Germany yet." Hogan started heading to his office, then stopped and turned at the door. "But good job gentleman."
The others grinned at the compliment their commanding officer gave them as they prepared for bed.
