There's a lot going on when you strike a match. For one thing, it can ignite memories of people that you're not even sure you really remember.

When Colonel Robert Hogan falls unexpectedly ill, it sets off a chain reaction of disaster at Stalag 13. Upon his return, Hogan finds his men are gone and a cold Luftwaffe Major in charge, along with a sadistic sergeant. Can Hogan survive long enough to snatch victory from defeat?

Snapshots of lives of the people at Stalag 13, be they Hogan's hero, backrow prisoner, or any other fellow unlucky enough to get pulled into this mess. Rated T to be on the safe side (Please give me a chance I suck at blurbs)

Andrew makes a new friend. He just has to figure a way to convince the others in his barracks. This is dedicated to the memory of a special furbaby friend. Usual Useless Disclaimers, R/R Please.

Frogs. Inuits. Horses. Roller coasters. Romance novels. What do they have in common? Absolutely nothing, except that from time to time our heroes have crazy escapades involving a random array of questions on these and other topics, posed by HH fanfic authors and answered by yours truly. Inspired by the "Which of Our Heroes" Forum thread, expanded, and in response to Challenge #237.

"But then it seemed it was like a loaded spring, because all of a sudden everything deflated and it tore the breath out of Stalag 13." For D-Day's 75th Anniversary and Abracadebra's challenge.

It's a well-established fact that there wasn't a single one in all of Europe. At least there weren't any until London ordered the Heroes to help some very special Americans make their contribution to the war effort on D-Day... Parody/Humor. Part of Forum XIIIc's D-Day 75th anniversary commemoration challenge. Complete!

It was just another day when everything changed. When the Gestapo shows up for Carter there's nothing Hogan or anyone else can do. Now Carter is on his own with the Gestapo.

The long sobs of violins, of autumn, wound my heart with a monotone languor. - Paul Verlaine A short story in answer to Abracadebra's 75th Anniversary of D-day Challenge . . . -

Klink's call to Berlin in the episode "D-Day At Stalag 13" causes Nimrod to appear and confusion to swirl - who is he looking for again? - on D-Day, with an epilogue a year later with the war over and Hogan finally learning his identity. Written for the 75th anniversary of D-Day challenge.

Summary: Carter says something he wishes he hadn't. Sometimes it takes a cooler head to point out the not-so-obvious. Set after "Permission to Escape." Please Read and Review. I own nothing but my dog. And I wonder about her...

Somebody's got to speak on Berlin Betty's broadcast - but who's going to step up and be the traitor, knowing that the broadcast could haunt him after the war? Newkirk realizes his weakness is a strength in this situation. Based on the episode by nearly the same name, minus the stutter.

Colonel Hogan's injuries are serious. Newkirk's not scared. Really he's not. The Colonel will be fine as always. Book 3 in Home series. I do not own Hogan's Heroes.

This is a story depicting the night of George's suicide, a good friend of Jout - and the reason why he left the squadron. It's not necessary to have read my other story, "Brothers in Arms", in which this is a major topic. But if you like to know more, Jout explains what happened in chapter 28 of named story. But like I said, it's not necessary to know that.

(A re-post by request of a full-length novel that was removed during adaptation into a screenplay.) When Hogan's operation is compromised and his secret identity is about to be revealed, his team-and his closest enemies, are endangered. How far are each willing to go to save the rest? Full novel posted here. (Sorry!) I will break into chapters again soon. Author aka Hotcorner.

April 6, 1995: fifty years after the camp's liberation, the team visits Stalag 13 one last time.

It really doesn't run in the family.

The camp has to contend with a rules-obsessed substitute Kommandant after Klink has to go leave for an extended period of time. Will the camp still be in place by the time Klink comes back? And who will snap first? The prisoners or the guards?

He had been mocked and belittled his whole life...by his family, his friends, and even his colleagues. Perhaps his confidence and leadership ability did leave something to be desired. He could admit that, to a degree. But why did no one seem to give a damn about his *good* qualities? (A collection of inter-related stories and brief character studies, focusing on Colonel Klink.)

When it takes three months for the mail to reach its destination, planning is essential. But it would help if everyone understood what that Yank Colonel was talking about.

Because the women who managed to raise our heroes deserve all the love they can get.

It's not easy being sergeant of the guard at Luftstalag XIII. Once again, Schultz feels tormented when his boys interfere with the morning roll call. Short story.

"When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things." -1 Corinthians 13:11 A comparison of the frivolity of childhood free from war and the idyllic comedy that is Hogan's Heroes. A poem.

Newkirk wasn't the first soldier to experience this embarrassing problem, and he probably wouldn't be the last. But every time it happened to him, he felt lonely, mortified, and hopelessly immature. With help from his friends, he started to look beyond a pile of soggy sheets and blankets to unravel the trauma that had dogged him for years.

News is more than what you hear. The mission had been botched in what seemed the worst way possible, but it didn't mean that was actually the case.
