A collection of drabbles in response to Challenge #394. I'm a couple days late joining in, but I've started at the beginning and hope to write something for each prompt. Being concise isn't my strength, so I'd appreciate any recommendations for improvement!

Response to challenge #394, 2021 Hogan's Heroes Advent Calendar. This collection of Christmastime drabbles may not be all that holiday-ish and they might not be that "advent-urous" and thanks to finals and my honors thesis, there won't be 31 of them, which is sad since it was my challenge. A few chapters use more than one prompt.

Another gruesome choice for Newkirk comes to life on a lonely street. The darkness and the rain will help to wash away the truth and the memory will keep quiet in the back of his mind.

Christmas Time Drabbles for Challenge #394

This my response to challenge 394: Adventcalender challenge. I'm jumping in a bit late, starting with day 12: snowball fight.

Christmas Advent Challenge snapshots and drabbles for fun.

The end of the war was getting closer; the Allied troops made daily progress in marching into enemy territory. The prisoners at Luft-Stalag 13 on the outskirts of Hammelburg, which was near Dusseldorf, were all excited and antsy. Their senior POW officer Colonel Robert Hogan of the USAAF also known as Papa Bear to the underground, was on a solo mission and it turned sour.

Assisting the resistance pits Hogan and his crew in a precarious position.

At a time when morale takes a dive, a letter comes into play.

A beautiful young lady comes to Stalag 13. Hogan knows her, Klink sees her as a daughter, and Newkirk is in love with her. F/M and M/M if you don't like then don't read. If leaving a review; please be nice about it. But I hope you like the story of Newkirk falling in love, and as well as Hogan and Klink. As well as other's.

There was a great deal more to Alfie Burke than appeared on the surface, and his association with a young Peter Newkirk encompassed far more than a single bank job. Newkirk had known him much better then he'd tried to let on to the other heroes. Except for the fact that, apparently, he hadn't really known him at all. That would have to change. Tag to 'The Safecracker Suite.'

Stalag 13 is being liberated. Hogan knows this. His concern is for Klink. Not just on Liberation Day, but after the Armistice. But there is one spy that just might ease Klink's retirement. Now if Hogan can just put one last plan into play. In honor of German-born Werner Klemperer and John Banner. Klink/OC

This is my take on why Carter wears a ring on his ring finger, and it takes place before his Dear John letter.

Our boys are in the prime of their lives while at Stalag 13. It seems reasonable that some major life events might occur. Written in response to Challenge #401.

Not everybody is happy about winter time. Sometimes there are dark thoughts nobody talks about. Warning: Self harm.

After lights out, some strange miracle takes place in camp on Christmas Day.

What Christmas at Newkirk's home might look like.

A small bunch of Drabbles.

Schultz is Father Christmas to the guys. Corrected

Newkirk gets sick and it's something Carter just can't stand.

The Unsung Heroes sat on a wall. The Unsung Heroes had a great fall. All the king's horses and all the king's men couldn't put the Unsung Heroes back together again. At least that's how the rhyme goes, but our heroes never liked that ending anyway.

A little problem erupts when a Polish officer and his men with a knack for escaping are sent to camp. All the while, Hochstetter and Burkhalter are lurking behind the scenes. Will this shake up to be the most wonderful time of the year Hogan and the gang was hoping for, or will the prisoners and the guards be subjected to another bleak year?

Colonel Hogan and one of his men are out at night for a routine meeting with a new underground group, which ends in a totally unexpected way with dire consequences for the Colonel. Will the underground lose its most important member Papa Bear? Will the men in camp have to evacuate and return to London? Or will everything return to normal for the men in Stalag 13?

Kinch takes part in the camp boxing contest, which is used by Hogan as a distraction to get his hands on secret plans of the Germans. During the actual fight between Kinch and the German guard Bruno, Hogan sends LeBeau on his errand, while Carter plays radio host for the rest of the camp and Hogan, Newkirk and Addison stay as Kinch's moral and actual support for the fight.
