A/N: I don't own Hogan's Heroes and I don't get paid for this; it is truly a labor of love.

To all of those heroes who fought a war, and then fought a second war as a POW...you are not forgotten.

Newark, New Jersey, June 10, 1941

"I remember you
You're the one who made my dreams come true
A few kisses ago..."

"Tony, Tony! Must you sing that song? What about all the old songs we used to sing, eh?"

"Sorry, Mamma. But all the kids sing this, you know?"

"I know..."

Newark, New Jersey, December 8, 1941

"...a day that will live in infamy."

"No, don't turn the radio off, Papà, I want to hear this. Papà, why do you look at me like that? Mamma, why are you crying?"

Fort Dix Reception Center, Fort Dix, New Jersey, February 28, 1942

"Well, Garlotti, you've passed your physical and completed your aptitude tests. Any idea which branch of the service you want, son?"

"Thank you, sir. Uh, sir...can I request the Air Corps?"

Biggs Field, Texas, May 12, 1942

"Hey, I'm Roy Goldman, from New Berlin, Wisconsin. Where you from, buddy?"

"Newark, New Jersey. Name's Tony Garlotti. Nice to meet you. What kind of job you looking for?"

"I'm looking to be a bombardier."

"Really? Thought everybody wanted to be a pilot."

"Nah. The pilot's just the chauffeur, see? The bombardier is the one who does the important job."

"Yeah, I guess you're right. I just want to get into the air. Gunner, if I can qualify."

"Hey, good luck, Tony."

"You too, Roy."

Molesworth Air Base, Cambridgeshire, England, September 9, 1942

"Hey, Roy, we made it across the Atlantic okay. When do we get a B-17 of our own?"

"Soon, I hope. Can't stand this waiting around. What do you think we should name it, when we get our plane?"

"Dunno. Thought the pilot got to name the plane."

"Lieutenant Harris says everybody should pick out a name and then we can all vote on the one we like best."

"I wanna call it 'Lucky Lady'."

"Tony, that is too corny for words."

"Okay, fine. What do you want to name it?"

"Uh...I guess 'Lucky Lady' is okay by me."

Somewhere over Enthaven, Germany, January 30, 1943

"We're on fire! BAILOUT! BAILOUT! BAILOUT!"

"Tony, grab your chute!"

"I got it, Roy...you okay? Roy? ROY!"

Dulag Luft Interrogation Center, Oberursel, Germany, February 4, 1943

"You are with the 303rd Bomber Group. And you are from Newark, New Jersey. You see, we know everything about you. And we know you are a spy. Do you know what happens to spies? Now tell me what your target was."

"Garlotti, Anthony P., Sergeant, US Army Air Corps, 35593612..."

"Very well. Take him back to his cell, Schmidt."

Dulag Luft holding quarters, February 12, 1943

"Tony! My God, I thought I'd never see you again!"

"Roy...Roy..."

"Sit down for a minute, Tony, you look like hell. Rough time at the Dulag, huh?"

"Yeah."

"Not much better here, to tell you the truth. But at least you're not in solitary anymore. But Tony, I don't think we'll be here long."

"Why? What do you mean?"

"There's a rumor that we're being sent to a Stalag Luft. On account of us being airmen, I guess."

"Couldn't be worse than this."

Stalag Luft 13, February 23, 1943

"Welcome to Stalag 13, boys. Carter, why don't you show Garlotti around? Kinch, you do the same for Goldman."

"Right, Colonel. Goldman, come on with me."

"You got it, sir...I'm glad to meet you, Garlotti. I'm Sergeant Andrew J. Carter, but most guys just call me Carter. Hey, you look like you've had a rough time. We'll get you fixed up, though. Once you've seen the sights here, I'll take you to see Scotty. He's our medic, and he'll check you over."

"Okay...thanks. Uh...do you happen to have anything to eat?"

Stalag Luft 13, Barracks 2, February 24, 1943

"This place is a dump, isn't it, Roy?"

"You said it. Better than the Dulag, though."

"Oh, yeah. But there's something weird going on here."

"What do you mean, Tony? Other than the fact the guards aren't knocking the guys around, and there's actually something that looks like food in the mess hall."

"Well, it's so small! Only a few hundred guys here, looks like."

"Yeah, I think it was an afterthought of the Luftwaffe. One of the guys here says the camp's used mainly for labor to repair the roads around here."

"And the way we got grilled when we got here yesterday..."

"They're just looking for Kraut plants."

"I guess..."

"Listen, Tony. We'll take it a day at a time. We're better off here than we've been since we got shot down. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth."

Stalag Luft 13, Barracks 2, Colonel Hogan's office, March 1, 1943

"...and that's what we're trying to accomplish here, Garlotti. I want you to think carefully before you make your decision. Do you understand the risks involved?"

"Yes sir."

"If you don't feel that you are up to this, we can arrange for a transfer to another camp where you won't have this kind of responsibility. Where you can just be a regular POW. And where we can help you escape to England, if that's what you want."

"Colonel, I don't have to think about it. I want to help out here."

"Good man. Now, I'd like to get an idea of what kind of skills you have..."

Stalag Luft 13, May 3, 1943

"I remember you
You're the one who made my dreams come true
A few kisses ago..."

"Where'd you get that from, Tony?"

"Don't remember offhand. Everybody was singing it back in '41. Just always liked it, I guess."

"I kinda like it too, I guess."

Stalag Luft 13, October 22, 1943

"Colonel, I'm sorry I don't know a recipe for pizza. And it looks like nobody else in camp does either. So how are we gonna get through to this Bonacelli guy?"

"Garlotti, we're going to try to have London get hold of your father for that pizza recipe."

"You can do that, Colonel? Could you maybe..."

"Sorry, Garlotti. You know the rules. Our families only know that we are POWs. We can't let your father or anyone else know that we have communication with England. The only thing we can tell him is that you are still a POW and that you're in good health."

"Yes sir. Say, Colonel...what Carter said about Italians loving music...that's true, you know. It might be nice if we could sing something for Major Bonacelli."

"Yeah? So do you know the words to 'Santa Lucia'?"

"No, but I'm thinking maybe London should ask my dad about that when they get the pizza recipe."

Stalag Luft 13, June 7, 1944

"Men, I'm happy to tell you that somehow the Krauts didn't take decisive action when our boys hit the beaches at Normandy, and the Allies were able to secure a beachhead."

"What do you think, Roy? Will it be over soon?"

"Dunno, Tony. All we know is the Allies have landed. Guess we just keep doing what we've been doing."

Stalag Luft 13, July 21, 1944

"Sorry, men. The briefcase bomb worked, but not well enough. Hitler's still with us, I'm afraid. So it's gonna be business as usual."

"What do you think, Tony?"

"Like the Colonel said. Guess we just keep doing what we've been doing."

Stalag Luft 13, September 20, 1944

"I remember you
You're the one who made my dreams come true
A few kisses ago..."

"Ah jeez, Tony, give it a rest, will ya!"

"Sorry, Roy."

Stalag Luft 13, December 18, 1944

"Men, I know it sounds bad. But let's give our boys some credit. They'll fight their way out of this and be in Germany before you know it. But don't count on being home for Christmas this year."

"Here, Roy. I've been saving this for a special occasion."

"Your last chocolate bar, Tony? For a time like this, when the Krauts launch a major offensive and catch our guys flat-footed?"

"Well, I figure times like this we need it the most, right?"

Stalag Luft 13, February 26, 1945

"Hey, Tony?"

"Yeah, Roy."

"Could you sing that song again?"

"Sure...

I remember you
You're the one who made my dreams come true
A few kisses ago..."

Stalag Luft 13, April 10, 1945

"What the hell! Roy! Roy, look! There's a Sherman tank at the gates!"

"Oh, my God! Tony, you're right. Hey, somebody get the Colonel!"

"Roy..."

"Yeah?"

"Are you crying?"

"Yeah..."

"Me too."
