Hogan Gives a Birthday Party - S2-E1
Continuity mistake: The footage of the bomber's nomenclature Hogan and his men commandeer switches several times from during the takeoff, the bombing run, then the end of the bombing run - three different types of planes.
Trivia: During WW2 Robert Clary, who played Louis LeBeau, had been imprisoned at Drancy internment camp in France, and at Buchenwald Nazi concentration camp where he was tattooed with the number "A5714." He was the youngest of 14 children. Twelve members of his immediate family were sent to Auschwitz, and perished.
Question: What exactly is the "cooler"?
Answer: It's a solitary cell. Steve McQueen, star of 'The Great Escape' is known as the 'Cooler King'.

Answer: Not from any of the prisoners. Only the ones Hogan smuggled in and out of the camp. Under Klink's nose.
What about when Hogan or one of his team is caught outside of Stalag 13? There were many episodes where Burkhalter, Klink, or even Hochstetter were surprised to see Hogan or one of his friends out in public instead of the Stalag.
They are always back in camp by the end of the episode, so it doesn't count as a successful escape.
Klink's boast was, invariably, "There has never been a successful escape from Stalag 13," meaning prisoners who escaped but were recaptured and returned to the stalag do not count as escapees.
