Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe "Heroes" from Stalag 13 are communicating with a British submarine. The Submarine call sign is "Royal Navy 371". This is likely the pendant (hull) number identifying the type and specific ship. Numbers 311P to 399P were for "T" (Triton) class submarines.
- GoofsDuring the various radio conversations, the submarine commander and/or British officer specifically states "Stalag 13". This would not have been done due to concern of exposing Hogan's operation.
It is stated in the program that they are not transmitting in code. So, using names and locations is not unreasonable, even if it is a dumb thing to do.
- Quotes
Sgt. Hans Georg Schultz: But don't let the commandant see the monkey.
Cpl. Peter Newkirk: Monkey, Schultz? Freddy is a chimpanzee. He's very sensitive about that.
Sgt. Hans Georg Schultz: Oh, I'm sorry, Freddy.
- Crazy creditsThe chimpanzee does not appear in the credits.

Featured review
Should have passed on this script
At times it is difficult for writers to come up with enough scripts for the entire season. And in this episode it is quite obvious that the writers are grabbing at any subject tossed about. This episode has a chimpanzee, that has escaped from the local zoo, coming into camp. Hogan's gang will think of a way to use the ape for the Allied effort.
There really is little about this episode that is interesting. A monkey arrives in camp and the trainers make the animal perform some basic tricks, that has been done thousand of times before, all for the supposed entertainment of the viewer. There were a few funny lines but no real story in this production. I guess, by the end of the season, any thought can be made into an episode. This proves it.
