** From the same episode, [=LeBeau=] decides to escape following a broadcast from Charles de Gaulle calling all Free Frenchmen to England. Hogan obviously doesn't want him to go because they have an operation in progress that relies on his culinary skills, but he's willing to allow it. Then the Underground agent [=LeBeau=] is hiding out with (and possibly developing a relationship with) gets picked up by the Gestapo. Hogan immediately offers to help, and it actually takes [=LeBeau=] a minute to figure out that Hogan's already planning a way to spring her.



-->'''Hogan''': Kinch, all that matters is victory. Even if you have to sacrifice two good men.
-->'''Kinch''': Right. (''{{beat}}'') And if they're not back in ten minutes, we're going out to get them, right?

* In ''The Kommadant Dies at Dawn,'' Colonel Klink has been imprisoned and sentenced to be shot at dawn. Volunteers were called to be part of the firing squad; every guard at Stalag 13 does so, including two deserters who return for just that reason. Then Schultz goes to the prisoners for help in arranging Klink's escape to Switzerland. [[EpicFail While Schultz's aid in helping Klink escape goes just as well as it can be expected]], and he was an UnwittingPawn in [[TheChessmaster Hogan's plan to have Klink cleared of charges]], it was heartwarming to see for all their bickering and evident lack of respect for each other, Schultz wasn't about to let Klink die.

* Another nice scene (which also doubles as a CrowningMomentOfAwesome) occurs in "The Flames Grow Higher". Hogan orders [=LeBeau=] and Newkirk to wait ten minutes while he checks out a potential trap and then run back to camp if he doesn't return. Ten minutes pass, Hogan isn't back. Cue Newkirk and [=LeBeau=] coming to his rescue.

* In the very next episode, "Two Nazis for the Price of One", the Heroes learn that a traitor in London has revealed their whole operation to a Gestapo general. The Heroes are immediately ordered to shut down the operation and escape...until the general shows up and wants to question Hogan. Hogan decides to see the general to find out how much he knows about the operation (and the top secret Manhattan Project), and orders the others to go ahead and escape without him while they can. All four of the guys refuse to leave without their C.O.

* Burkhalter's PetTheDog moments with his family count. He's not a nice guy, and he is easily one of the more dangerous adversaries the heroes (and Klink) face, but he definitely cares about his family, examples including getting a famous designer to sew a wedding dress for his niece, and attempting to marry off his widowed sister so she wouldn't be lonely anymore

* A minor one from "Everybody Loves a Snowman," as a shot-down bomber crew tries to make a break for it from the barracks when Hogan's actions don't make sense to them. Without even hesitating, the other Heroes get in their way, staring them down. They don't have any idea of what Hogan's doing either, but they trust him with their lives.

Added DiffLines:

* In "Sticky Wicket Newkirk", Newkirk gets caught in civilian clothing outside of camp and transferred to another Stalag. When he's packing to leave, Hogan tells him that they don't have a way they can keep him there (although [[StatusQuoIsGod they do by the end of the episode]]) but they don't have to let him rot in some other Stalag after all he's done for the Resistance. Hogan hands him a gun and tells him to take the escape route to London after leaving camp.
** In the same episode, Newkirk (rather than take the escape route as Hogan instructed) goes to check on the girl he got caught with at the start of the episode. She turns out to be a Gestapo agent, but the sentiment counts.

For context, he had called Hogan a traitor earlier in the episode, regarding the lack of escapes from Stalag 13 as Hogan selling out to the enemy. His reason for the change of heart? Newkirk pulled him aside and explained ''why'' there hadn't been any escapes, finishing up with "And you can throw me in jail for it, sir, but legally speaking ''I'm in jail already.''"
* The friendship between Hogan and General Walters, who infiltrates the camp disguised as a corporal in one episode and reappears in a later episode. It's clear that a fair portion of the Allied Command is quite fond of the Heroes.

** And when the tables are turned and Newkirk is captured, Hogan seems to write off the loss. The men seem on the verge of mutiny until Hogan reveals that he only acted that way to bluff a double agent who was in the room with them, and that he wasn't going to leave one of his own men behind.
