* Also from the album, “The Last Time I Saw Paris.” Though there’s no dialogue indicating that it’s sung in character, it’s not hard to imagine LeBeau feeling homesick and heartbroken that his homeland is under Nazi control. Particularly the sorrowful delivery of the last few lines:

* From the album, “A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square” is sung in character as Newkirk helping Carter write a letter to a girl he loves. It quickly becomes clear that Newkirk is reminiscing about someone he misses, and his voice falters on the final line, unable to continue.
-->'''Carter''': Were you ever in Berkeley Square?
-->'''Newkirk''': Once, Andrew. Just once.

* ''Series/HogansHeroes'', for all that it's a comedy, still has moments of acknowledging that they're in the middle of a war. In one notable episode, Hogan attempts to seduce a female SS officer for information. She then confesses that she has no way out of her job without dying and is probably going to get shot soon anyway, ending with a pitiable "Help me...". Then it turns out she's going to the exact place where Hogan knows Allied forces are going to bomb and he can't tell her a word of it even to save her life. [[spoiler: She eventually doesn't go, but still.. the look on their faces.]]

*** Made even worse when you realize that LeBeau's actor ''lived through that experience'', as his ability to sing and dance is all that kept him alive in a concentration camp. He had to deal with the Nazis stealing everything great from his country, and couldn't do anything to stop it.

** [=LeBeau=] has a couple of those, usually whenever a German shows up with a bunch of stolen French art. He's absolutely beside himself when a general shows up with a truckload of stolen museum pieces. He's even ''more'' outraged when Newkirk and Kinch don't react as heavily to the theft.

* In "Sticky Wicket Newkirk", Newkirk gets caught in civilian clothing outside of camp, and Klink orders him transferred to another Stalag. Hogan breaks the news to the rest of the crew, and when Newkirk comes in to get his gear, everyone is visibly choked up.

Klink first tries to defend him but then chickens out and starts calling Schultz a stupid useless guard. Its very hard not to feel for Schultz who's trying not to cry in that scene.

** Downplayed a little when it turns out [[spoiler: she was testing Hogan]]. Newkirk winds up in a very similar situation in "Is there a Traitor in the House?" and reacts the same way.

[=LeBeau=], enraged at this further pillaging of his country, sneaks into Klink's office and steals the painting. When he removes it from its frame and holds it up in front of him, the surge of sorrow and anger causes him to start crying.
