Papa Schultz is an American television series from the 1960s which was broadcast on CBS for six seasons, from 1965 to 1971.

Together, they carry out secret missions to sabotage the plans of the German army and help the allies win the war. The prison camp is headed by commander Wolfgang Hochstetter, a strict and sadistic German officer, and Colonel Wilhelm Klink, an incompetent and fearful German officer. The camp is also populated by other German characters such as Sergeant Hans Schultz, hence the name of the series, which is responsible for the security of the camp but which is easily manipulated by American prisoners. Papa Schultz was a great success on television and has won numerous prizes, including an Emmy Award for the best comedy in 1967. The series was also widely broadcast worldwide and is considered a classic on American television. The ActorsTriviaHogan's Heroes (in VO) was broadcast in France under two titles. When the series landed on the coasts of Canal + in 1987, it was called Stalag 13, according to the name of the prisoner camp where Hogan and his men are locked up.

Werner Klemperer, Howard Caine, Leon Askin and John Banner, who embodied the German officers, were all Jews. The famous leather jacket carried by Colonel Hogan was one of Frank Sinatra's costumes in the Express of Colonel Von Ryan. He came out of the boxes in 2003, more than 30 years after the series, for the film Auto Focus telling the life of Bob Crane. Richard Dawson (who plays the role of the English corporal Peter Newkirk), had interviewed for the role of Hogan, but having too much the British accent he was not selected for the main role. This led to discord during the shooting between him and Bob Crane who was selected for the role of Hogan. FilmingFilming locations: Authors of the card
