Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Major Strauss (Joseph Ruskin) of the Gestapo takes charge of Stalag 13 and ships Klink and Schultz off to the Russian front. Hogan devises an elaborate masquerade, contingent upon Newkirk's gift for celebrity impressions. Bruce Kirby, the father of film star Bruno Kirby, appears as Otto Baum, while Martin Kosleck, who played Josef Goebbels in many an American propaganda film during WWII, is here cast as General Mueller. Written by Laurence Marks, "The Gestapo Takeover" first aired on October 25, 1970.
