Theme Music
The theme music for Hogan's Heroes was composed by Jerry Fielding, although some musicologists have pointed out the strong similarity between the theme song and the Horstwessellied. The title of the theme music is "March" or "Hogan's Heroes March". There are lyrics to the title music. While they were never sung in the show, they were performed on an album titled "Hogan's Heroes Sing The Best of World War II". The drums were performed by Bob Crane, who was an accomplished drummer.

A spur to valiant and magnanimous deeds,

Left alone against my will,
To go now limping as before,
