A devotee to the Hogan's Heroes fandom. I also enjoy Star Wars, X-Files, Combat!, Harry Potter, Rat Patrol, LOST, Stargate: Atlantis, Temeraire, and West Wing fanfics as well.
If you have nothing better to do, feel free to check out my C2: "The Best of HH Fanfiction." It was the first C2 in the fandom and can be a good introduction into the types of stories and styles one can expect in the Hogan's Heroes fandom. Next update will be in 2012-ish.

Newest additions feature an object lesson in choosing officers who handle sensitive material, an instance where Hogan gets far more than he bargains for when trying to contact an agent, an introductory Act One to an impressive vision of Klink and Schultz, a gritty and touching "The End" story to operations at Stalag 13, and a fan favorite HH doctor who gets his own story... Check 'em out if you haven't already!
The Standard Disclaimer: I don't own the characters and I'm not making any money off of them. Fanfic = Free Advertising.
Works in Progress:
Rat Patrol: Desert Sketches: A series of vignettes on RP characters. Tie-in to to Desert Horizons.
Special thanks to my two betas, O-Ra and Victoria, who managed to proof the first chapter, "Return to Owner", in time for a Christmas post. Thanks you two!! Of course any remaining goofs are all mine.
Rat Patrol: Desert Horizons: An ambitious undertaking that chronicles the trials and tribulations of Hans Dietrich; from Poland to VE-Day.
LOST: Ozymandias: A short piece on the man who is Jacob's nemesis.
When is your next Update...? It looks like the end of 2011(strikethrough), beginning of 2012, is my new target to aim for an FF(dot)net update. Thanks for bearing with me and feel free to check out, if you haven't already, my short Dietrich story "Rats!" on my LJ. I also have two other WiPs on LJ although they have sloth-like updates.
Anon Review Reply: Wooden Nissen huts? Yes, there were wooden Nissen huts in use by the British RAF during WWII. They weren't especially common (which is why you won't find their existence on the Wikipedia page, for example), but they were there. Believe me, I spent a couple hours worth of research before making David's Nissen hut into wood. I thought it fitting: wood would be would be much more appropriate for a temporary structure (not to mention more comfortable) in a desert environ. Thanks for the review.

Current Fav. FanFictions:
Star Wars fanfiction "To turn to the Dark Side, Press Three" by frodogenic. PG. This is one of those stories that one should enjoy even if you're completely unfamiliar to the fandom. The only thing the reader needs to bring to this story is the knowledge that there are aspects of (any & all) health care systems that are inherently ridiculous... If you meet this prerequisite and find that this fanfic doesn't startle a laugh out of you than it may be time for you to visit the doctor!
Harry Potter fanfictions "Resonance", "Revolution", and "Resolution" (WIP) by GreenGecko. PG13. 'Gecko makes her own canon. The world Harry lives and works in, is both real and magical. Subtle readers be on the lookout for symbols gallore - also be prepared to mark three or four days off your calendar if you choose to read: epic is only the beginning. . . .
