Wasn't there a movie where they solved this problem by filling their
pockets with dirt, then slowly letting it fall down inside their pant legs
as they walked around the prison compound. Stalag 17?




The 'Great Escape'.

Thanks!

I think in Stalag 17, they stored a lot in the rafters of their
building.

IIRC that movie led to Hogan's Heroes.
