I hated all the anti-military trash in MASH. Since that was based on the Korean war (and somewhat of the Vietnam war since that was going on while the show we aired), think about it while we deal with NK today. If we had been more strident in the Korean war there might not be a NK today, or if there were it’d be smaller.

I once read that many of the stats in the MASH show were from a real MASH unit in the Korean war. You know, the stats Pierce would sometimes ramble off when he goes on one of his why-are-we-here rants. I think those #’s were pretty impressive.

One of the best episodes was the one where the entire episode was shown from the point of view of the patient.
