Newsweek magazine from February 28, 1983

This has been in the back of my mind for decades now. As part of the wardrobe for the local Koreans the show had at least one Stormy Kromer in rotation. Practically speaking it is an "old" style hat that could be easily obtained on a filming budget. The 1954 film "On The Waterfront" also used them to outfit the longshoremen of the New York docks for the same reason.

As the hat is a staple of Upper Michigan culture, in universe it seems odd for it to find it's way all the way to the other side of the world. I like to imagine a young Yooper private had to trade his reminder of home for some penicillin to save his buddy.

Ever since I was a kid I’ve always wondered why every window in camp is completely filthy around the edges. I’d understand anywhere else, but this scene is Hawkeye looking into the O.R.

I remember an episode when Henry sat in a big corrugated iron tank with a bathing cap on. Can't place the episode though. Help please?

I've tried to find whoever is on the PA(the guy who announces when there's wounded in the compound) for ages now, but I can't find anything. The voice sounds the same between (season 8 spoiler just in case) >!Radar leaving and Klinger becoming company clerk!<, so it can't be either of those two. That still begs the question, who the hell is he??
I'm on late season 10 by now, just in case it's somehow a spoiler for later on

I watch MASH a lot as a comforting thing. Usually, its after a particularly long day at work. This scene just makes me laugh.

My mother gets those. She had a premonition about the bombing of Pearl Harbor.

Did she tell anybody?

Nah. She didn't get it til December 9th.

Just finished the episode Blood Brothers. It has a special guest star, Patrick Swaze.

I cried twice. Once when BJ goes in and Hawkeye is contemplating the diagnosis. Second when Father Mulcahy gives his speech.

What an amazing episode!!!

Better than Shakespeare!

Does anyone know who provides the voice for the Colonels mother in his dream sequence?

I think I read somewhere that it was actually Kellye Nakahara but it’s so quick I can’t tell even after a few rewinds.

Also: I know this is a crazy episode and opinions are usually divided about it but I find it interesting how Alan Alda wanted to do this one for a few seasons and finally got the opportunity. This one really freaked me out as a kid.

Am I the only one who cringes through the War Correspondent episode? Watching BJ act like a horny teenager is just the worst. Susan St. James is adorable (I’ve always viewed her as America’s sweetheart) and their chemistry is good, but Aggie falling so fast for BJ and that awful mustache is just not right.

Why didn’t Klinger have to share a tent with anyone?
