M*A*S*H unit news story--end of an era (relates to TV show)
http://www.estripes.com/article.asp?section=104&article=24961

Time may be running out to preserve the home of the U.S. Army unit that inspired the “M*A*S*H” (Mobile Army Surgical Hospital) book, movie and television series.

From the Korean War until 1970, Camp Mosier, near Uijongbu City, South Korea, was the home of the 43rd MASH. The unit was the subject of the book by U.S. Army surgeon Capt. H. Richard Hornberger, which inspired the popular movie and television series of the same name.

Interesting article.

1. I know an easy way to preserve it...
invade North Korea. I'm sure Wayne Rogers would absolutely love the resurgence in publicity.

3. WMDs? Avenge 9-11? Advance freedom? Dumb excuses. But...
...But for Wayne Rogers, I'd gladly support a war and sacrifice half my graduating senior class. The man is a national treasure.
