TRIVIA (2)
ADD TRIVIA
- The miniature park is surrounded by white-painted rocks. Several seasons ago, Potter had forbidden any rock-painting, because the white stones could give their position away to the enemy at night. (Frank suggested painting only the top half of the rocks and then turning them over at night.)
  EDIT SHARE
- Hawkeye finishes his letter, and asks Nurse Kellye to send it, but later on he is still finishing writing it.

  EDIT SHARE
- B.J.: It's got everything--trees, bushes, green...ground?

ALLUSIONS (2)
ADD ALLUSIONS
- The episode title is a pun of, "Give 'em Hell, Harry!", a biographical play about President Harry Truman, written by Samuel Gallu. The line became a slogan for Truman supporters.
  EDIT SHARE
- Kim Han: You need any more help, just whistle. You know how to do that?
  Margaret: Sure. You just put your lips together and blow.
  
  The young Korean and Margaret quote Lauren Bacall's lines from "To Have And Have Not" (1944).
