This episode follows the same kind of format as the last episode. Hawkeye, Trapper, and Radar fooling everyone.
A wounded Colonel comes in with the attitude that his mens lives a not as important as the goal that needs to be achieved. So hes willing to sacrifice as many lives as possible for the good of the army. (Exactly the kind of guy Hawkeye hates.) There are episodes like this throughout the entire series where Hawkeye doesn't see eye to eye with someone in command's methods.
Many clever pranks are pulled, but the funniest parts are when the colonel (played very well by Leslie Nielson) thinks that both Margaret and Frank are coming on to him!moreless
AIRED:
Hawkeye and Trapper operate on a famous Colonel - after discovering that he is particularly ruthless about sacrificing his men, they come up with a scheme to get him sent back to the states with a little unwitting help from Frank, Margaret, and a drunk Henry.
