Major eventsEdit

• Capt. John McIntyre develops an ulcer and initially believes he is being sent home, but during his going-away party he learns that ulcer cases are no longer being sent home and that he can either be treated in Tokyo and then be assigned to a different unit or be treated at the 4077th and remain there (episode: Check-up). Episode considered by most fans that the episode is the closest thing to Trapper's discharge
• Maj. Frank Burns proposes to Maj. Margaret Houlihan (episode: Bombed).
• Lt. Col. Henry Braymore Blake is discharged, but his plane is shot down over the Sea of Japan and he is killed (episode: Abyssinia, Henry)
• McLean Stevenson left the series to focus on other projects at the end of this episode. His character, however, in honor of him focusing on other projects, died when his plane is shot down over the sea of Japan and it was 1% hilarious and 99% sad. Thus, TV comedy-dramas, or "dramedies", as they were later referred to, were born.

Col. Flagg appearancesEdit

• Officer of the Day - Flagg arrives with a wounded POW whom he has the doctors tend to so he can be taken to Seoul for execution.
• White Gold - Flagg arrives ostensibly to investigate a rash of penicillin thefts, but it turns out that he is actually stealing the penicillin himself to give to North Koreans in exchange for information.

Maj. Sidney Freedman appearanceEdit

• O.R. - Freedman arrives for a poker game but because of the deluge of patients is put to work performing surgery for the first time since medical school

MiscellanyEdit

• Harry Morgan appears in The General Flipped at Dawn as Major General Bartford Hamilton Steele; the producers liked his performance so much that the next season, he was cast as Colonel Sherman T. Potter.
• Robert Alda, Alan Alda's father, played Dr. Anthony Borelli in The Consultant.

In the traumatic and shocking last scene, Radar announces that Henry has been killed when his plane was shot down over the Sea of Japan.
