Nice Story for MASH Fans

The main story itself is not bad. A little boy gets injured, the doctors fix him up, and the MASH regulars take turns spending time with him. Who wouldn't enjoy such a storyline? I especially liked the scenes where the boy genuinely seemed to be laughing.

One thing that bugged me more than usual is when Henry Blake goofed up reading the map. Not believable, as a viewer. An educated military man should've been able to easily identify what the map was, and what it was not. Quite bizarre. This kind of scene truly puzzles me, for as wonderful as much of the writing is, they still decided to include something like this. Plus, it's not even remotely funny, in my eyes.

The parting shot of Trapper standing and watching the truck driving away was a bit sappy, almost maudlin.
