It always seems weird to wish someone a Happy Memorial Day.
Looking back, I'm proud of my military service.
And especially proud to have been a part of MASH for four years. One thing we always did on that show was pay tribute to the brave men and women who served -- most of them not voluntarily. They sacrificed for the good of the country -- many making the ultimate sacrifice.
As time marches on, the Korean conflict is becoming more and more just a blip, a brief footnote in history. I honestly think that without MASH it would today be largely forgotten. So to m, that's the show's greatest legacy -- to keep alive the memory of that conflict and honor those who served.
And to all the people who served in Desert Storm and Vietnam and all the other wars/police actions/whatever -- let's not forget a single one, ever.
I salute you one and all.
