FYI: Calling a Soldier, who is serving in the U.S. Army as a Medic, a "Corpsman" is incorrect. A Corpsman is a U.S. Navy Sailor who has been trained as a combat medic and assigned to a U.S. Marine Corps. combat unit. When a U.S. Army Soldier is wounded in combat he or his squad mate yells out "Medic"! Only a wounded Marine would yell out "Corpsman". The Army has Medics. The Marine Corps. has Corpsman. The script writers in MASH made this mistake often during the series. ([[User talk:Mkshane039|talk]]) 21:42, 11 May 2021 (EST) | |||

Revision as of 01:40, 13 May 2021
Complete?
My first major contribution, I've had this page in my files waiting to be added here. It covers everything I remember seeing in the series during a runthrough, except for episodes using stock footage, which I hope to add later if I see anything new. I went for the best screencaps I could get and spent a lot of time researching to make sure I got as much detail correct as possible with a minimum of spoilers, though I'm sure there's more to add/correct. - IGemini 04:00, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
Colt Commander
I know that one episode, which has Hawkeye aiding a wounded North Korean soldier, he is forced to help by the soldier's friend, who uses an unmistakable SKS rifle, which would be as accurate as a Mosin Nagant.
I wish I had images of the episode, but unfortunately, I do not.- Maxman 22:00, 27 July 2012 (EST)
- You're right, there's an SKS. I've had a new set of images and entries in planning including that one, still got a couple details to check. Might have them up this weekend. - IGemini 23:30, 27 July 2012 (CDT)
The title escapes me right now but in the episode where Major Hulahan thinks she's pregnant an injured soldier is holding Major Winchester hostage with his sidearm. It's only for a brief moment but you can see the hammer is a skeletonized type. Does anyone know when these would've actually come out? Ballistics_Expert2
- It's not skeletonized in the sense we think of in modern firearms, but that "notched" hammer is actually a feature of the earlier Star pistols--likely made in the 20s. It's used a couple other times in the first two seasons. - IGemini 16:57, 28 July 2012 (CDT)
Colt Single Action Army
Are those really Colt Single Action Army revolvers? I'd say that it is more like that they are Ruger Blackhawks. --Wicket1138 (talk) 01:25, 4 November 2012 (EDT)
- If you can tell the difference without any clear shots of the crosspins on the frame (or lack thereof), please share. IGemini (talk) 12:24, 25 November 2012 (EST)
MP40?
I was just wondering, how historically accurate is it for a Korean soldier to be using an MP40? I've never seen any evidence of Koreans using one during the war.--Gunner5
- It's not. Pretty much anything the KPA had were Soviet surplus or licensed copies. Even as a Vietnam reference (where the MP40 has recorded use), it's a really distant one. Maybe the armorer had an off-day. IGemini (talk) 12:24, 25 November 2012 (EST)
Clutter
A lot of these screencaps REALLY need to be deleted or moved here, especially with the rifles. IMFDB's Rules, Standards, and Principles page explicity states a 10-image per-weapon limit on a page with multiple users. It doesn't need EVERY instance of a weapon showing up, or ten images of Klinger with the same one. Plenty of them are too blurry, just show a part of the stock or barrel, or simply way too dark. IGemini (talk) 12:24, 25 November 2012 (EST)
- If this article would be split into single seasons, as its done with most other tv series, there would be a few images per season. -Wicket1138 (talk) 15:23, 25 November 2012 (EST)

Extra entries
M116 Pack Howitzer
In a poker wager, Hawkeye was the winner of an army jeep from a supply sergeant in Episode 7.11 "Dear Comrade." However, he is delivered what appears to be an M116 pack howitzer.
Older M1 Carbine?
Is it me or is Klinger's M1 lack the adjustable rear sight (or any rear sight) and bayonet lug? --Maxman (talk) 15:48, 3 October 2015 (EDT)
M1919A4 on turret
That's a Browning M2HB. --Maxman (talk) 17:15, 2 April 2016 (EDT)
