Hawkeye and Trapper try to get the title object for their unit, but of course they should just leave it to Radar.  Incidentally, this is the second episode of the season where Radar is referred to as a virgin.  The best scene here is the press conference with Gen. Mitchell (Robert F. Simon, in his second appearance).  And the war has apparently been going on for two years, although maybe Hawkeye is rounding up.

Helen Funai, who was Minnie Chan in the Gidget TV-movies, is Betty Lou here.  Jerry Harper, who plays Phillips, was previously a nameless Sergeant.  Eldon Quick makes his first appearance as Capt. Sloan.  Ted Gehring is Major Arnold Morris here but would be Sgt. Rhoden later.  Sarah Fankboner, previously Nurse Klein, is now Nurse Owens.
