- TriviaThe music Potter is listening to when the Korean boy [played by Jason Autajay and not given a name in the episode], is a song from World War I is called "Roses of Picardy." It features lyrics by Frederick Weatherly and music by Haydn Wood, and was published in London in 1916 by Chappell & Company. It was one of the most famous songs of the First World War.
- GoofsWhen Col. Potter mentions that the brandy had been very smooth in 1917, Winchester remarks that "it should be magnificent now." Distilled spirits only age and mature when they are in the barrel. As long as they are stored properly and remain sealed, once bottled they do not change to any significant degree. Potter's bottle, assuming it remained sealed, would have been much the same in 1952 as it had been in 1917. As a wine and spirit connoisseur, Winchester would know this.

A Superb Episode
This series never disappointed. Oh, some episodes aren't great, but they always entertained. This one, however, is superior. It begins when Klinger has to wake Potter in the middle of the night. There is a phone call and Potter has to leave as soon as he can. Hawkeye takes over the camp and does well. While the Colonel is gone, a bus load of Korean children who need minor medical attention enter the camp. The doctors and nurses soon fall in love with them and they are embraced by everyone. Upon his return, it is obvious that Potter is preoccupied. He is sad and angry. He is also waiting for a package to arrive in the mail. After snapping at everyone, there is a tender scene where he shares a piece of fudge with a little Korean boy. He also has Klinger pass out invitations to those closest to him in the unit. There is great anxiety as the gang arrives at his tent at the proffered time. They are worried that something is seriously wrong with the Colonel. The conclusion to this episode makes it hard to keep a dry eye. One of the finest things I've seen on TV.
