Relive your favorite M*A*S*H moments with this three-disc DVD Collector's Edition containing all 24 classic Season One episodes! Korea, 1950.

Incoming helicopters full of wounded brought the horrors of war to them daily and sometimes bullets flew right outside the operating room door. Hilarity and hijinks were all that kept them sane. Now journey back to that special place where friendships were forged, laughter was found and drinks were served. |
