Name of fictional soldier in MASH?
There were a couple of memorable fictitious soldiers in M*A*S*H.
One was Private Charles Lamb, a name invented when Radar was trying to save a lamb from becoming the main course in a Greek feast held in honour of the 4077th. He sent the lamb back home to Iowa, and had discharge papers drawn up for Private Charles Lamb to divert suspicion away from what he was doing.
The second was Captain Tuttle, initially invented by Hawkeye and Trapper, who then find that they need to keep the ruse running. After awhile, almost everyone at the 4077th is convinced they have seen or met Tuttle, and eventually Hawkeye kills him off by having Tuttle leap out of a helicopter to tend a wounded soldier, but forget his parachute.
