What is the TV show MASH about?

The show was set during the Korean War (1950-53) and was about life in a Mobile Army Surgical Hospital (hence the acronym: M.A.S.H.). Korea was the first conflict in which the concept of front line medical/surgical care was introduced to the ugly business of war, and was an unparalleled success. The lead characters were surgeons and allied health care personnel. The Armed Forces had no previous experience with doctors on the front line, and the show reflected the difficulty of imposing army discipline on surgeons. In 1972, 19 years after the close of the Korean conflict, "MASH 4077" debuted, at the height of the Viet Nam conflict. The humor, as well as the seriousness of the subject matter reflected strong antiwar feelings that were widespread at that time.

Through early morning fog I see

visions of the things to be

the pains that are withheld for me

I realize and I can see

That suicide is painless

It brings on many changes

and I can take or leave it if I please

The game of life is hard to play

I'm gonna lose it anyway

The losing card I'll someday lay

so this is all I have to say

Suicide is painless

It brings on many changes

and I can take or leave it if I please

The sword of time will pierce our skins

it doesn't hurt when it begins

but as it works its way on in

the pain grows stronger....watch it grin

Suicide is painless

It brings on many changes

and I can take or leave it if I please

A brave man once requested me

to answer questions that are key

'is it to be or not to be'

and I replied 'oh why ask me?'

'Cause suicide is painless

it brings on many changes

and I can take or leave it if I please

.... and you can do the same thing if you choose
