The History Channel will be airing a documentary titled “History vs. Hollywood: M*A*S*H Under Fire” that compares the surgeons from the M*A*S*H TV series to those who actually served in the Korean Conflict and risked their lives to save others. TV Guide has the following:
Historians contrast the real stories of field surgeons during the Korean War against their counterparts as depicted in Robert Altman’s classic 1970 film and the hit TV series. Highlights include clips and interviews with Altman, Donald Sutherland and writer Larry Gelbart, along with surgeons and nurses from Korean War MASH units. Burt Reynolds narrates.”
This has aired before.
