MASH is a very serious show that has a lot of comedy in it to soften the seriousness of the theme.
No. It was based on the MASH unit 8055.Answer 1There were seven MASH units in the Korean War: 8054th Evacuation Hospital8055th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital (this was the unit the author of MASH was assigned to)8063rd Mobile Army Surgical Hospital (this unit was mentioned frequently on the TV show MASH)8076th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital8209th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital8225th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital8228th Mobile Army Surgical HospitalAnswer 2Actually there was a mash 4077 and the tv show was based on, but after the tv show came out the unit was getting to much static and publicity so they changes the name to the 43rd mash. The motto really was "best care anywhere".Answer 3The author of the book and resulting TV series was assigned to the 8055th MASH on which he based the fictitious 4077th MASH.
