The character Henry Blake left the show because his discharge papers came through, but sadly on his flight home, his plane was show down over the Sea of Japan. He did not survive the crash. McLean Stevenson, who played the Colonel decided to leave the show because he was tired of his supporting role to Alan Alda and Wayne Rogers. He was also unsure of the success of the show. He admitted years later that he regretted his decision to leave.
