Plot Summary: Hawkeye's picnic date with new nurse Lieutenant
Marquette is interrupted by gunshots, which Hawkeye believes to be from
Frank Burns, testing his new pistol, but as he and Margaret insist he
has yet to fire a shot, the gunshots continue, confirming they are
coming from a sniper. The four head back to the camp, where everyone
but Radar and Blake, who are both in the showers shelters in the main
hospital building, eventually managing to treat casualties which soon
arrive.
Help from headquarters is not immediately forthcoming, and Frank's
attempts to be "a real man" (encouraged by Margaret) leads him and
Hawkeye to ambush a figure in the mess tent, who turns out to be Radar,
desperate for food. It's not until the following day that outside help
arrives, in the form of a US army helicopter firing shots at the
sniper. Hawkeye operates on the sniper, and reports to the Swampmen
that the sniper targeted the camp in the belief that he was firing on
MacArthur's headquarters.
Hope you enjoy it,
Kenny, Meds & Al
