Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Trapper John?

Answer: John Francis Xavier McIntyre

Apparently, Trapper came from a good Catholic family.

2. Colonel Potter?

Answer: Sherman T. Potter

To the best of my 'M*A*S*H' knowledge, Potter's middle name was revealed to be Tecumseh. He was referred to as Sherman T. Potter. Interestingly enough, one of the creators of the show chose the name of his dentist when the new C.O. of the 4077th was introduced.

3. Hawkeye?

Answer: Benjamin Franklin Pierce

His nickname comes from the main character in the novel 'The Last of the Mohicans,' by James Fenimoore Cooper. Hawkeye's father used to tell him that it was the only book he had ever read. Interestingly enough, the character of Hawkeye is referred to as "the Trapper" in the last of the Leatherstocking Tales, "The Prairie." Were the writers on "M*A*S*H" a fan of the books?

4. What is Klinger's middle initial?

Answer: Q

As with Colonel Potter, I don't think we ever hear Maxwell Klinger's middle name. He only gives his initial.

5. Charles _________Winchester, III?

Answer: Emerson

A member of Boston's high society, Major Winchester is snobby and aloof, but an excellent doctor and one of my favorite characters.

6. Radar?

Answer: Walter Eugene O'Reilly

The innocent farm-boy from Ottumwa, Iowa.

7. What do the intitials BJ stand for in Captain Hunnicutt's name?

Answer: None of these

According to BJ, his parents named him after themselves, Bea and Jay Hunnicutt. His Army Service Record lists his full legal name as BJ Hunnicutt.

8. Father Mulcahy?

Answer: Francis John Patrick Mulcahy

Since he became a priest, his sister is a nun, and he was named after so many saints, Father Mulcahy apparently had a very religious upbringing.

9. Henry _________ Blake?

Answer: Braymore

Must have been a family name.

10. Frank _______ Burns

Answer: Marion

Although we now think of Marion as being a woman's name, we should not forget that John Wayne's given name was Marion Morrison. Not that Frank Burns was anything like 'the Duke'.
