2. Our favorite M*A*S*H residents learn that Steele is 100% GI, meaning that the camp has to be cleaned up. Uniforms are to be pressed, haircuts and shaves are to be mandatory, and living quarters are to be 'ship-shape'. Frank Burns does his part, dusting the Swamp, until he arrives at Hawkeye's corner of the tent. Hawkeye becomes defensive when Frank approaches his 'medical magazines'.
