if you watch the series and expecting a comedy, you've got half of what you expect due to excellent writing and acting this show perfectly combines Comedy and the serious nature that is the pointless act of war, this episode proves that point.
This episode shows the first Major cast Change as Henry Blake (McLean Stevenson) is discharged, whilst most of the episode is a comedy and a goodbye for the Character, by the last 10 minutes you start to see that the Comedy can be a drama, the goodbye scene is one of the best written and best preformed of the first 3 seasons.
if you watched the first 3 seasons and grew to love Henry you will be deeply moved by his Off Screen death portraying the horrors of war that not everyone makes it home, Henry is sadly the victim of this.
when the laughing and the comedy stops you feel like you're in another series, a well acted and rightly deserved top rated episode.
