Overview
Henry receives a citation for the camp achieving the best efficiency rating of any M*A*S*H unit, and then Brigadier General Hammond reassigns him to Tokyo. Frank then changes the camp to be more military, and he confiscates Hawkeye's and Trapper's still. They use forged passes to go to Tokyo to convince Henry to come back and end up pretending Radar is sick. Their ruse is revealed but Henry decides to return anyway.[1][2][3][4][5]
