Plot
Hawkeye writes another letter home to his father, detailing some of the recent events at the 4077th: amongst the latest batch of wounded is a soldier with a live grenade shot into his body, and Sergeant Condon, who reminds the doctors to give him the "right color" blood. Hawkeye, Trapper and Ginger decide to teach Condon a lesson on racism. The monthly staff meeting was also held—-although the previous meeting was held six months earlier—and the latest meeting appears to be no more productive than the previous one, which, according to Radar's minutes, was "declared a shambles". Henry also receives a home movie of his daughter's birthday party from his wife, which he watches in his office with Hawkeye, Trapper and Radar-—along with footage from a few years previously of Henry and his wife goofing in front of the camera with their neighbors.
