April-May 1953: China has made an incredible offer, to return a handful of Prisoners of War too wounded for their own medical facilities. Hawkeye and Trapper, giving up their R&R; leave in Tokyo, accompany Frank, Klinger and Radar on a bus ride deep into North Korea to an agreed-upon meeting place called “Rainbow Bridge” to receive the prisoners, but Major Burns decides to be a hero and brings a gun with him, in violation of the agreement. This theme of POW wounded exchange was repeated in 5/16.
This episode is notabe for the soundtrack inclusion of Loudon Wainwright III's song about the desire of the soldiers in Korea to visit Tokyo for its comforts, which plays over the action during the bus ride, and at other times during episode.
