EPILOGUE: FROM THE AUTHOR
I sit here now, having finished the most of the updates, additions and revisions to something that I created as an escape from a miserable experience (more to follow soon) I feel very humbled by the masses of reviews and comments that I have received on my works and owe a big thanks to all.
This story, although not perfect in the eyes of some, was modeled on my feelings, thoughts, social and historical knowledge and I've tried to get into the characters shoes as best as possible.
It may come as a surprise to realize that some of the events I write about here are based on various experiences I've had. Some examples: The death of Radar, Margaret and Hawkeye encountering Scully and a few others.
I have tried my best to think how the characters would, but however no matter how wonderful I write I can't fill the boots of Larry Gelbart, Alan Alda and all the other wonderful writers.
I owe an eternal debt of gratitude to MASH, it's helped me thorough some very tough times, given me a lot of laughter, comfort, joy and in some cases, a lot of sorrow.
I hope that my writing contribute someway to keeping that alive.
Again, to all those that have reviewed and commented on my work, thank you very much.
I hope you enjoy my work, and if not, let me know.
