The two went back to the swamp to pack what they would need for the trip. When they got there Frank was still asleep.
"Hey Frank," Hawkeye got no reply, "Is that a North Korean I see going into Major Houlihan's tent?"
Franks response to this by jumping out of bed and running out of the swamp shouting
"Margaret!"
"Works every time, shall we have a martini before we leave?" asked Hawkeye.
"You can but I am not, we have a long trip ahead of us and we need clear heads. Anyway Radar might have finished breakfast by now"
"Your right lets go find him" Hawkeye said and put down his martini glass. He grabbed his khaki jacket. The two best friends went over to the mess tent to find Radar shovelling supposed food into his mouth.
"Ready?"
"Yes sir" Radar said eating his last mouthful and picking up his tray.

The jeep crawled out of the 4077th heading towards the 5083rd with its three passengers and supplies.
"Ahh" sighed Hawkeye "the open road, don't you just love it?"
"Sure do," replied BJ.
They travelled down the bumpy road for a bit in silence until Hawkeye said, "Hey lets sing 99 bottles of beer on the wall"
"Why not" said BJ.
"99 bottles of beer on the wall, 99 bottles of beer" they sang in unison.
This helped BJ take his mind off his stomach a bit until they got down to 17 bottles left.
"17 bottles of beer, Hawk pull over!"
"Why?"
"Just do it" BJ said impatiently while Radar continued singing as if he hadn't realised they had stopped singing. Hawkeye pulled over on the verge and BJ jumped out and ran into the bushes.
"Where did Captain Hunnicutt go?" Radar asked finally realising they had stopped.
"To deal with some business"
"Oh" Radar simply said and continued humming the tune.
BJ got far enough into the bushes out of sight of Hawkeye and threw up.
Once he was sure he wasn't going to reach again he wiped his mouth so not to let
Hawkeye know he was sick. Maybe his stomachache would go now. He returned to the jeep.
"Now what did I tell you about using the latrine before we leave?" Hawkeye joked.
"Sorry dad" BJ returned and Hawkeye started up the engine again and they were off.

It got to about 1 o'clock and they had played all the games they could possibly think of.
"How about we stop for lunch, there a nice bit of grass there"
"Yeah, I am starving," added Radar.
They parked the jeep and laid out in the sun. Radar was straight into his food. BJ on the other hand picked at his, nibbling on the corners.
"I say stay here for 20 minutes then get back on the road so we avoid rush hour" joked Hawkeye.
"Sure" replied BJ
"Your not eating much are you?" noticed Hawkeye.
Great, thought BJ, now he knows some thing is up.
"Oh I am not hungry"
"That's understandable with this food"
"Yeah, I am going to go for a walk for a bit, I'll be back in a minute" BJ went in to the forest.
Radar had finished his lunch and was leaning up against a tree stump admiring the view.
"This would be a great place if there wasn't a war on."
"Sure would be but its not me you have to convince." Hawkeye wanted to go home so badly but because of the continuous casualties he was stuck miles away from his father.
After nearly fifteen minutes of dreaming about home Hawkeye said "It's nearly time to go, wonder where BJ is."
"I'll go see" Radar got up and walked in the direction BJ went in. He soon found him sitting on the ground by a stream. He sat down next to him.
"Beautiful isn't it?" said BJ.
"Sure is" Radar agreed. "If you don't mind me saying sir you don't look to well but I
am not a doctor so I wouldn't really know."
"I am ok just feeling a bit sensitive that's all" BJ tried to reassure.
"Should I get Captain Pierce?" Radar asked trying to do the best he could.
"No don't worry him, I am ok now." BJ promised himself if he was sick one more time he would tell Hawkeye because now it was starting to scare him. He was a doctor and he couldn't even diagnose himself.
"Ok" Radar said.
They walked back to meet Hawkeye who was back in the jeep.
"Thought you converted to the enemy."
"Don't be silly they don't have a mad surgeon like you to keep me company."
"Very funny."
"I know, I thought I would become a comedian after the war."
"Very good."
"I try my best."
The two jumped back into the jeep to continue their journey.
"Uh oh"
"What?" Hawkeye and BJ said in unison.
"Take cover!" The three ducked as far down into the jeep as they could when bombs and artillery began to fall all around them.
