MASH is the tv show that started my interest in military ambulances and equipment. I watched that show faithfully when I grew up as a kid and still enjoy watching it.
It has led to me owning at one point in my life 20 army vehicles (now down to my 3 favourite, yes,all carry stretchers!) and a lifetime of collecting Canadian military field equipment of which takes up my entire 1280 square foot basement. Medical equipment being most favourite!
It’s amazing how a tv show can influence a person and often set them on a lifetime path.
It shows on Facebook that it’s MASH’s 50th anniversary today of the start of the show way back in 1972!
My other show I watched as a kid was SWAT which explains my interest in Police Vehicles but we won’t discuss that hobby. One at a time!
How many other MLU’ers were influenced by MASH. I’m hoping I’m not the only one?
