For my M*A*S*H reimagining Blake is not a draftee. Instead he’s career military, counting out the last few days until his twenty years are in and he can finally retire.
He only overlaps with Hawkeye for one year of service before his time in Korea is up. The reason you see such an uptick in Henry’s overall demeanor is this excitement about heading home… SPOILER ALERT… he doesn’t make it.
Ugh Really! You had to spoil the end of the episode! Now I might as well not even watch it. 🙁
Great drawings though.
