About Attias[]

Towards the end of the episode "Post Op", Attias arrives with a truck of Turkish soldiers who all want to volunteer as blood donors as a token of appreciation to the MASH for saving the life of their captain. "It's a small thing to do for such brave people," he tells Hawkeye. Just as his troops are marching into the mess tent to the applause of the MASH personnel, Attias is pushed aside as Frank, reluctant to donate blood, dashes out pursued by Klinger. "What's wrong with him? he asks Hawkeye. "He's one of our brave people," Attias is told.
