( Kim ll Sung was highly deadly mass-murderer, communist head of all North Korea and the starter of the entire Korean War. He was never mentioned on Mash!)
In the ep where Klinger got a kidney stone and was feverish and talked to a "dead soldier's ghost". BJ later shows up with Klinger's removed kidney stone and says it has the faces of Lebanese presidents. This refers to Klinger being Lebanese in ancestry.
In real life there has only been presidents of Lebanon since 1926. At the time and for about 20 more years Lebanon would be French Mandated territory. As a historian I know Lebanon spent hundreds of years up to about 1918 being Ottoman Empire territory under the Turkish leadership in Istanbul. Did the show's writers actually know all that?
