M*A*S*H Finale’s 30th Anniversary: Goodbye, Farewell, and Amen: Theme from M*A*S*H

Where were you almost 30 years ago, on Feb. 28, 1983, when the television show M*A*S*H aired its final episode “Goodbye, Farewell, and Amen”?

I was in a little flea-ridden basement apartment taking a break from studies and grading English compositions during my final semester as an MA in communication studies.

The show had been a constant during my college days. Whatever else happened in our lives, we all stopped at 10:30 and watched the show about reluctant army docs in America’s “forgotten war” in Korea. It shaped our generation’s thoughts about war and the military and foreign policy.
