Is this the name of a M*A*S*H character or 1970s rock and roll star?
Were these people acquaintances of Hawkeye or Hawkwind?
M*A*S*H took place during the Korean War, a conflict that ended in July 1953. Weeks earlier, a song by Bill Haley & His Comets called "Crazy Man, Crazy" peaked at No. 12 on the Billboard Juke Box chart. It is widely considered to be the first rock & roll song to make the charts.
While there may little crossover between the real war and rock music, the M*A*S*H television show dominated ratings in the 1970s, a decade also considered to be the peak of stadium-filling rock bands.
That got us thinking — can you tell the difference between a M*A*S*H characters and Seventies rocker? Look at the names below and take a guess!

You rock! Way to strum through that with easy. Nice work!"
Captain Spalding was a wink to the Marx Brothers and their song "Hooray for Captain Spalding".
In real life Spalding was a decorated WW 1 captain who became the movie studios trusted
supplier of cocaine to the stars. They didn't have to worry about the quality of the drugs
or that Spalding might try to blackmail any of them.
I guess I didn’t rock this quiz, I thought I knew my mash characters better than this. I hope to do better next quiz 😊
Missed unlucky #13. What's ironic, and funny, is that character is in the picture next to my score.
