A ground-level farewell to Radar O'Reilly-told from the eyes of a young aidman who loved him in the simple, understated way soldiers love the people who keep them alive. This story slips into the boots of Cary Dalton, a stretcher-bearer at the 4077th, following him through the routines, chaos, and small moments that make up the days around Radar's departure. No laugh track. No spotlight. Just the quiet truth of what it feels like to lose the heart of the camp while the war refuses to pause for goodbyes. If you've ever wondered what M*A*S*H looks like from the edges of the frame, this is that story.
