In 1951, the 4077th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital in South Korea is assigned two new surgeons, Hawkeye Pierce and Duke Forrest, who arrive in a stolen Army Jeep. The three doctors have little respect for military protocol, having been drafted into the Army, and are prone to pranks, womanizing, and heavy drinking.
