Harry Morgan died at age 96. I am a huge M*A*S*H fan. He was one of my favorite characters.

When my dad owned his advertising agency, I met many stars when they flew in to do commercials. Harry was one of the people who came in and did a whole series of commercials. Every once in a while, my dad let me take off work and hang out on the sets. Harry and I used to play chess- he was a master- and he was always SO cool to me. I gotta try to find pictures of us.

That is one thing about getting older, losing celebrities you really connected with. Rest In Peace Col. Potter. Life well lived.

Wow...96.

I still remember him on Dragnet...

Yes, Dragnet and Pete & Gladys. I'll never forget the episode of MASH when they (Radar?) surprised him with a horse. I sobbed like a baby. He was one of my favorite actors.

My DH and I were talking about this tonight and Radar giving him the horse was my favorite also. He was such a wonderful guy. I know actors are acting but he made it seem like that was the kind of guy he really was. I can still seeing him riding his horse when the war finally ended and they all had to find transport and he took his horse.

I loved him in Dragnet. He lived a long time. God bless him.

RIP my Dear Col Potter..

Me, too! I don't know how many times I have watched every single episode of that series. I watched it growing up and then again as an adult. The horse episode was the best, though. When my grandma moved in with me, we watched MASH a lot together, too. That was the third period of time in my life when I watched the show a lot.
