RIP Harry Morgan

[PhotonWrangler]

Harry Morgan, one of the stalwart characters of M*A*S*H, the old Dragnet TV series and countless movies has passed. I'm going to miss him. I've always enjoyed his work.

Goodnight sir; they're flying the flag at half staff at the 4077. :candle:

96 years is a pretty good run.

In addition to the movies and television, I've heard his distinctive voice in several of the "old time radio" shows that are now available on the internet.

He really was a great entertainer, and I loved his work. 96 year is still not enough. sigh

What? I had no idea. I must have missed this news in our papers. I loved Harry as Sherman Potter. RIP.

A movie called "The Cat From Outer Space" (1978) had both MASH commanding officers in it.
Harry Morgan was in a lot of westerns and several war movies including John Wayne's The Shootist and The Shores Of Tripoli.
I think however that Morgan was best as comedy instead of drama myself.

Remember the pre-Col.Potter MASH episode where Harry Morgan guest stars as the near-crazy general or some such thing? Just hilarious. :)

I haven't thought about Harry Morgan in a while, I guess I'm surprised (& happy) that he was around for so long.
