    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      The episode is about a non-existing Captain Tuttle. The ending credit read: Captain Tuttle as Himself
    • Goofs
      When General Clayton arrives, he salutes the camp personnel assembled before him and they return the salute, which is incorrect. When personnel are assembled in formation, the individual in charge should have called them to attention and then that individual alone would have given a salute on behalf of the entire formation.
    • Quotes
      • Capt. Benjamin Franklin "Hawkeye" Pierce: We can all be comforted by the thought that he's not really gone, there's a little Tuttle left in all of us, in fact you might say that all of us together made up Tuttle.
    • Crazy credits
      The fictive character "Captain Tuttle" whom we never see is, listed in the credits as "Himself".
