 I should have specified the starring regulars in my question
dealing with multiple characters by one actor. I did not think
of all the civilians or non-M*A*S*H people when I asked the question.
Also , I have since realized that Ugly John (a.k.a. the MP Muldoon)
is an Austrailian. My apologies for the mistake but even Winchester
made that error. So I rephrase my second question:
What starring regular character has been played by two actors?
(Hopefully I will now get the answer I was looking for.)

Didn't Hawkeye also salute at the end of his moving eulogy to
Capt. Tuttle? (How 'bout it erewhon?)

The theme song is "Suicide is Painless"

During one episode, where Hotlips get drunk, she says to Col. Blake,
"You look like my father just before he died." !!?! (Margaret's father
was on a later episode. Bad continuity, folks.)

During the recent brush/forest fires in California, the outdoor
set for M*A*S*H was destroyed. Most of the scenes (including the
ones in the compound) are shot on a sound stage, however.

Anyone out there got the words to "Suicide is Painless"?

at first glance, yes.  but its not implausible at all.  my biological
father died in 1968, but my foster father is still around, and i refer
to him as "my father", which he is in all respects except genetics.

Father Mulcahey (sp?) was played by someone other than the present 
actor (William Christopher) in the first episode.  In that one only,
the priest was a man called "Red" in reference to his hair.  After
that episode, which was the pilot obviously, the priest was WC.
