I wonder what cuts they did to MASH when it was eventually released...

The censor had issues with MASH and Catch 22, movies with important things to say about war. What the heck? I mean, yeah, over 18s, and the Dentist's suicide attempt is a bit overblown, but it says something about the pressures of a war zone. Important somethings.
