Aww. *Sniff* My story is finished. I wanna thank all those who posted reviews - yes, even the more unfavourable ones - they really mean a lot to me. Thanks for being faithful to this story, even though I took a lot of time to get updates posted. But, it's not all sad. With this story out of the way, I'll have time to work on others.

Baby Blues

Epilogue

The 4077th had a wedding the next week - not the first, and not the last, but the most memorable. All the personnel were amazed to find that Korea's biggest enemies actually weren't enemies - just 2 people, very much in love.

And I'd like to tell you that this story had a happy ending. But I can't do that. Sadly, 3 months after her wedding, Margaret Houlihan was killed - captured, tortured, and eventually murdered by North Korean soldiers. Her body was never recovered.

And Hawkeye Pierce recovered, eventually. He never remarried, never chased another girl. He remained single for the rest of his life, which also wasn't very long. 2 weeks after the war ended, he shot himself, unable to deal with first the death of his bride, and then, 3 days after returning home, the death of his father. But he had one thing that no one else in the world had. A love for his wife that really did blossom from childhood.

Those of us who were around Margaret and Hawkeye will always remember them for what they were - 2 stars shining in the darkness that was the war. Their story will be told for as long as the remaining members of that M*A*S*H live - Father Francis Mulchahy, Sherman Potter, Charles Winchester, Radar O'Reilly, Max Klinger, and myself, BJ Hunnicut.
