Hawkeye Pierce

Captain Benjamin Franklin "Hawkeye" Pierce was the lead fictional character of the book M*A*S*H (and sequel books) (by Richard Hooker, the pen name of Dr. H. Richard Hornberger), the film M*A*S*H and television series M*A*S*H. The character was played by Donald Sutherland in the film and Alan Alda on television.

After the war

At the end of the television series, with the truce, Hawkeye was the second to last to leave the dismantled camp with the announced goal of returning to his hometown of Crabapple Cove, Maine, to be a local doctor who has the time to get to know his patients instead of the endless flow of casualties he faced in his term of service.
