Before he played Cpl. Klinger on MASH, Jamie Farr really was in the Army.

He was requested to call the training base's Operations Center to get an question answered, but when he called...

"This is Farr in Barracks 'G'."

"Say again?"

"Farr in Barracks 'G'."

The line went dead.

Jamie attempted to reestablish the connection, but heard a commotion approaching. Sirens.

The base Fire Department arrived, and, as he was the only one there, they asked him, "Where's the fire?"

"What fire?"

"Command Ops notified us someone called, said 'fire in barracks G'."

Oops.
