To quote my gf, "Who tf names their kid "Deckland"?"
EDIT: I know a couple of people named Declan, as well as Elvis Costello's real first and Tony Slattery's middle name, plus the Gooner centre mid. It's a nice Celtic name. "Deckland" on the other hand is awful.
I read these were the most flavourful. Or maybe just the least disappointing. I'll give these a go this weekend...
Astute viewers of M*A*S*H may recall in the earliest episodes of the show, there was a particular extra who was often seen walking around in the background, or at the very least in crowd scenes: a young Black man who wore a jeep cap like Radar. Much like Roy Goldman, this fellow came from HOGAN'S HEROES, where, like Roy, he was a background POW for all six seasons of that show (and also wore a very similar uniform).
For the longest time, this man's identity was unknown, but evidently, thanks to some internet sleuthing, his identity was finally revealed as being one Walter Smith. As it turns out, it appears his entire career was built on just being a background extra, ranging from a POW in WW2 and a corpsman in the Korean War, to a townsperson in westerns, to even a bar patron at Cheers.
Not sure why he didn't stick around M*A*S*H like Goldman did, but if you also watch HOGAN'S HEROES, you'll notice the two of them are almost always seen together along with a third POW in the background of almost every single episode. (Goldman even had a line in at least one episode).
What is that tower used for? Genuine question
