Harry Morgan BeforeM*A*S*H


Before he played the ethical, caring Colonel Potter on M*A*S*H, Harry Morgan had a dramatically different guest starring role on the show.




Mr. Morgan's appearance as the eccentric, racist General Steele would be the first time M*A*S*H viewers would see him. Show producers were so fond of him, that they asked him to step in as Colonel Potter when Maclean Stevenson left the show, hoping that nobody would remember his first appearance.
