"Carry On, Hawkeye" was the 35th episode of the M*A*S*H television series, and eleventh of season two. The episode aired on November 24, 1973.
The 4077th MASH is in the midst of a flu epidemic, with Trapper bedridden, soon followed by Henry Blake and Frank Burns, leaving Hawkeye as the only surgeon and Margaret Houlihan as acting Commanding Officer. Calls to headquarters for another surgeon prove fruitless, so Father Mulcahy and Radar are called to provide assistance in the operating room as Hawkeye starts developing flu symptoms.
The episode netted director Jackie Cooper an Emmy.
