Wayne Rogers, Played M*A*S*H's Trapper John, Dead at 82

Wayne Rogers, best known to TV audiences for playing Captain “Trapper” John McIntyre on M*A*S*H, died on Thursday after suffering complications from pneumonia, his family told Entertainment Tonight. He was 82.

Rogers’ first major acting role was on the ABC Western Stagecoach West, which debuted in October 1960 and ran for 38 episodes. A little over a decade (and numerous gigs) later, he was cast as Trapper John on CBS’ TV adaptation of M*A*S*H, assuming the role played by Elliott Gould in the 1970 film.

Sad to see that he has been taken away from us.
Recently he was in the financial sector and would make regular  appearances on FBN guest panels.
I will miss him.
M.A.S.H. was one of my all time favorite shows.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.
