Legendary TV star Alan Alda is helping the families of wounded U.S. troops, by auctioning off two pieces of military memorabilia from the set of his hit 1970s show M*A*S*H.

Alda will give the dog tags and combat boots he wore throughout the show's 11-year run as part of the New York Comedy Festival's Stand Up for Heroes event.

Proceeds from the auction will go to the Bob Woodruff Foundation, aiming to raise funds to assist members of the U.S. military injured while serving.

Bidding starts on Tuesday at auction website charityfolks.com.
