Goofs:

Continuity: When Hawkeye offers to put objects into Maj. Houlihan's Time Capsule, one of the objects is Radar's Teddy Bear. However, the Teddy Bear he offers is not the original one. Gary Burghoff took the original Teddy Bear with him when he left the show. It was auctioned off for $11,900 in 2005.

Quotes:

Hawkeye: [Hands over a teddy bear] This belonged to Radar; he left it for me. Let it stand for all the soldiers who came over as boys, and left as men.
