Line 77:
* [[Blackmail]]: Occasionally employed by Hawkeye and co. For instance, in "George" he and Trapper get Frank to admit to having paid for the answers on his medical exams, then use the info to keep him from sending a letter to the Pentagon outing a gay GI and demanding he be dishonorably discharged.
* [[Black Market Produce]]: The occasional real food was quite a treat. One time a farmer gave the unit a bunch of real eggs, not the reconstituted stuff they usually get. Another time Radar went through a [[Chain of Deals]] in order to supply Col. Potter with fresh tomato juice after some accidentally got shipped to them and Potter liked it - but then after all that trouble, it turns out Potter is mildly allergic. He'd been without it for so long he forgot.
* [[Blatant Lies]]: Numerous times for comedic effect (usually from Frank), and several times just as the show lying to attempt to shame America. One episode claims that America is apparently the only country in the world that doesn't happily acknowledge and take in the half-Korean children sired by their soldiers. If you know anything at all about, say, the Japanese, you're probably having a good, derisive laugh at the concept even now.
* [[Blue Eyes]]: Most of the men have gorgeous [[Blue Eyes]] (even Frank) but Hawkeye's probably got the most love.
** Loretta Swit (Margaret) is blue-eyed as well.
