Mash 2026: Trapper John McIntyre by ric gustafson
The doctor who was Hawkeye's tentmate and close confidant was Trapper John. Trapper John was played by Wayne Rogers. The original plan for the show was for Hawkeye and Trapper John to be front and center. As the show grew, Alan Alda's character Hawkeye became more popular than Roger's Trapper John. Trapper John became less prominent. Wayne Rogers decided to leave the show after 3 seasons.
After MASH, Rogers was in a sitcom called House Calls.
Then Rogers switched his interest to stock and real estate markets. He was a regular on the Fox Business Network. This was for a show called Cashin In.
Rogers was married to Mitzi McWhorter. They had 2 children. Later, Rogers married Amy Hirsh
Wayne Rogers died in 2015 from complications from pneumonia.
