Four seasons of the television series now available on DVD. Ran from 1988 to 1991 on ABC.
I haven't seen it. Not much of an Vietnam War action program evidently.

From IMDB:
"A drama series set at an American base during the Vietnam War. Rather than focusing on the battle scenes that made up most other portrayals of the war, this show looked at the everyday lives of the people sent to serve their country. The doctors, nurses, soldiers and even USO entertainers stationed at the base must try to come to terms with the horrors and stresses of the war around them. Not all of them succeed."

I remember this show and saw some of it. As I remember, the best thing about it was looking at Dana Delany and Marg Helgenberg.^&grin -- Al

Yeah, "China Beach" was kind of like "M*A*S*H" from the last few seasons, when they had long since dispensed with the laugh track and focused on the "message".

Agreed on Dana Delany and Marg Helgenberger, but especially Delany, I like redheads, rowr!

Prost!
