That seems very unlikely
Given that the Vietnam war, whilst never officially declared by either side, is reckoned to have lasted (at least in terms of American troops on Vietnamese soil) from 1961 to 1974, if that was the case MASH would still be on TV today

MASH was set during the Korean War

This is what I get for commenting on a show I never really watched
If indeed it was a show

But MASH was actually set in the Korean war
(although it is well know it was intended to be a reference to vietnam)
