Talk:Sergeant James Kinchloe

I believe Kinchloe was drafted as there is one episode I recall where he receives a letter from his draft board telling him that his final classification is "4F, limited service," and his response is, "now they tell me."

I want to say it was one of the episodes where Schultz delivers their mail, perhaps "Top Secret Top Coat."

Hmmm, I recall that statement being made since I saw the series a lot on reruns from the early 1970s until about the early 1990s, but I prefer that it be confirmed before making a change in his character bio. That's one of the main reason why I'm correcting certain information on the character bios of guest star characters since I'm going through the DVD of season one episodes.

It's actually episode "Request Permission To Escape" from Season 1 where Kinchloe receives the letter from his draft board. I was watching the Season 1 DVDs and just saw this scene.

Hhhmmm, when I get to the episode, I'll look out for the scene so I can make the correction on his character bio. At the moment I'm stuck at the episode, "Happiness is a Warm Sergeant", and that's mainly because my home computer is down so I can't make any necessary corrections at home. I'm presently using a computer at my alma mater and that limits me on what I can do. Leoni2 20:04, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

Kinch's first name
In the episode: Is General Hammerschlag Burning? Kinch is referred to as Ivan Kinchloe by his old high school acquaintance. 24.240.69.68 15:19, July 4, 2010 (UTC)

That was an error by the actress, as she was accidently calling him by his real first name of Ivan, as in Ivan Dixon, and not by the first name of his character, James. Leoni2 17:10, July 6, 2010 (UTC)
