He was good comedic character actor. When you watch the old reruns from the 70's and 80's he shows up in a lot of stuff. RIP Larry Storch.

I loved F Troop as a kid. Watching it as an adult, I prefer to view it as very silly satire.

Storch also played in a couple of episodes of one of my favorite sitcoms, Gomer Pyle USMC. He played Gen. Manuel Cortez.

Totally random fact: Storch was the first person to imitate Cary Grant by saying “Judy, Judy, Judy”. As the story goes, he was doing his standup act at a club in Miami Beach, and while he was doing his Cary Grant impression, Judy Garland walked in. Without missing a beat, still in character as Cary Grant, he said, “Judy, Judy, Judy…I love you, I love you, I love you”. The crowd loved it, and he kept it in his act. Eventually it became the cliche way of impersonating Cary Grant for everyone; I remember Goober on “Andy Griffith” doing his own, very bad version of it.

Klink, Schulz, and Burkhalter were all Jewish, I believe. HH was underrated. Gene Reynolds, one of the guys behind MASH, directed a ton of episodes. I was always surprised that many of the plots ended with Nazi's being killed, something kind of unusual for a half-hour comedy.
