running with the idea that Trapper thinks Hawkeye is dead due to the Incident in “The Late Captain Pierce”, scenario where after the war ends Trapper finally makes himself go to Crabapple Cove to visit Hawkeye’s grave and he finds the late Mrs Pierce’s grave but he can’t find Hawkeye’s and he awkwardly asks someone he finds visiting the graveyard where he can find the grave of one Benjamin Franklin Pierce, explains they were close during the war, and the person looks at him with complete and utter confusion like “you mean Dr Pierce? I mean, yeah, he visits his mom here most Saturdays, but I think it’d be more appropriate to just go to his house. He lives up the road”
and that’s how Trapper finds out Hawkeye isn’t, in fact, dead
A lot of nice songs came out of that war. I’ll be home for Christmas, you can count on me… You know that song? I remember lying on the rug, listening to them sing that on the radio. I can still smell the rug. Please have snow, and mistletoe, and presents on tree… A lot of very touching songs came out of that war.
