Episode Title: "Ghosts of Christmas Past"
Original Air Date: 12/14/99
On Christmas Eve, Harm pays his annual visit to the Vietnam Memorial to honor his father who was shot down on Christmas Eve, 1969. At the memorial, Harm meets a beautiful, but mysterious woman, who claims to have known Harm, Sr. She used to be a singer in a traveling USO tour and she met Harm's father shortly before his fateful flight.
In an unusual casting twist, Harm stars as his father in this episode, and many familiar faces show up playing different roles.
In a flashback episode, a singer with Bob Hope's USO tour tells Harm about her 1969 Christmas meeting with his father, and how he saved her life just before his last mission.
