I have always been a bit confused about the military service of Andy and
Barney.  Their two high school reunions indicated they graduated in two
different years, both being after World War 2.  However, in Quiet Sam,
Barney tells Andy he can't deliver a baby because in 1938 he had flunked
high school biology.  If that is the case, then Andy spent an awful lot of
years attending Mayberry Union High unless he quit high school when war
broke out and then went back to high school after the war and graduated in
1948.  Also in Quiet Sam Barney told Sam that during the war he did his
part to defeat the "dreaded Hun" which of course is a direct reference to
the Germans.  So it sure is confusing to say the least.
