Fire that is obscured from direct sight, such as behind a hill or three...Korea has lots of hills...will just be a glow in the sky. If it's sufficiently dark, or the fire is clean burning, you may not see much smoke, either. There are many reasons why someone may get their directions confused. Night and adrenaline are two of them, but Klinger is probably reason enough unto himself.
MASH was anti-war, anti-military, period. You can use it as a metaphor for American sentiments about getting involved in Korea, Vietnam, Irag and/or Afganistan if you like. Unfortunately, there will be others you can add to that list.
