I have seen many of the episodes many times and am currently watching through them again on DVD with my wife. She had never seen them so this is her first time. I picked up season 3 yesterday and we watched The Leap Home parts 1 & 2. My wife pointed out something I didn't quite catch before. In The Leap Home Part 2, Al led Sam back to Tom to kill the vietnamese (Tia Carrere). By doing this, Sam wasn't able to save Al (as a POW). What I didn't quite catch before was Al gave up his only chance (at the time) to be back with Beth. My wife actually wished Sam saved Al instead, but Al knew better. I wanted to tell my wife it didn't matter because Sam winds up telling Beth Al's alive so he would have a home to come home to, but alas, I did not. But of course, I just checked that this leap was April 7 & 8, 1970 and Beth remarried in June 1969, so that just kinda shoots it down. It is pretty neat that Sam and Al have sacrificed so much for each other.
