Larry Storch, who played a memorable television oddball on the 1960s sitcom “F Troop,” died July 8 at his home on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. He was 99.
Mr. Storch had a long career as a nightclub comic and as a character actor on the stage and on big and small screens, but that work was dwarfed by the impression he made during the two-season run of
“F Troop” on ABC from 1965 to 1967. The show was a slapstick comedy about an outpost called Fort Courage in Indian country just after the Civil War. He and his misfit pals were constantly hatching moneymaking schemes involving the local Indian tribe, the Hekawis.
