Was he the same guy the 'Boys' at the defense plant pranked by adding rationed gas to his car every day, and when he started gushing about his milage, they started siphoning a bit every day?

Kinda a trick question because Henrietta Perkins only appeared in the pilot, then was recast as a regular with another name and role.
