Quotes

Edward Garlick: We got one letter from a man who thought that Hauk's comedy was "visionary and interesting." The other eleven hundred calls say that the man can't do comedy to save his dick! That's a direct quote, sir.

Mistakes

The movie is set in Saigon, 1965. Adrian Cronauer plays "What a Wonderful World" by Louis B. Armstrong on his radio show, but the song wasn't recorded until August 16, 1967. See more...

Trivia

When Cronauer and Garlick get stuck in traffic with the Army trucks, Garlick asks the assembled troops to guess who is in the Jeep with him. One of the troops shouts "Mork". Robin Williams played Mork in Mork & Mindy. See more...

Corrections

Adrian arrives/departs Saigon with a small kit bag. He couldn't fit all the uniforms he wore into that bag. [He could have sent for his bags once he arrived, or picked them up from the base, or sent them ahead seperately because he only wanted to take a carry-on bag.]

When Garlick is telling Cronauer about Sergeant Major Dickerson, he tells him that he was once the commander of some elite special forces unit. Enlisted people can't be commanders, only officers can as it is a commissioned rank. [Enlisted personnel CAN be in charge of a unit. I was a Sergeant 1st class in TACTICAL command of a unit in Special Forces. It is possible.]
