Sergeant Muldoon: [to himself] It sings? That's what he said. Provo's Privy, It DOES sing!
Doc McGee: How come you like blowing things up so much?
Sergeant Muldoon: My dad gave me a chemistry set. It got bigger than both of us.

Facts about
Scenes were filmed with Vera Miles as John Wayne's wife but they were cut before release by the studio. Wayne made up for this by casting Miles in his next film Hellfighters.
Much of the film was shot in 1967 at Ft. Benning, Georgia, hence the large pine forests in the background rather than tropical jungle trees.
Some of the "Vietnamese village" sets were so realistic they were left intact, and were later used by the Army for training troops destined for Vietnam.
