The Col Kurtz character was partly based on an Australian Army guy

Dad knew him. He was was based in Laos, recruiting a "private" army in the villages and lived with a pet tiger...
So there was plenty of crazy already going on there in the early/mid 60's.

BTW, the Australian troops had plenty of beer. Apparently it was the preferred trade for American stores and munitions.
