ā¢ The camel spitting in Turkey's face wasn't planned. Bob Hope's recoil and Bing Crosby's reaction were so funny that it was left in the final cut.
ā¢ In an interview Dorothy Lamour commented that the "boys" ad-libbed their lines so much she often didn't know when to say her lines since they didn't give her her cue.
ā¢ Paramount shot two endings for the film. The one not used had Bob Hope and Bing Crosby enlisting in the Marines and ended with the line "See you on the road to Tokyo."
