Production designer Anton Furst went through 6000 photos of the Vietnam War as research. He wanted to create an image of a nightmarish inferno: "We didn't want blue skies; if the sun came out, Kubrick didn't shoot. When the squad went into the burned out city of Quai, we had every building on fire. Parris Island was supposed to train them for their tour of Vietnam, so we contrasted the unbelievable cleanness of the boot camp with the incredible filth of the actual war; the point was that they came up against something they could never have trained for."
