Writer Michael Herr was called in to write much of Willard's voice-over dialogue and a few scenes. The scene where Roach uses a grenade launcher to kill the North Vietnamese soldier in the wire during the scene at the Do Long bridge is taken directly from "Dispatches", Herr's memoir of the year (1967 to 1968) he spent in-country as a journalist accredited to Esquire Magazine during the war.
