message: Does this merit a disambiguation page with the show, the real China Beach in Vietnam, and Golden Gate NRA as the targets?  Rlquall 02:28, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

message: "For the historical Vietnamese beach of the same name, see China Beach." Leads to a list of worldwide beaches, and the China Beach link in that list leads back here to the TV show.  *IS* there an article on the actual China Beach in Vietnam?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.128.8.150 (talk) 13:52, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

message: Did the show really use the 1980's version of this song, with Katrina and the Waves?! Did it not use the original by The Animals, which was very popular during the War? Maury Markowitz (talk) 17:53, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: If you check the source for the DVD collection, it should be "Eric Burdon with Katrina and the Waves". This is how it should be listed as the company's legal team had spent a year clearing the rights to hundreds of copyrights for the songs. — Wyliepedia 09:56, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

message: There isn't a real beach called China Beach in Vietnam. It was just a nickname by the geographically challenged American soldiers. Pass it on. 71.133.155.169 (talk)  —Preceding undated comment added 01:38, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

message: I'm surprised there isn't a page dedicated either to the original novel Home Before Morning (1983) or its author, former U.S. Army Nurse Lynda Van Devanter.
Do we know anything else about her? Valetude (talk) 21:05, 17 February 2016 (UTC)

message: In the episode “Hello, Goodbye (Part 2)” the character of Bunsen introduces herself to Garreau as a SPC4, not a private. In a number of episodes Beckett is wearing the insignia of a SPC5 (E-5). Is there some other canonical source for listing Bunsen as a private and Beckett as a SPC4?

message: RE "she comes to China Beach to search for her brother Rick, a Marine Infantryman, who was reported MIA after the Battle of Khe Sanh. She dies midway through the second season during the Tet Offensive in January 1968."
Tet started Jan 20, 1968
Khe Sanh started Jan 21, 1968.
Cherry White is dead by Jan 31, 1968
So she found out her brother was MIA, joins the Red Cross, gets trained and sent to Nam, and dies; all within a 10 day span? No way. 57.140.32.49 (talk) 13:42, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
