Baa Baa Black Sheep : Synopsis, Pictures, Photos, Trivia, Filming Locations

. The real Greg 'Pappy' Boyington appeared in an episode in a cameo role.

. As, at the time, there were no genuine A6M "Zero" fighters in flyable condition (this has been rectified only in recent years), all of the Japanese Zeroes depicted were actually American AT-6 "Texan" trainer aircraft that were specially modified to resemble a Zero.

. When nurses were added to the regular cast, they were referred to in the opening credits as "Pappy Lambs" as a takeoff on the show that was beating this one in the ratings at the time, "Charlie's Angels" (1976).

. Red West was filming a scene on this series when he was told his former boss, Elvis Presley had died. West was given the rest of the day off.
