Quincy finds out that the murderer was able to convince the victim's father that his son was killed in Vietnam. The only problem, his son was killed in 1959, several years before the US got involved in Vietnam. [Editor's Note: According to the National Archives, the Vietnam Conflict for the U.S. began in 1956. The dates for the 'War' are given as between 1969 and the last U.S. troop withdrawal in April 1975. As the victim was described as enlisting in the Army (and not being drafted starting with the December 1969 draft lottery), he very well could have served and been killed in Vietnam at the time.]
The chalkboard in the classroom where Quince is teaching the pathology class at the university in Los Angeles (it has a list of words painted down the left hand side), can also been seen in the coroner's office in Lubbock, Texas later in the show.
