* Oh c'mon people!  There was no actual "Bat Guano" in Strangelove.  That
* was just a name that Peter Sellers used out of anger during the
* "shoot the coca-cola machine" scene.  His actual line was something
* like:
* 
* "... see here Bat Guano or whatever your name is ..."
* 
* In other words, Sellers was making fun of the guy's name, which
* wasn't actually "Bat Guano".

No, the Colonel had his name visible on his uniform.  Mandrake's line was

  "... see here, Col. Bat Guano, if that really is your name, ..."
