It just goes to show you that if dog poop had nicotine in it, people would smoke it.

R.J. Reynolds primarily sponsored the series duirng its original prime-time run on CBS- that meant "Bilko" and his platoon usually appeared in an "integrated commercial" for Camel during the episode {most often seen in the middle of the show}, promoting the sponsor's product within the evening's plot. This is one such example, which, I believe, appeared during "Bilko and the Flying Saucers" {December 31, 1957}.
