"Weird Scenes Inside The Canyon: Laurel Canyon, Covert Ops & The Dark Heart Of The Hippie Dream" by David McGowan is an excellent read that covers this aspect of Morrison, and many other people and topics of that era, centred on their presence in Laurel Canyon outside LA. Frank Zappa also had a miltary connection, and at the time there was a secret "military research facility" (? this might not be the exact right phrase to describe it...) in the canyon. It's a while since I read it, must glance at it again.
Jim Morrison’s earliest reading material is super interesting, specifically Nietzsche. Once you break it down to its most basic understanding you get an entertainment based woke Generation with no morals like gen Y-Z lol. Quite an interesting set of philosophies with a foundation in nihilism.
Eventually writers who studied his (Nietzsche) works came out stating they were basically fascism, nazism, etc., but he got pissed and screamed otherwise. The more you read and understand his writings the more you understand Morrison was just a puppet and LSD coupled with his lyrics or poetry are the programming.
Hard telling what really happened here, but the timing then produced quite a bit of these same types of characters. Today’s characters aren’t launched via lyrics and lsd, but more so with secretly released sex tapes (Kardashian, Hilton, etc.) and programming via TV and social media as these are the new “Doors of Perception” to the masses.

Off topic: The studio where Jim Morrison got his year book photos take is now one best taverns in the whole Washington D.C. area.

Jim Morrison also faked his death and was recast as Rush Limbaugh.
Never heard this one before.
Have to say it's a fun one for sure.
