GATK BaseRecalibrator and platform?

Posting here because the GATK forums are slow to respond.

To my understanding, BaseRecalibrator requires certain fields, of which includes the platform information. I received bam files in which I do not see any information regarding the platform. Is there a way to add this in? I looked at AddorReplaceReadGroups by the GATK but that only seems to merge everything into a single read group.

Can you post the header of a read. Often one can derive the Illumina platform from the read name.
