G.I. Jane

Other mistake: When Moore graduates from training, she is handed a nonexistent silver trident by Mortensen. She should have been handed a gold SEAL trident as they themselves conducting the training were wearing.

Suggested correction: Because they weren't training to be SEALs (BUDS/UDT). They were training to graduate the fictional "U.S. Navy Combined Reconnaissance Team" course. Fake unit, fake trident. No mistake here.

Other mistake: During the briefing inside the submarine and the actual firefight, they were using maps that have south-facing shores. They were going to Libya where the shores face north. Even when they were planning their extraction, their intention was to go south (she points down, so it's not like the map's oriented incorrectly). Into the middle of the Libyan desert?

Revealing mistake: Towards the end of the film, a Cobra helicopter is flying in to assist with the extraction of the Navy Seals. There is a three-quarter frontal shot of the helicopter, one bank of rocket tubes can be seen to be empty; a few moments later, it's firing rockets from banks on both sides.
