Factual error: Lieutenant Commander Cole goes to the skipper's office with his hands in his pockets and proceeds to talk to him, and not once does he remove his hands from his pockets. This is a military no-no. A person in uniform NEVER walks or talks with his hands in his pockets.

Suggested correction: Not necessarily. 1) This was during the Vietnam war, a lot of regs are overlooked. 2) The old military phrase "RHIP" (Rank has its privileges).

I respectfully disagree. I was an officer in Vietnam during the war, and the Air Force would not tolerate it even there. Maybe the Navy was more lax.

Continuity mistake: During the catapult launch for the SAM suppression mission, we can see two Shrike missiles on the right wing pylons. In the next shot, there is only one. At this point they still haven't reached the SAM site so they wouldn't need to fire one. A little later in another shot (right before they switch to active radar) we see two Shrikes again.

Cdr. Camparelli: But if I catch either one of you shitting in some vital area on my ship, I will have you keelhauled! And that's serious on an aircraft carrier.
