Private Benjamin

Continuity mistake: On her first day in basic, Judy is made to clean all the toilets in the latrine. There is a shot of her leaving the last stall and she is barefoot carrying her shoes. The next shot is outside the latrine and she can be seen wearing red rubber boots that almost reach her knees.

Continuity mistake: In the scene near the end of the movie where Goldie Hawn throws her veil it is not windy as her hair is down. The next shot shows her hair blowing in the wind.
