The Uniform - S2-E11
Character mistake: While handcuffing an auxiliary officer in his apartment, there is a poster on the wall reading, "attention military personal..." Personal is misused. It should read "attention military personnel." (00:16:02)
Blue Bloods (2010)
Starring: Tom Selleck, Bridget Moynahan, Donnie Wahlberg, Len Cariou, Will Estes
Character mistake: Sergeant Gormley is promoted to Lieutenant in the previous episode. In this episode he is referred to as Sergeant Gormley by Commissioner Reagan and Deputy Commissioner Garrett Moore at least twice.
Friends in High Places - S10-E8
Factual error: Police Officer Troy was taken into a room by Sgt Regan to be interviewed. He has one Sgt stripe on one sleeve. He's a police officer, not a Sgt.
Trivia: Although Len Cariou plays Tom Selleck's father, he's only five years older than Selleck.
Trivia: In episode 2x22 "Mother's Day" the scene at the start was filmed at Brooklyn's American Veterans Memorial Pier, at Bay Ridge Ave aka 69th St, in Bay Ridge (off Belt Pkwy). The location and design of this pier is distinctive and also sentimental (particularly to older Brooklynites).
Frank Reagan: I'm the PC. I know everything.
Frank Reagan: And I don't have a Teflon suit. Everything gets to me. Every time one of ours is hurt, or jammed up, or he's in over his head, it gets to me. I just don't show it, 'cause I can't show it, 'cause nobody wants, or needs, a sensitive police commissioner.
Sid Gormley: OK.
Frank Reagan: So screw you!
Sid Gormley: Yes, sir. That an order, too?
Frank Reagan: Yeah, that's an order.
Sid Gormley: Screw me. I'm on it, boss.
Question: What is the significance of the lapel pin worn by detectives on Blue Bloods?
Answer: It is an NYPD Detective Bureau lapel pin. If you zoom in on a pic of "Danny Reagan," you will see that the pin has the letters DB on it.
Question: Why why does Danny always yell, "hey!" When he's is a half a block from the perpetrators which gives the perpetrators 1/2 block head start running from Danny. Why doesn't he wait until he's close to him and he wouldn't have to chase him so far?
Answer: It's a common cop show plot device. If the police on the show always acted in the most logical way (i.e. not alerting a suspect to their presence) the show wouldn't have the opportunity for an exciting foot chase.
Question: What is the pin Mayor Dutton is wearing?
Answer: The Seal of the City of New York.

Answer: It is the lapel pin worn by members of the NYPD Honor Legion.
The lapel pin is on Danny but not Biaz, why? Also, Baker, Sid, Frank &Garrett wear one. Significance? Are they all the same?
Is the P.C.'s pin different than a legion pin? What are the symbols and their meaning?
I think it may be Masonic?
But why would the mayor wear one?
