Corrected entry: In the airplane before jumping, Major Reisman is asked, "How much longer?" He gets up to ask the pilot and he is not wearing a parachute, although everyone else is already suited up. They jump from the plane seconds later. (01:45:00)

Continuity mistake: In the wargames scene, right after the group comes down the hill with the live artillery fire, they change arm bands from blue to red. In the next scene when they pick up the stolen jeep, everyone is wearing blue arm bands again (when they went over the hill, they were in red territory so would not have changed back to blue while walking to meet the jeep). Then when they crash the jeep, they are back in the red arm bands for the remainder of the scene.

Suggested correction: The road they were on was not in red territory, which is why everyone in the jeep was also in blue. That's why Joseph was asked what he was doing on the road and the doctor in the ambulance said he had permission to cross all lines and roadblocks.

Correction: And we never see the Major talking to the "driver." When the pilot gives the ready light, it's the next scene, and we don't know how much time has past, not a continuous shot. We also see only half jump and then seconds later they're all on the ground talking. They simply skipped showing the Major gearing up before the jump.
