The Last Ship (2014)

1 continuity mistake in season 5 - chronological order

(2 votes)

Season 5 generally

Continuity mistake: After season 1, then Captain Chandler is shows with a Silver Star Medal. But in season 5 he does not have it any more. Considering his status in overall and the fact that he has not lost medals/awards that are considered higher, his Silver Star would not be revoked from him.

Achilles - S2-E5

Factual error: 1. Why wasn't Prairie/Masker operating all the time they knew a sub was out there? That's SOP for the US Navy. 2. Spearfish torpedoes are homing torpedoes. They wouldn't just shoot by on each side of the ship, but if they did, they'd turn around and pursue their target until they ran out of fuel. 3. Why didn't the ship employ countermeasures when the sub launched torpedoes? A noisemaker, a nixie - Navy ships don't just cross their fingers and hope the torpedoes miss.
