Chaos in the Calm - S7-E1

Character mistake: During the CO's meeting, the Captain made a mistake by addressing Commander Blackburn as "Lieutenant Blackburn." Even if he was demoted to Lieutenant Cmdr, you still suppose to address that rank as Commander or Lieutenant Commander. (00:04:44)

Last Known Location - S3-E16

Character mistake: Lindell is referred to as Captain Lindell; however, on his office wall, he has a Meritorious Service Medal Award that references Captain Greyson Lindell, USMC. The fact Lindell is a Marine, he should be recognized as a Colonel and be wearing a USMC uniform, not a U.S. Navy uniform. (00:26:43)

Never Out of the Fight - S2-E22

Character mistake: When Jason is having his toast in the bar, he begins listing up the amount of decorations there are in the room, starting with saying there are three Silver Star medals in the room. Bravo Team alone has eight Silver Star medals. The only operators from Bravo who do not have the Silver Star medal are Blackburn and Full Metal. Full Metal was a real SEAL before going into acting, and earned a Navy Cross that he also wears in the show on his dress uniform. (00:36:36 - 00:37:12)

The Upside Down - S1-E12

Character mistake: At the start of the episode when Clay is done brushing his teeth and standing in front of the mirror without a shirt, he has no tattoos. He has been seen several times with tattoos on his arms that are not even covered by a normal T-shirt. (00:05:02 - 00:05:23)

Objects in Mirror - S3-E14

Character mistake: Sonny and a Turkmen soldier are having a competition shootout, and they're both using CZ75 9mm pistols. These firearms are very high end and are made in Czechoslovakia. Sonny says "I have this little Russian pea-shooter." The place of manufacture is stamped on the frame and its Czechoslovakia. (00:20:00 - 00:20:30)

Fracture - S2-E1

Factual error: The briefer on the oil platform mission says the platform is 12 stories, and 80 million square feet. Doing the math, that makes it half a mile per side if completely square. It is nowhere near that size as shown. The largest oil rig in the world - Berkut in Russia's Far East - has a combined deck area of only 342,000 square feet. (00:13:35)

Rolling Dark - S1-E9

Question: So they get the scientist on a four-seater, single-prop plane, and then send them from Siberia to Afghanistan. That's by the route from the briefing about 1800 miles. They fly with gear down. Is that possible? (00:06:47)

Answer: Yes. They would have to land 3-4 times for refuelling. The plane could fly with the wheels down, but the additional drag slows the plane and increases fuel consumption.
