In Name Only - S1-E17

Factual error: In this episode the Seals are flying around on the stealth helicopters like the ones used on Operation Neptune Spear (Bin Laden op), but for some reason the Seals are using the outdated night vision goggles with 80 degree field of view and not the GPVG-18's with a 97 degree field of view. DEVGRU use the best gear, they would not be using AN-PVS-15 or 31's. On operation Neptune Spear they utilized the GPNG-18's. (00:25:00 - 00:31:10)

Season 2 generally

Question: This season has added the odd effect of a large puff of red smoke/dust whenever someone is shot. It is unrealistic and distracting. Wondering if anyone knows the reason for this change.

Answer: Depending on caliber the body does spray blood from .308 and up.

Answer: Only because it looks cool on screen.
