War Horse - 5 mistakes
The battle in which Archie is gassed is not an accurate portrayal of how the British army was fighting by 1918. By 1918 the British had developed what for the time were very advanced infantry fighting techniques. They would have attacked in sections with each man having been properly trained as to his role and objectives. And by 1918 the British would not have launched a human wave style attack in daylight, or one that was unsupported by artillery and possibly tanks. The unruly mob that is depicted is somewhat more typical of the attacks of 1915 and 1916.
Major Stewart addresses the Indian NCO as "Sergeant Major" and he is so described in the credits. There was no such rank in the British Indian Army. Indian cavalry sergeants were known as Daffadars. More senior Indian cavalry officers held VCO ranks (Jemadar, Risaldar and Risaldar Major) which had no British equivalent. Given the importance of rank and protocol, it is highly unlikely that a British commissioned officer would be unaware of this.
