Mistakes

The uniforms worn by the troops ("chocolate chip" DCU)are incorrect. The uniforms they are wearing were in design during this time, and weren't sent to the desert for them to wear until AFTER the conflict was over. They were actually on a plane on their way there when everything started and ended so quickly. See more...

In the scene where Swofford and his Spotter come back and they start shooting off their weapons, there is a scene where a M-16 is being fired as a full auotmatic, which is impossible. As the M-16A2 will only fire 3round bursts or semi-auto. [The M16-A2 may be, but the M16-A3 is capable of full-automatic fire and was introduced around the same time in smaller numbers and looks pretty much the same.]

During the Christmas party sequence, the song "O.P.P." by Naughty By Nature was played. This track, however, was not released until late 1991, while this part of the film is set in earlier 1991. [O.P.P. was released Sept 24, 1991. Obviously a Christmas party would be in Dec 1991.]
