Lesbians Gone Wild - S5-E7

Factual error: Throughout the season, there are multiple times where soldiers are shown with major deficiencies in their uniforms. It would take too long to point out every single mistake, so the most obvious ones to point out would be when Colonel Davis is wearing her name tag above her unit awards while in her Class A uniform and when Tasha was wearing the Combat Infantryman Badge (CIB) while in her Army Combat Uniform. The name tag goes below unit awards on the Class A uniform, and the CIB is only awarded to soldiers who are in an infantry or Special Forces job, neither of which were open to women when this episode took place.

Let's Get This Party Started - S5-E4

Factual error: Two U.S. Army officers arrive at Alice's apartment to question her about her suspected homosexual relationship with Tasha and then start going through her apartment looking for signs of the relationship. In reality, this would be highly illegal and out of the authority of the Army, considering Alice is a civilian with no ties to the military. No JAG lawyer worth his salt would even consider ordering something like this because it would open the Army up to a very embarrassing lawsuit and could potentially lead to harassment charges against the officers as well.
