Tea with Mussolini

Deliberate mistake: The German army is using American Sherman tanks, presumably easier to get for filming.

Deliberate mistake: The sandbags used to protect the frescoes are obviously not full of sand (real ones would have been too heavy for the cast to lift).

Factual error: The British Major at the end has his rank crowns sewn to the collar of his shirt. The British Army didn't/doesn't do that. They should be on his shoulder epaulettes.
