Continuity mistake: Every time we see the Nurka fire a torpedo, regardless of whether the order was "fire one," "fire two," or even "fire five" or "fire six," the torpedo is always seen leaving exactly the same tube.
Continuity mistake: In the final battle scene, Lt. Bledsoe is alternately wearing a long sleeve shirt rolled up at his elbow or a short sleeve shirt.
Factual error: When in his office after being sunk, Clark Gable and Don Rickles are together. The phone is in the background on the corner table. The phone in the office is a 1950s model rotary phone with push buttons for several lines. This was not available in 1942-1943. There is a wall phone hanging on the window frame that is also a 50's model with a 50's handle.
Question: Regarding the Tokyo Rose broadcasts: is there one that ends with a brief snippet of "I'll Remember April?"
