The Bridge at Remagen

Revealing mistake: When the Remagen bridge is bombed, it is obvious that the bomber planes shown have been taken from several shots (possibly also from an earlier film) and the shots were superimposed. Also, the bombers appear transparent, and the background sky's color is unnaturally strong, too.

Capt. Otto Baumann: You will find out when we attack.

Trivia: The sight of Sgt. Angelo using a German MP 40 was not unusual in WW2; in fact, many Allied soldiers used the MP 40 instead of their own issues because of its then-handy design, and the design itself inspired the development of similar-looking SMGs, particularly the Russian Ppsh 43 and the U.S. M3 'Grease Gun'.
