Corrected entry: A few errors aside from Duke's change in rank, is that Ripcord is Enlisted. Even special forces Enlisted do not fly jets. Also, I understand that special forces are allowed to grow facial hair and keep long hair as part of blending in during operations, but Duke has a somewhat regulation hair cut and a manicured goatee. In his formal dress uniform, he would not be allowed to keep that little chin stubble.

Correction: Ripcord only flys a jet at the end of the movie, at the start in the vehicle with Duke, he is considering changing careers to the Air Force. At the end of the movie when he is in the jet, he is part of the Joes, which is a special organisation and obviously does not have the same rule set.
