Corrected entry: When Jude Law and Ed Harris are playing cat and mouse in the scene where Harris is in the air duct, and Law is hiding behind the furniture, Harris end up getting hit in the arm by a bullet. This type of wound, created by a 7.62x54R, would have blown the section clean off, where it struck. Later in the movie, we see a slight bandage, but an otherwise functional appendage.

Corrected entry: When the German sniper enters his bunker, he renders an American style salute. He should be rendering a loud and boisterous "Heil Hitler!" and a Nazi salute, complete with feet clapping together sharply.
Correction: The sniper's "American Style" salute is correct, as most armies saluted that way. Also, shouting "Heil Hitler" and giving the "Nazi" salute was not required in the German Army (required by those serving in the SS, however) until after the July 1944 bomb attempt to kill Adolf Hitler.

Correction: He was shot in the hand, which is thin enough that the bullet could have gone through and through without yawing and thus preventing severe damage, assuming that they were following the Geneva conventions and using FMJ bullets.
