Factual error: In the US Navy, liberty (what civilians usually call "shore leave") does not commence at 6:00 in the morning. It commences at 1600 (4:00 in the afternoon) and you have to be back on board by 0700 the next morning. Weekend liberty commences at 1600 Friday and expires on board at 0700 Monday.

Factual error: None of the sailors has either service ribbons or rate insignia on his uniform. Even if they were all fresh out of boot camp, they would have had to have at least a rate insignia.
