When he is up watching the plane cross the Atlantic his wife comes over and they talk. When he tells her to get some sleep her hand is not on his shoulder but in the very next scene her hand is on his shoulder and he is holing it.
in the hallway scene with Aaron and Emily (around the 9 minute mark), as Aaron turns to leave, two people can be seen walking towards the camera (a large man wearing an earpiece, and a woman carrying a blue folder). Aaron pauses and turns to speak to Emily again, and when the camera switches back to him, those same two people can be seen walking towards the camera a second time.
The flag code specifies that when a casket is closed, the flag must be draped across the casket so that the "field" of stars covers the head and over the deceased's left shoulder. The flag on the coffin is placed incorrect.
When the casket of the deceased Seal Team Commander is displayed in the hanger after the mission the US flag is placed on the casket so the union is at the head and over the right shoulder, which is incorrect. On caskets, the flag should be placed so the union is at the head and over the left shoulder of the deceased.
The battleship they say is running the mission - the USS LEXINGTON - has been parked - a tourist attraction in a port city in Texas for decades.

Alex Kirkman wakes up to find Tom Kirkman staring at his computer. He states that the SEAL team will land in two hours and 28 minutes. However, Algeria is six hours ahead of Washington DC and sunrise in January/February in Algeria is before 8:00 am local time, so assuming it's after 11:30 pm in Washington DC the SEAL team would be landing after dawn.
Kirkman refers to a Navy SEAL as a soldier. The term soldier is used to describe US Army personnel. As part of the US Navy, a SEAL would be considered a sailor. However, Navy Cmdr. Clarkson fails to correct him.
