* CastTheExpert: Taken UpToEleven. Pretty much everyone in uniform was played by then-active-duty military personnel. The SEAL platoon was played by real life [=SEALs=] because, supposedly, no stunt man was physically capable of pulling off what they needed.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: There is an alternate cut floating around where the scene between Chief Dave and Lieutenant Rorke aboard the ''USS Bonhomme Richard'' goes differently. Instead of a conversation about flags, patriotism, and lineage, the two discuss Rorke's impending transfer out of the SEALs to a desk job with Dave needling Rorke about becoming a paper commando and Rorke pretending to take offense. It's a subtler scene that reinforces the friendship between the two men.
