| 1 | * BackedByThePentagon: Among other things, filming at Navy training facilities, support from Navy aircraft and ships, including a submarine, and active-duty Navy [=SEALs=] playing the main characters. Interestingly, the Navy claims that no taxpayer money was used, as the combat scenes were filmed during scheduled training exercises. |
| 2 | * BreakawayPopHit: "For You" by Music/KeithUrban. |
| 3 | * CaliforniaDoubling: The scenes set in the Philippines were shot in Cambodia. |
| 4 | * CastTheExpert: 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. |
| 5 | * MoreDakka: The filmmakers stressed repeatedly that the most of the gunfire seen in the film was shot during live fire exercises and because [=SEALs=] are constantly practicing to hone their skills, they went through a healthy number of bullets by the time production wrapped. |
