When the deputy is chasing the SEAL vehicle before the crash, the deputy is depicted on the wrong (passenger) side of the vehicle in several scenes.
When Harriet shows Bud their new house, she points out the kitchen beyond the den, at one end of the building, in the front; however, when Tiner and the admiral visit, they stand in the center hall, just inside the front door, then Bud says, "The kitchen is this way," and he leads them toward the rear of the hall and the rear of the house, away from the den, the kitchen, and the front of the house.
While speaking to Harm and Mac, the admiral describes Tracy as having graduated from the School of Law at "UVa" (the University of Virginia) and having served on the Harvard Law Review; however, those two points are inconsistent with each other. If she attended UVa, and if she worked on a law review, then she did so on the Virginia Law Review, not the Harvard Law Review. Conversely, if she served on the Harvard Law Review, then she attended Harvard University, not the UVa. [In this context a law review is a student-edited publication; UVa students edit the Virginia Law Review, and Harvard students edit the Harvard Law Review.]
The police car is shown coming out from a 90 degree angle side road after the SEAL vehicle passes by. There are many trees on the side where the SEAL vehicle approached. The deputy is alleged to have clocked the SEAL vehicle on a hand held RADAR gun. This would not be possible due to the deputy not having a line of sight to see the vehicle and the radar would not work through that many trees.
During the high-speed chase the deputy sheriff does not wear a seat belt, although the two SEALs in the Impala do wear theirs. The dialogue does not contain even one word (from any character) about the deputy's mistake.
When the SEAL backs up to the crash site, the backup lamp on the left side of his Impala fails to burn (although the one on the right side does burn).
Near the end the military judge comments that the "state's attorney" will have some questions for the sheriff about his behavior. However, since the action takes place in the Commonwealth of Virginia, the proper and customary title is the "commonwealth attorney".
