The Service Dress Blue jacket LT Maryk wears has the proper Lieutenant stripes but lacks the Line Service Star in some scenes and the star magically appears in others. Additionally, the jacket without stars is worn by other officers periodically throughout the film.
The gymnasium floor where trial is held has modern basketball court markings.
The officer sitting to Captain Blakely's right (the audience's left) wears a Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal (a green ribbon with two symmetrical vertical orange stripes). The story takes place in 1944, but the Navy did not award an achievement medal, first known as the Navy Achievement Medal, until 1961.
