5. If that's real
Then that's one editor who should never find work again.

7. Given how innacurate the portrayal was
I would not have been surprised in the least for them to have included air support.

But I did not notice that when I saw the film. Was too busy wincing, perhaps.

Btw, when I say "inaccurate" I mean to say how far from Homer's version of events.
