Continuity: After crashing, the pilot jumps from his burning plane with the back of his jacket on fire. The flames are extinguished but after a short dialogue, the pilot is seen walking from the scene from behind with not even a scorch mark on his jacket.

Factual error: A German pilot drops a roll of film to the RAF commanders to let them know that POWs are being housed in the chateau. When viewed the film shows the POWs arriving in three US-made GMC trucks escorted by a US-made half-track - all vehicles just have German insignia slapped on the sides to make them look authentic.
