The General's daughter is leaving the formal occasion in her dress uniform. It is highly unlikely that someone would be driving a dirty tactical vehicle in the most expensive clothes that they would ever own. In addition, she pulls a tire iron from the hummer to assist Travolta. Hummers do not have spare tires. They are equipped with run flat tires, so would have no need to carry a tire iron. And those lug nuts won't budge without an impact wrench. [While it's unlikely she would be riding in an tactical vehicle in a dress uniform, most HMMWVs do have spare tires equipped on them; and the tools to change it too in the BII (Basic Item Issue). Even with runflats, it wouldn't be wise to not have one, especially nowadays with the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The runflat is only good for a couple of miles before the tire eventually shreads enough to allow the rim to hit the ground like a regular tire and needs to be changed. An impact isn't needed to loosen the lugs, in fact in some cases you need to use the tire iron to break the seal on the nut if it's too tight before the impact can do the rest.]

When John Travolta is searching the dead woman's house he has latex gloves on. When he pulls out his gun and heads into the basement, his gloves are gone when he turns on the light. Then they reappear a few seconds later. See more...

John Travolta's character (et al.) salute early in the morning (before sunup) while a bugler plays "reveille". The bugler should have been playing "colors". Unless the Army is completely different from the Navy, Old Glory is hoisted up the flagpole at 8:00am, at which time the sun would have been up anywhere in the continental U.S. [In the Army, "reveille" is played when the flag goes up in the morning. The time that the flag is raised each day is decided by the post commander, therefor, different army posts raise their flag at different times.]
