Line 5:
* [[Star-Making Role]]: Warren Oates, despite a long career in film prior. He died a year after the film's release, making two films that were released posthumously.
** This was also the film debut of [[Harold Ramis]], who would later play Egon in ''[[Ghostbusters]]''.
* [[Throw It In]]: Quite a bit of the comic dialogue was improvised by the actors. In particular, the scene where everyone explains why they joined was entirely improvised by the actors.
* [[Unintentional Period Piece]]: Besides the [[Cold War]] setting, John and Russell are asked by an army recruiter whether either of them are homosexual, which points itself to pre-1994, before "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" first allowed LGBT people to serve in the military.
** Even more [[Hilarious in Hindsight]], since they are "willing to learn."
