Loved your reaction, as always Dasha!
Here's a few answers and factoids:
When Hummel says ‘burn them out’
I think it’s a fuel air explosive. An FAE uses the oxygen in the air to create an intense explosion.
The grenade that the marine was trying to use in the morgue was a smoke grenade, not a frag grenade.
Parts of the film are accurate, from a military perspective, some parts not so much.
The grenade explosions were not realistic
SAS refers to the special air service, british special forces, comparable to US Delta or Seals.
One of Hummel’s mistakes was putting too much faith in the two captains that hadn’t served with him in combat before
One of the details that bugs me is how Hummel doesn’t have any spare magazines.
I don't know if you realized at the beginning that Hummel left his Medal of Honor on his wife’s tombstone
I believe the missile shot at the black marine would have actually penetrated his chest fully
Hatred between Irish and English is a real thing
Some of the actors are better trained to act like marines or seals

Your actor crush, Kyle Reese from Terminator knows how to make an excellent speech, he plays a good seal team leader in this movie. Kinda funny you didnt recognize him hehe.
