What's left behind the scenes

Viggo Mortensen prepared for the role of Sergeant Major Argyle separately from Demi Moore and the other actors, who trained at a camp in Florida. Mortensen observed the training of military personnel at the Naval Base Coronado in California and often spoke with former and current members of the Navy SEALs. The actors, with the exception of Moore, were extremely unhappy that they had to actually train while Mortensen was "somewhere relaxing." Mortensen was counting on eliciting this reaction.
A room on the grounds of one of the training camps in Florida, where parachutes for jumps were stored, served as the barracks.
In reality, another 19 years passed before women began to be accepted into the special forces units of the US Navy. Training for women to serve in the Navy’s special forces began only in March 2016. 99.99% of candidates are unable to complete the training course.
Candidates for training in special forces units write essays while in a state of physical exhaustion, experiencing hunger and sleep deprivation. At this time, in the next room, Viggo Mortensen's character reads “Twilight Land” (1974), the debut novel by Nobel laureate J.M. Coetzee about methods of psychological warfare during the Vietnam War.
Some footage of submarines was provided by Ridley Scott's brother, Tony Scott (1944-2012); it remained unused after the editing of his 1995 film, 'Crimson Tide'.
Shortly before filming began, Demi Moore attempted to contact US President Bill Clinton and ask him to instruct the US Department of Defense to assist in the production of the film. Her attempt was unsuccessful.
According to Ridley Scott, Sam Rockwell was initially cast for one of the roles in the film and even rehearsed for a while before being forced to leave the project due to either illness or injury.
The award in the book of poetry at the end of the film is the Navy Cross, the second highest award for valor in combat (only surpassed by the Medal of Honor, the highest US military award).
