I was wondering if anyone ever noticed the error in the original airing of the footage. I do remember watching the premier of the vid on Fox and happen to notice something amazing.
During the film they show the leg damage on the alien. Everyone knows about it and you can see it again in ZoooMer's pic right above this post. Well, during a viewpoint change in the film I was amazed to see that the damage to the right leg had suddenly switched to the left. I was thinking, there's no way they will get away with this! The right leg was suddenly fine and the left leg had a big hole in it. This was only for a few seconds and then when the scene changed again the damage was back on the right leg.
Did anyone else happen to notice this?
Don't mean to jump off topic but it is related.

I thought Surely they're not ALL officers; there's got to be somebody wearing stripes somewhere in that hanger...
Well, there is, but apparently the budget didn't allow for insignia, except for this one private, whose sleeve is just visible for an instant, who's wearing his sorry-looking stripe upside down:
It gets better. The US Army Air Forces never had a star on their chevrons, although they had stars on various unit shoulder patchs; the new Air Force didn't adopt the current chevron with a star sometime after March, 1948. Both services have always had chevrons or curved stripes, not straight ones.
The insignia this guy's wearing is a WWII aircraft marking!
(Click for some history.)
Just like your link shows unless you have the chevron patch right infront of you, can you really say that it wasn't an earlier type of the chevron patch from the link you specified.
