Or seeing modern movies with Air Force using outdated chevron configurations or the old style hats.

Couldn't tell you, it was on TV, probably a made for tv movie, to be honest. Most of them get it right.

I haven't been to the movies lately but I have an inkling that something like Transformers 2 may fit that bill.

Actually no. Saw it last night, and from what I could see they got the uniforms right.

One of the worst is seeing how some TV shows have actors portraying Army personnel wearing the beret. There was an episode of Law and Order in particular that was just atrocious.

If it makes you guys feel any better, the entertainment industry routinely butchers baseball umpire's uniforms and mechanics as well.

TV is the worst on military uniforms and hair cuts.

I saw one of their shows once that portrayed a doctor wearing a pair of pants that had knee patches! Talk about not being authentic!
