During the Doolittle Raid launch sequence, as the camera pans over the length of the aircraft carrier from the ship's starboard side, we can briefly see a double digit number that appears to be a 10 on the ship's island. The USS Hornet, the real-life Doolittle carrier, did not have her hull number painted on in such a way, and, in any case, her number was 8; the '10', actually a 16, belongs to USS Lexington, an Essex-class carrier commissioned long after the Hornet was sunk later in 1942, and where the sequence was filmed.
