The main character is shown holding the RAF rank of Wing Commander while also being portrayed as an SAS officer. The SAS is an Army regiment, and a Wing Commander is an RAF rank; the equivalent Army rank would be Lieutenant Colonel. The film does not explain any transfer or secondment between services.
