Blooper
The Battle of Derna took place in 1805, as stated in the opening of the film. The flag that O'Bannion raises over the city of Derna shows only 15 stars. Kentucky was the 15th state to be admitted in 1792. Tennessee was admitted in 1796 and Ohio in 1803, making a total of 17 states by 1805, meaning the flag should properly have shown 17 stars.

In fact the 15-star flag was the official one from from 4 July, 1795 to 4 July, 1818 even though five more states would join the Union during that time.

Citazioni
Countess D'Arneau: Oh, I might have known.
Lt. O'Bannion: You're lucky, those sentries have orders to shoot to kill.
Countess D'Arneau: Why didn't you tell me that instead of scaring me to death?
Lt. O'Bannion: Nobody can tell you anything. We better get back before they take a shot at both of us.

Tripoli

In 1805 a small group of American Marines are assigned a dangerous mission against the rulers of Tripoli whose pirates have been plundering ships entering the Mediterranean.

Maureen O'Hara is feisty as always as the "Countess D'Arneau". She is the love interest/advisor to the refugee Pasha of Tripoli (Phillip Reed) whom the US government wants to see returned to his throne so the Tripolitan pirates will stop harassing US merchantmen. The underrated John Payne plays "O'Bannion" who leads a small group on a mission - it's an action-packed, colourful adventure with intelligent dialogue, love rivalry, struggles (sandstorm sequence, for example), subterfuge and romance. Payne's character can be a bit up himself, arrogant, but he's hero so he gets the leading lady. There's not much naval action, it's mainly set on land - the climax is quite exciting.
