I always thought it was odd that it seemed like they couldn't find a British pilot to fly their helicopter or the AC-130.

I'm happy that they managed to avoid making the SAS stereotypical, so a few wrong terms is hardly something to complain about.

Hooa is used everywhere in the US Military, whereas oorah is specific to the USMC.

Which is ironic, because MoH was supposed to be the game that 'saved' the series.
