Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Douglas MacArthur — The entry states MacArthur graduated first in his class from West Point in 1903 with an average of 98.14%, the third-highest score ever recorded; this claim is disputed and not definitively verified as the third-highest ever.

Douglas MacArthur — The entry states MacArthur was instrumental in quelling the Philippine Scout Mutiny in 1924; this is historically inaccurate as the mutiny was suppressed by other officers.

US Marine Corps — The entry states 'Medal of Honor: Vanguard (2020)' as a prominent appearance, but no such game exists; the correct title is 'Medal of Honor: Vanguard' released in 2007.

82nd Airborne Division — The player character in Medal of Honor: Allied Assault is Lieutenant Mike Powell, not Sergeant Frank Woods.

82nd Airborne Division — The 82nd Airborne Division was commanded by Major General Matthew Ridgway upon its reconstitution as an airborne division on 15 August 1942, not Major General Omar Bradley.

US Navy SEALs — The setting of Medal of Honor (2010) is not 1980 Iran during Operation Eagle Claw; the game is set in the modern day (circa 2001-2010) and follows Tier 1 operators in Afghanistan, not the 1980 hostage rescue attempt.

US Navy SEALs — Operation Eagle Claw is not depicted in Medal of Honor (2010); the game's narrative is fictional and based on post-9/11 conflicts, not the 1980 Iran mission.

Afghan Guide — Medal of Honor: Airborne (2007) is set during World War II, not Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan.

Afghan Guide — The Afghan Guide does not appear in Medal of Honor: Airborne; the game features no Afghan characters or local guides.

DreamWorks Interactive — The Redmond studio was not consolidated within Microsoft; the Redmond location was a separate studio that Microsoft acquired and later folded into its own operations, but it was not part of the original joint venture structure as described.

Allied Assault — The protagonist is awarded the Distinguished Service Cross, not the Legion of Merit.

Allied Assault — The character Major Jack Grillo is an S.O.E. agent, not S.A.S.
