A military advisor refers to AH-64 Apache attack helicopters as "Douglas AH Apache Longbows". The correct designation is the "AH-64D Apache Longbow". The "AH" simply indicates that it is an attack helicopter but does not signify the type. F-22 fighters are never referred to as Lockheed-Martin "F" Raptors and the Apache would never be simply called an "AH". Furthermore, Douglas Aircraft Company merged with McDonnell Aircraft in 1967 (creating McDonnell Douglas) long before the Apache helicopter even existed. So referring to the manufacturer as Douglas is a significant misnomer. The Apache was originally produced by Hughes, then by McDonnell Douglas, and is currently built by Boeing (and had been for several years before this episode aired). So at the time it would have been correctly identified as a Boeing AH-64D Apache Longbow. And while McDonnell Douglas would probably still be acceptable, it's doubtful a military expert would ever refer to the Apache as having been made by Douglas. See more »
The staff manages the President's first veto, trying to assure it won't be overridden. Democratic congressmen hold them hostage, until they realize they can get the votes they need from republicans for much less. Josh has a meeting with an Indiana governor (Kevin Tighe - ROAD HOUSE, MUMFORD) who might challenge Bartlet in the primary. A fantastic scene. C.J. slaps down a snarky entertainment reporter. The debut of Thomas Kopache (NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN) as Asst. Sec. of State Bob Slattery, who would do fourteen episodes over the duration of the show (and is also one of only four actors to play seven different characters on STAR TREK).
