Although the army camp is supposed to be in Biloxi, Mississippi, there are palm trees in the background when Colonel Thornbush first addresses the troops.

When Judy finishes cleaning the latrine with her toothbrush she walks out of the room barefoot and carrying her black high heeled shoes. In the next shot, however, she is wearing red, knee-high rubber boots which subsequently disappear, leaving her barefoot again.
Thanks to Billy Wallace
Biloxi has palm trees, so that's not the error.

The error is the mountains in the background that are seen twice in scenes where they prominantly display the name and location of the army base. Biloxi doesn't even have anything resembling a 10 foot hill. I know. I lived there 19 years.

After graduation at the jazz club, the women are wearing their head gear inside which is not allowed.

When Judy is making her bed, she bounces a coin off of it and acts like she catches it. You can clearly see that she did NOT catch the coin. It lands near the pillow.
