Goofs:
Factual errors: The medical examiner, describing the bullet that killed Hector, says that it "looks like it came through the neck here, snapping the cerebral cortex . . . ." The phrase "snapping the cerebral cortex" doesn't make any sense. From the X-ray, the bullet appears to have passed through the fifth cervical vertebra (C5). Injuries to C5 are not necessarily fatal, but in this case the bullet caused extensive secondary damage. more

I have watched every episode of The Unit up to this point, and while I have enjoyed this series it hadn't genuinely moved me, until Play 16.
The loss of a brother in arms was illustrated in heartbreaking detail. The reverence with which they handled the body, the solemnity of Gerhardt's vigil, the absolute adherence by his comrades to martial ritual in preparation for the funeral, the brutal reality of the bullet collection, and the sharp echo when Ramirez failed to respond to roll call, are all perfectly crafted moments that bring this show to an entirely new level.
Definitely the jewel of the series.
