Trivia

Vietnam

• The NVA Recon seems to have originally been the Medic model and vice versa as they were both shown in the other's role in early gameplay footage and trailers.
• In the trailer for Battlefield: Bad Company 2: Vietnam, the Recon character is seen equipped with an M16A1, which normally isn't available to that class.
