My own theory is that the technical advisors were limited to making sure the medal ribbons were in the right order and weren't allowed to comment on anything actually submarine related. That's why you get bits like the American CO ordering his disguised S-boat to submerge, immediately followed by the sound of the SURFACE alarm.
