1. This isn't WW2, this is a political mission being carried out by the military (which is a whole different conversation).
2. It's not 1945, even 1960s TV shows used language that no-one would use in public today.
3. I doubt any of those officers would be successful in the current military, Patton probably wouldn't make it through the psychological screening.
