* The real executive officer of K-19 during the reactor accident (upon whom Liam Neeson's character was [[VeryLooselybasedOnATrueStory very loosely based]]) was [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vasily_Arkhipov_(vice_admiral) Vasily Arkhipov]]. The following year Arkhipov, as flotilla commander and executive officer of the submarine B-59, would be the single dissenting voice preventing the launching of a nuclear-armed torpedo during the Cuban Missile Crisis.
