    When he's in the Gulag talking to the prison guard that gets thrown in with him, he mentions enlisting to go to Vietnam and how the "Commie bastards like you descended on the south like a plague". It's brief but I was like holy shit that's a bold take. Of course it wouldn't be out of character for an American cop to say but it still had me going "wait what the fuck".
