TriviaEdit

• Sgt. John Baker re-appeared in Medal of Honor: Heroes.
• The appearance of Italian soldiers in the expansion pack made Allied Assault the first Medal of Honor game to feature Italian soldiers.
• The expansion pack has been noted for its historical inaccuracies and anachronisms, and received lower scores than Spearhead or Allied Assault.
• The 82nd Airborne soldiers that appeared in Mission 2 wear 101st Airborne arm patches and share the same face texture; this seems to be caused by a developer oversight.
• If you go to any fan-made level, it is possible to see the statistics with the picture that it was impossible to see before. Most likely, these statistics should have appeared after the mission in Italy, but given the fact that after the mission in Italy are credits, these statistics are not visible.
