We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.
This is a fiction/fan codex: entries describe an in-universe canon. Our audits check canon and internal consistency — external fact-checking does not apply the way it does on real-subject codexes.

Will Teasle — The claim that Rambo caused a helicopter pilot to lose control, leading to Deputy Galt's death, is inaccurate; in the film, Rambo throws a rock at the helicopter, startling the pilot, causing Galt to fall out and die.
Will Teasle — Teasle was not grievously injured by an M60 machine gun shot to the leg; in the film, Rambo shoots Teasle in the shoulder/upper chest area with an M60, not the leg.
General Rodion — The character is named 'General Rodion' in the entry title, but the correct canon name is Lieutenant Colonel Podovsky; there is no canon character named General Rodion in the Rambo films.
Green Beret Identity — The novel First Blood does not explicitly identify John Rambo as a former member of Army Special Forces; he is a former Green Beret, and the term 'Special Forces' is not used in the book, nor is his specific unit affiliation detailed as the entry states.
Cambodian Jungle — In the original novel by David Morrell, it is not Trautman who kills Rambo; it is Sheriff Teasle who shoots Rambo, and Rambo later dies from his wounds. Trautman does not kill Rambo with a shotgun.
Cambodian Jungle — The claim that Trautman's fictional biography states he was born on July 6, 1929, in Columbus, Ohio, is not supported by the films; no such specific birth date or birthplace is given in the movie canon.
US-Mexico Border Wall — In the novel First Blood, Rambo does not kill Teasle; Teasle survives the final confrontation, and Rambo is killed by Trautman with a single shot to the head. Teasle does not die in the novel.
Vietnamese River Deltas — The entry states US service of PBRs continued until 1975, but US riverine forces were largely withdrawn by 1972 and the US officially left Vietnam in 1973, so 'until 1975' for US service is incorrect.
Vietnamese River Deltas — The entry states development began after a January 1965 report from the Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake, but that facility is not associated with riverine warfare reports; this is a misattribution.
