They sure played up the Dauntlesses, which is correct, but they didn't even mention the Wildcats and Buffaloes, or the Catalinas that found the Japanese fleet in the first place, and they didn't mention the four B-26s that tried a torpedo attack, either. The Devastators that went down to attempt torpedo attacks barely got a mention, and every single one of them went down.
Yes, the SBDs got and deserved the lion's share of the credit, but the other pilots and aircrewmen got short shrift in that movie, and they earned accolades, too. After all, they set things up for the Dauntlesses.
