Here is a youtube video of Jocko Willink interviewing Dave Berke about the movie. Dave was a senior Top Gun instructor and says he’s the only pilot he knows of to have qualified in the F16, F18, F22, and F35. Lot’s of cool first hand knowledge about the Top Gun program.

The youtube video that BiglyCommentary linked is a superb recap of Dave Berke's career as a Marine Corps fighter pilot and Top Gun instructor.

Dave was a 13 year old kid when he saw the original Top Gun Movie. He decided then and there that he wanted to be a fighter pilot.

He relates his experiences as a fighter pilot & Top Gun Instructor to the Top Gun movie.

There is a couple of "Spoiler Alerts" in the interview. So, if you plan to see the movie, bookmark the interview and see the movie first.
