Homage to Heartbreak Ridge?

I've seen that movie plenty of times with Clint Eastwood. It's about him taking over some misfit Recon Marines supposedly in the early 80's during Grenada. But I just noticeds something last night. When they actually end up in Grenada, they get cut off from their command chain and can't request an airstrike. So they end up fixing a landline phone (early 80's) to call back to the US to relay the strike, but as the LT is calling, he screams "I need a credit card!" and one of the other guys has to give him one to complete the call.
The scene is very comparable with Transformers. Anyone know if it's intentional?
