sixcyl ◊ 2005-12-19 01:35	...often, they used allied forces vehicule for making film,because it was easier to find than real german ones...of course german forces had never operated such Ford M8 (except few which were captured...)
hiergehts ◊ 2006-05-05 05:27	Since the Greek military provided help in the making of this film and I'm sure they quickly got rid of any ex-Wehrmacht equipment that was left behind following the end of the war, there was little choice but to use the US replacement armoured equipment as 'German'.
