The only vehicles which actually did see action in North Africa in WW2 would have been the M-7 Priest Gun Motor Carriage and the M3 half-tracks being used by the Germans in "The Rat Patrol."
Revealing mistake: Through the whole show, the submachine guns (Thompson's, MP40's, etc.) do not eject spent cartridges after being fired.
