The legionnaires use what look like modified Great War Italian Pineapple grenades. France purchased many Grenades from Italy during WW1 and started building their own after a while. Though this film takes place in the post-WW2 years, the production seemed to use Italian Pineapple style training grenades, to impersonate French F1s or American Mk IIs.
