A Vichy French Army unit is sent to keep a bridge and deny access to Allied and Axis troops. Lead by the Captain de Lambérieux, he has to earn time when a German armored unit want to take the position from the French soldiers.
The following weapons were used in the film Carillons Sans Joie:
Very few German soldiers are seen holding rifles. No clearly shot allow a real identification of the rifle, it could be a Mauser Gewehr 1898, but the profile could let think it is a Kar98.
The FM 24/29 is the principal support weapon used by French troops, principaly the NCOs are seen using the FM. The Vichy French Army wasn't allowed by armistice convention to have heavy machine guns.
A side-car look like equiped with a MG34 when the French company cross a German soldiers near the beginning of the movie. But the shot is not very clean to be sure.
The US Half-Track is equiped by Browning M2 Heavy Barrel Quadmount mounted. At the end of the movie, a French and a US soldier try to shot down a German plane, thus provoking the battle.
