Carry on, Sergeant!
|
Carry on, Sergeant! is a 1928 Canadian World War I silent film directed and produced by Bruce Bairnsfather. The story follows a group of workers from Hamilton who join the army to fight on the Western front and the travails and temptations that befall them during the war.
The following weapons were used in the film Carry on, Sergeant!:
Revolvers
Colt New Service
Sgt. Bob MacKay is armed with a Colt New Service revolver.
Rifles
Lee-Enfield No. 1 Mk. III
Canadian soldiers are armed with British Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk.III rifles, which is historically incorrect as the Canadian forces were armed with Ross Rifles during the Second Battle of Ypres. German soldiers also use this rifle instead of correct Mauser Gewehr 1898 rifles.
Berthier Mle. 1907/15
French-Maroccan soldiers can briefly be seen with Berthier Mle 1907-15 rifles on April 22, 1915.
Machine Guns
Maxim 1895
Canadian soldiers are equipped with Maxim 1895 machine guns. The usage of this Maxim is not entirely wrong because the British Expeditionary Force was still equipped with Maxims when sent to France in 1914.
Maxim MG 08
A Maxim MG08 is fired by German soldiers.
Other
Webley & Scott No. 1 Mk. III*
A German soldier holds a Webley & Scott No. 1 Mk. III* Signal Pistol as he is captured by Bob MacKay.
