I don't know where the comments regarding the uniforms depicted came from but if there was any mistake in the way the soldiers depicted were uniformed, the error would be by the filmmaker and not the Times. The film is about four Algerian soldiers who fought in World War II and the film is Algerian French. Fact: the Algerian fighters did not wear the uniforms of the regular French Army. Some wore uniforms from World War I and others whatever they were given since they came from a hot country and their clothing not suited for the European climate. They were called Wogs and treated as inferiors.
