The caption is misleading, as the photo is a still from the 1943 Canadian Army Overseas training film, "The Ronson Flamethrower ". Ronsons were never used in France, only Wasp IIs. Perhaps the censor was unwilling to release a photo of the Wasp or there were no shots of it available that looked so dramatic.
