The Thompson was used by American soldiers. Captain MIller used this submachine gun. It uses a .45 caliber bullet and was one of the most reliable machine guns of the war. The large .45 caliber bullet was more powerful than the German 9 millimeter MP40, thus giving it a deadly and feared reputation. It was later replaced by the M3 grease gun in 1944. Since the Grease gun replaced the Thompson, the tommy gun shouldn't even be used in the movie.
