Most of the people involved in production probably hadn't been born and those that had probably hadn't served, and the technical director probably wasn't conversant with photography equipment, the fact that they used the successor to the Medalist II, shows that they were at least trying. They probably thought it looked enough like the previous model to pass, not realizing it was a completely different design, different format even, 2 1/4 x 2 1/4 on 620 film for the Chevron, where the Medalist and Medalist II were 2 1/4 x 3 1/4 on 620 film.
I expect, given the time constraints on TV production, that the director told some gopher to go to Samys and pick up a 50s era camera.
