Hello
how I see the thing is that first the troops had means to use some of their own mgs also as AA weapon, meaning some AA mountings, sometimes in their vehicles, British had these for their Brens, German for their MG 34/42 etc. but US had the .50s. Then there is army's AA troops or AA- arms troops which were armed with light, easily moveable weapon, which could follow the troops almost everywhere, these were usually 20mm weapons but US had the 4-barrel .50, then there was heavier AAA weapon, 37/40mm class for more hittingpower and range for protection of valuable target, these usually were manned by proper AA troops but not always.
