Italians and Germans had flamethrowing armor deployed in the European theatre.

flamethrowers were introduced by the Germans in 1915 during World War I. They were not widely used, however, until World War II, when the Americans found them especially useful, either hand-carried or mounted on tanks,

Yes, my grandfather carried one on to the beach at Omaha. It nearly drowned him stepping off the landing craft, so he quickly ditched it.
