‘Tween war US Army’s Musketry Training

The footage above is from a US Army training film for officers and NCOs covering various stages of marksmanship training. The film discusses the make up of rifle squads and section and the deployment of their rifles and automatic rifles. It’s kind of dry (its an Army training film from 1935) but it’s good stuff if you are a fan of BARs (assault firing!) and M1903s (remember, the Garand was not adopted until 1936).
