Seen this vid a bunch of times. The training in thge vid was in an era when men were men and sheep lived in fear, unlike todays PC world.

5 minute mark, the two hand hold shown is the classic cup and saucer, a no no today

14:40, apparently they believed standing unsupported was "point firing", interesting terminology used IMO
