There is a vintage anit-tank rifle training film on youtube. It was produced by Disney. The film starts with a cartoon and then gets into the serious training. YouTube link

Enjoy!

Yes, seen this before, very funny, and hopelessly optimistic!

Interesting, not least that they spelt armour the British way. Does that mean that "armor" is relatively recent thing?

Produced by Walt Disney corp. Not a surprise with the American spelling of "armor."

The titles say it is a Canadian production. Do the Canadians use the British or American spelling?

I think the Canadians still spell it properly – they certainly did back then.

PS – Does anyone know if this was one of Dr Seuss's efforts…?

In Norway PSM John Sheppard of the Leicesterhire Regiment took out two German tanks, probably PZIIs with a Boyes.

The point I was making was that it was a surpise that they used the British spelling since, as you say, Walt Disney corporation is US.
