-
Cavalry officers in the United States army are required to be skillful marksmen with the pistol as well as with the saber, and to receive the proper training under conditions as nearly like those in action as possible, target practices during charges are held. As a line dashes toward a string of overhead targets, the student officers draw their weapons and fire at a specified signal. The stunt develops quickness of eye, accuracy of aim and ease in firing from galloping horses.
