Yeah, we did also practice other ways but it wasn’t a requirement. Our requirements were grinding endurance stuff like pack all your stuff and carry it 12 miles. Then do a running rifle qual. (You’re running until it’s your turn to shoot, or really more like shuffling in this case)
And the women were certainly hard, they just didn’t get the same level of training because civilians couldn’t handle the thought of them fighting. Which is ridiculous. They ended up on the front lines anyway, just less prepared.
