      Soviet school curriculum actually had a little bit of that. Well, how to tell ranks, what to do in case of war (also fire alarm or any other emergency), first aid, disassembly and assembly of the AK rifle, orientation on terrain and basic survival skills, not sure about actually firing at targets - I wasn’t alive back then.

      In our school (I was born in 1996) there was literally one time where our class was taken to a shooting range, but it was more like a tour. The got to shoot a few rounds at targets, yes. The first aid, ranks and AK disassembly\assembly parts I do remember.

      There were war-themed games (“Zarnitsa” etc) teaching coordination, subordination, orientation, and of course using radio (to communicate and to intercept the other team’s communications). EDIT: That I only heard about.
