Live Action Military Scenes

I loved the live action military scenes in this cartoon! I believe they were from film footage of the Louisiana Maneuvers of September 1941. The tanks coming out of the garages are variants of the M2 Medium Tank, the forerunner of the M3 Lee. Also, there is a shot of an M3 Stuart light infantry tank without its main 37mm gun. Furthermore, there are clips showing M3 Scout Cars and horse mounted cavalry. All these were present at the Louisiana Maneuvers.
The aircraft shown are possibly Douglas Devastators from the U.S.S. Lexington's air group. I believe this to be so because of the canopy and shape of the fuselage on each aircraft. However, they might be Douglas Dauntless dive bombers or the USAAC's variant of the same plane.
