Quote from "Gun Drill for 40mm AA gun....Land Service...1945"

Section 33.- Engagement of ground and sea targets
Ground and sea targets may be engaged at Gun Control up to 2300 yards range, using adjustable hindsights.
Tanks, however, should not normally be engaged at ranges beyond 500 yards, and A.tk ammunition will be used. Unarmoured targets will usually be engaged with H.E ammunition.
The Detachment Commander indicates the target to 2 and 1 in that order, and orders it, e.g., "Tanks right, moving left, 3 tanks, last tank" or " E-boats, front, moving left, front boat ".
2 and 3 report "On" when they see the target in their open sights or telescopes, whichever are in use.....

Let me take this opportunity to congratulate you on a really professional job! The army would not have done it better!
