Old man? He's younger than me and I'm just a kid!
God and the soldier we adore,
In times of danger, not before.
The danger gone, the trouble righted,
God's forgotten, the soldier slighted.

Because the angle of elevation is so small it's not going to make a huge difference.
If whatcalculated for how high he should be aiming is correct then the angle of elevation would be 4.46 degrees [inverse tan(78/1000)]. From this we can calculate the initial horizontal velocity as 972 ft/sec [975 cos (4.46)]
