Idk how it is today with all the millennials and the older zoomers at adult height but in the 90s when Gen X was the youngest generation at adult height I definitely got the impression that Brits are shorter than Americans. I'm only 6'2" and felt like a giant instead of slightly above average. Of course at the time a decent number of WWI generation was around and lots of WWII and Korea generations around and they may have suffered from poor nutrition during the wars and the depression

Militaries I'm aware of didn't do left handed rifles. Their approach was "congratulations soldier you are now right handed and will learn to shoot right handed" One of the few accomodations I can think of is that since revolvers are pretty much ambidextrous and USGI M1911 semi auto pistols are definitely right handed if you was wrong handed you could get issued a WWI leftover M1917 revolver if you was a lefty.

@davidrenton and just because that's the case in 2023 doesn't mean it was necessarily the case in the past when some now gone or mostly gone generations was around
