I read a cavalryman back then could swear for 20 minutes straight without repeating himself.

And a good DI can do the same thing today
Mine certainly could in the 70s!
I heard a story that R. Lee Ermy was originally hired to coach the actor who was going to be the DI in Full Metal Jacket. Supposedly he cursed for 20 minutes without repeating himself while Kubrick bounced tennis balls off him to try and distract him. This impressed the director and Ermy got the part instead of the actor they had planned on using.
don't know if its true, and can't say its not, but there's been talk!
