I don’t think that difference is THAT big. I’m sure a Great War era soldier would have accommodated to the modern drone war in no time. Rifle? Yeah, it just have an automatic fire mode nowadays, but the principle is the same. Trenches? Yeah, trenches! Artillery? Less artillery, but with addition of missiles and drones, so 20 km from the frontline isn’t safe anymore, but the principle is the same.
Slightly more differences for high officers, but those are working with maps and less affected to those differences.
Yeah, same thought here. Even if we reach back to the American Civil War, aside from mechanization, a professional soldier from that era might not find it too much different. The fire support, like cannons, are now usually a dozen miles away (or airborne), but a tank isn’t too distinctively different from an armored traincar, and really the biggest confusion might be the lack of high mobility forces like cavalry.

We put our cavalry in the sky now
