The Telescope, Scout Regiment like most “modern” telescopes has an Erector Cell (the Army probably calls it a “Cell, Erector”) in the middle so the image viewed is the right way up and the sides are not reversed.
If Patrick O’Brian, Dewey Lambdin and others have got it right (they are usually well researched) Naval “bring’em near night glasses” in the Napoleonic era showed the image inverted and reversed. Not user friendly but the elimination of the loss of light transmission caused by the 2 or more lenses in the erector cell must have helped when it was dark.
