My hats off toTed Gundy and to all our military snipers past, present, and future. They protect lives on the field and get little reward.

Very cool video.

If I were president there would be a few dozen of these guys on the border...only to warn mexicans away from the 1000 yard solar powered laser field I would have installed... :whistle:
No more catchy slogans for me...I am simply fed up...4...four...4...2+2...

I saw this recently too. These folks are National Treasures and love seeing them treated with the reverence they've earned. Amazing how humble they are too.

This man did it all with equipment that most people would laugh at nowadays back in WW 2. As most old snipers will tell you what we would could or would have done with the equipment that they have nowadays.
Laser range finder
Humidity guage
M-24 or a M-40 sniper weapon
and the list goe's on

God bless him
