Title: Vietnam Sniper
Post by: Frankie on February 13, 2013, 09:07:38 PM
If you have time you might find this interesting.  Perhaps some have heard in the news about the sniper Chris Kyle, a Navy Seal, with 160 confirmed kills, that was murdered & recently buried. There was a 200 mile trek for his burial.
That brought me to  Carlos Hathcock a Vietnam Marine sniper. It's amazing when you need the barometric pressure to make the shot, of course the wind & distance is computed.
