I am reaching what kind of tiring snipers go through. I will try to get most of my information from google. So most of the snipers go through acutely all snipers go through a school to learn how to be a good sniper in the field. They have to learn how to overcome the elements of the world like wind, air temperature, and gravity. But they have to be good at marksmanship, observation, and stalking. Now I am going to tell you some stuff about what they do to be ready for the field, it’s the big things that they train on. Observation training the snipers play a game called KIM S game they instructors will place items in the field, then the snipers have to look at them, and go for a full day of practices, then at the end of the day write down what they saw, as they go on there is more items and less time. The stalk training is another game the play in a grassy field there are two instructors that set in a car or a tower with spotting scopes, and there are two people walking around, if anyone see you fail so the sniper has to crawl from one thousand meters to one hundred fifty meters and take the shot …show more content…
on the instructors but they have to be careful so that the muzzle doesn’t kick up dust because then it would be easy to see. The guns that snipers as they use a gun that can usually kill the man in one shot which are usually M-21 or a PSG-1.
The M-21 is a big gun it is a semi-automatic the shell is a 7.62x51mm NATO cartridge and it is also made by the United States army, and the PSG-1 is a semi-automatic the shell is 7.62x51 NATO cartridge it is also made by the Germans. Both of these guns are called match grade rifles, which are rifles that are finely tuned by a professional gunsmith. The military snipers like the bolt action rifles because there are not as many moving parts and not as many things can go wrong with them. The snipers that they use cost about eight-thousand to fifteen-thousand and that’s not the shells, or the site the sight that they get is about anywhere from five-hindered by one-hindered, then you got bullets and they aren’t cheap either they are about twenty dollars a
box. Snipers date back to the American revolutionary war the colonist would shoot the generals from four-hindered yards, they used a baker rifle witch were much more accurate than smoothbore musket. But the first sniper rifles made was called the Whitworth rifle whit the hexagonal barrels, that was made by Sir Joseph Whitworth. Whitworth rifle was able to hit a target at about two-thousand yards. Then in World War 2 the British started to train their own snipers in 1915. So there for snipers have been around since basically as long as guns have.
In “The Sniper” the conflict is man vs man, which means main character is tasked with killing his enemy, but it proves to be quite a challenge. Even though there were many challenges the sniper followed through with his job and persevered even after he was shot in the arm. Wanting to kill his enemy, stay alive, and be one step closer to ending the war was his main goals. Being brave, he took off his hat, placed it on his gun, and raised it above the edge of the roof. Instantly the enemy shot at it and the sniper, pretending to be dead, waited until the enemy got up for him to shoot him. He did some quick thinking and, with determination, handled the conflict quite well.
This training helps them in real missions to prepare them for their determination, skills and techniques.

Rainsfords, Montresor, Walter Palmer, and The Sniper all killed. The Sniper was most justified killing his enemy. Three reasons why are because the brother shot first, he didn’t know it was his brother, he didn’t want to die he was already shot,it was a war. This could have happened to anyone. It was sad when that happened. This is why Why The Sniper is justified for killing his brother
In Liam O'Flaherty's "The Sniper," all of these. are brought to an acute reality in a single war-torn city. Strong cerebral convictions and opposing philosophies, due to which people want to destroy the seemingly “wrong” plague this world and are the ones who are the ones who are the main reason for the plight. To aid in his creation of such emotional conflict, turmoil and plight, the author has portrayed the sniper as a very controversial character in the story. This story is oriented around one character in the Civil War which he should not even be in as he is. mentioned to be a “student” in the story.
As we saw earlier, both authors of both stories were born in different places and did many things. “The Sniper” sets in Dublin, Ireland, during a time of a bitter civil war. It was a war between the Republicans, which wanted Ireland to become ...
Field Training is where it starts to introduce the recruits to living conditions on the field and then try to get you used to them since your going to be doing this a lot (Marine Corps). They teach the recruits how to set up a tent, to sanitation and camouflage. The recruits also get the chance to go through the Gas Chamber which is basically where recruits go into a gas chamber and they drop non-lethal gas into the chamber then they are instructed to take their gas mask off and stay in the chamber for 3-5 minutes after that they are able to leave the gas room.
Staff Sergeant (SSGT) Louis Moeller shaped me into the Recon Marine I wanted to be and the Non-Commissioned Officer (NCO) that I am now. By embodying the Recon Creed and always setting the example, he made me want to be an NCO that my troops would look up to and want to follow. Even when not in charge he was constantly the one peers and junior Marines alike, turned to for guidance and inspiration. To this day, I still find myself asking “What would Louis do?” when confronted with a leadership dilemma.
The most difficult barrier to conducting initial individual training is the varying backgrounds of all of the soldiers. In ...
Colonel Mathew Moten once said, “Professions are not professions simply because they say they are. Their clients, society as a whole, have to accept their claims and trust the professions with jurisdiction over important areas of human endeavor”.
The basics that the new agents train for are; firearms, operational skills, physical training and becoming a real agent. In the physical training category you are tested in: the number of sit-ups in a minute; a timed three hundred meter sprint; the number of pushups without stopping (untimed); a timed one and a half mile run. To be in the FBI you have to be willing to push your body to its physical limits. The firearms that the new agents are scored on are the, bureau-issued pistol, an assault rifle called the carbine, and a shotgun. The training for firearms is over; gun safety,...
The events that were portrayed in “Black Hawk Down” drastically affected the U.S.’ foreign policy during the 1990’s. The U.S soldiers went into a country in East Africa called Somalia. They went into the one city, Mogadishu, to capture top lieutenants of the warlord Mohamed Farrah Aidid. The mission was only supposed to take an hour, but it ended up lasting the entire night into the next morning. It was a short war that the U.S. never wanted to get into.
Introduction: The Infantry faces many different challenges when it comes to making the training realistic and valuable to keep our infantrymen ready to fight in today’s complex operating environment. The term “train as you fight” is not necessarily true when training in a garrison atmosphere. The doctrine or methods of training used by the conventional infantry are outdated and paralyzed with range limitations and unrealistic guidelines and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). The infantryman is a master of his assigned weapon system, and the Army needs to do better at preparing our Soldiers for the battlefield. Marksmanship skills are essential for any unit conveyed to a wartime theater. This paper will examine the four significant army marksmanship
Assures us that Walter Dean Myers claim is even more accurate due to the fact he believes war is way different than what they are trained to do. In this article just by the title you can assume that they aren’t trained to do what they should. Soldiers should have tougher training at home before they can have a life and death situation in Iraq or wherever they are deployed. “I went to one knee and brought my piece up to my shoulder the scope was full of dust and I fired looking over the barrel panning across the road.”(102). This was his first crossing with action out of Birdy’s comfort zone. Many situations have probably occurred such as his but might have gone in a wrong direction in order for people to be told the military can “barely
