The sniper has special abilities, training and equipment. His job is to
deliver discriminatory, highly accurate rifle fire against enemy targets, which
cannot be engaged successfully by the rifleman because of range, size, location,
fleeting nature, or visibility. Sniping requires the development of basic
infantry skills to a high degree of perfection. A sniper's training incorporates
a wide vatiety of subjects designed to increase his value as a force multiplier
and to ensure his survival on the battlefield. The art of sniping requires
learning and repetitiously practicing these skills until mastered. A sniper must
be highly trained in long-range rifle marksmanship and fieldcraft skills to
ensure maximum effective engagements with minimum risks.
