regular force snipers and or special forces snipers?
you would be surprised at the modern implementation of the sniper in the battlespace.

Thanks Lithy,
Pity he couldn't ID himself so we knew who we are speaking to.
He's probably got more access to reliable info than we have.

Yep. I take the story from Australian's in the Boer War through to recent ops in Timor, Afghanistan and Iraq. Have received good support from our sniper teams in the battalions, and from our Inf Centre sniper master.
