How Is A Sniper A Coward?

This is for #ANYONE who thinks a #Sniper is a Coward, whether they work with or for the Government of the US, be it Law Enforcement or Military. Here are a few facts to remind you otherwise!

First fact! A sniper does not just become a sniper. There are constant and very consistent training and practice standards paced on these individuals. It is a lifestyle unlike any other. It is both physical and psychological requiring the utmost in patience and attention to detail. Their nerves have to be within 1% of the most steady of any other occupation. After the rigorous training and endurance's, then you have an uncommon #HazardOfOccupation.... The #SNIPER during any engagement is the most sought after #TargetEngagement by any enemy. He is most often the only man with a #PriceOnHisHead. The enemy considers them the #MostEffective of enemy tactics because of their ability to engage from “ANY distance (Only limited by mechanics of the weapon and load), and their ability to #EngageWithoutPrejudice.

Now, I am not detailing the training or specifics of any operations, but, I am asking one simple question... “Would you take an occupation which made you the most sought after enemy of any foreign faction”? Would you consider one to be a coward when they have to enter an enemy infested #WarZone, alone in most cases, take out a target or often #MultipleTargets, knowing that your chances of being extracted depend solely on you ability to become/stay invisible?

To #ANYONE who refers to a #SNIPER as Cowards, all I have to say is “If Ignorance is Bliss, you are one #HappySonOfABitch” and have no idea what you are talking about!

To all who serve or have served #HooRaaH to you all! To the dedicated men/women who become #Snipers, I salute you for your #Courage, Commitment and Honor and Thank GOD for your gift which saves so many lives in time of war! #ISALUTEYOUALL
