[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 395616, member: 13632"] Everyone who thinks that questioning things has no effect on how troops should ask a sniper who has been there and lost friends there. During the last thread on the history channel sniper show I asked my brother in law if he had caught it and he had not so he finally caught it and I asked him what he though. He said it was hard to see one of the shots cause he was just down the road and the sniper was a friend, he then related the back story of that engagement. I then got him to check out the thread, the next time I talked to him he said that he would never visit this site again due to the disrespect displayed to military members with actual combat experience in the thread, this shocked me so I asked him about what he saw and he explained a lot on what these things do to the troops moral. If you think that going over these shots and tossing out our BS flags doesn't affect a sniper and what he thinks you are dead wrong, period. My brother in law went 3 rounds in Iraq as a Marine sniper and they shoot and know there weapons better than anyone on this site, he related in one night his team shot over 400 rounds, that's one night they shoot a lot!! Some amazing shooting that obviously know one will believe. These stories, true or not are very important to the actual sniper in the field. At this time of year and in this time in history troop moral is hanging by a thread and if you don't think discussions like this don't hurt then you need think again. Just my two cents, I have definite thought on this particular shot but an internet forum is not a place to go over it. Remember our troops tomorrow, with gratefulness and honor!!!! [/QUOTE]
