[QUOTE="7magcreedmoor, post: 1940309, member: 48559"] Herbert W. McBride is often credited with being the "father" of modern sniping. An American who went to Canada to enlist for WW1 (imagine that, someone going TO Canada to get INTO a war instead of running north to avoid one...). Serving under British authority, he demonstrated the usefulness of a skilled rifleman seeking targets of opportunity. He also did some impressive things with heavy machine guns. He wrote a book on each subject. [/QUOTE]
