The Sniper and Designated Marksman programs need to be vastly expanded in the U.S. Military. Though I was in the U.S. Army I believe the U.S. Marine Corp has the best Sniper Training Program. The U.S. Military needs to greatly expand the scope and number of both Sniper teams and Designated Marksmen as they are they greatest force multipliers for the money expended. A force of Snipers can disrupt even an armored force way out proportion to their numbers by disrupting their command structure. Taking out commanders and blinding view ports, disrupting refueling and re-arming operations from extended ranges. With the use of night and thermal sights no one is safe at night or even in smoke. New long rage rounds, rifles, and optics allow first round hits out to 1400 yards and beyond with advanced silencers for suppressing sound signatures. A scoped sighted rifle is the most effective weapon against a crew served weapon. Most of the kills in Grenada were by American Snipers and American Snipers in over watch positions reaped havoc on insurgents and terrorists in both Iraq and Afghanistan. America needs to deploy more Snipers down to the Platoon level of the American Military and Designated Marksmen into every squad. Precision shooting both to eliminate threats and suppress enemy fire is what we need. One bullet through the head of an enemy commander or a crew served weapons operator is worth more than a thousand spraying the countryside.
We need to hunt down our enemies and make them terrified to show their faces least an American trained marksman remove it with a bullet they never heard fired. The Sniper is the most feared man on a battlefield so we need to use that fear to shape and control not only the battlefield space but our enemies minds. Defeat him before he ever makes his first move. Paralyze him with fear and then back it up with precision fire when he dares show himself reinforcing that fear!
