JMP475;
My mom's baby brother was an Army Sniper at Pork Chop Hill.
Never mentioned it. Did his job.
Humbles me.
Thanks for the video.

That was a very impressive video. The respect showed to Mr Ted Gundy by the others invovled was what impressed me the most.
Mr Ted Gundy's skills were impressive. I as others can only hope to be half as good at that age.
Clanging the gong at 300 with the 1903-A4 with that low power scope was as impressive as the 1000 yard shot. The difference in technology between the two weapon systems makes the one much better at 1000 yards than the other.

The only way to know if you can do a thing is to do it.

I am always in awe just looking at those guys, imagineing what they lived through given the circumstances, the gear, the distance from home, and the age of alot of those guys. It makes me proud to be an American.
