Crosshairs on the Kill Zone
From the authors of the classic sniper chronicle "One Shot-One
Kill" comes a new generation of true tales from some of the most
expert and deadly marksmen in the world. Meet Adelbert Waldron II,
whose 109 confirmed kills in Vietnam made him the most successful
sniper in American military history, and Tom "Moose" Ferran, who
coined the term "Fetch ," whereupon the infantry would retrieve the
sniper's dead quarry. Also included are stories from snipers in
Beirut, the Bosnian conflict, and both wars with Iraq -- including
the feat of Sergeants Joshua Hamblin and Owen Mulder, who took down
thirty-two enemy soldiers in a single day outside Baghdad in 2003.
The military sniper has evolved into one of the most dangerous and
highly-skilled warrior professions. They suffer through weather,
terrain, and enemy action, lay unmoving for days on end, and take
out their targets with unerring accuracy -- proving that the
deadliest weapon in any battle, anywhere in the world, is a single
well-aimed shot.
