Not much of a reader now my eyesight requires glasses.... but reading "John L. Plaster - The Ultimate Sniper_ An Advanced Training Manual for Military and Police Snipers " now... The fellow knows his stuff, you can gather that by leafing the first few pages.
Kinda funny because I will never be anything but an average shooter with limited mobility at best. But I like reading other's insights in things like this (if nothing else to know what you are up against if things get tough).
@Sighlass I took Plaster's place on Recon Team New York in Kontum when I first got there because he went off to the army sniper school in VN,and the team needed someone to fill in before he got back.
Can't remember when,but at some later date he quit running recon and spent the rest of his tour as a "Covey Rider" that flew around recon teams in trouble,and directed fire support as well as rescue helicopters to them after finding a clearing big enough for a slick to land in,and directing them to it.
Being a Covey Rider was a pretty complex job and you would always end up having to keep several "balls juggling in the air at the same time" by dealing with the team on the ground,the air support flying to their rescue to strafe and drop bombs (some USAF,and some USN) ,as well as any "Bright Light" team activated to come to their rescue on the ground if they were all wounded.
Sounds like a simple thing,but trust me,it's not.
