In October, 1918, Congressional Medal of Honor recipient, Sgt. Alvin York, working ALONE as he inched up on the German machine gun nest, recalled later, '"All I could do was to touch them off just as fast as I could. I kept yelling to them to come down. I didn't want to kill any more than I had to. And I was giving it the best I had".

He picked off 28 German soldiers who had unfortunately raised their heads and captured 132 of the enemy entrenched in the nest.

What's the difference today between Sgt. York's WWI lone sniping at the enemy......and our armed services' WW2 lone snipers.....and Chris Kyle's lone sniping at the enemy in the Iraq War?

Rhetorical question, of course. But your comments on these heroic marksmen will be interesting.
