The whole article seems a bit PC to me. Since when do we name names of soldiers, especially snipers who have taken out the enemy, and publish pictures of them on the Internet?

Read the article again and pick up the code words:

"Although killing with a single shot carries an enormous cachet". OK, snipers relate to the "Cachet" of what they are doing all the time.

"spitting out a mouthful of chewing tobacco". Maybe the more sensitive, PC reader, will conjure up an image from the movie "Deliverance" and get the real message that the writer is trying to convey.

I am sorry, but something doesn't pass the smell test here.

I love our troops, who are making the supreme sacrifice in their military service to our country, but there is something bogus about this article.

There is too much information in this article that would never have been released by the units involved.

I do have similar perceoptions to you, this all sounds "unreal" or like "hype" , and I am not sure that I believe any of this BS.
