Are all SEALS trained as snipers or just some?
I do know one of their “mottos” or whatever it would be called
“You can run, but you will just die tired”
Told to me by the girlfriend of a sniper.
When she told me his occupation, I stopped flirting with her...LOL
(He was on a roof top nearby)
Some.
theyre all cross trained
.....seals are crossed trained in most aspects of each "job".....
.....individual seal teams do however, have specialty mission capabilities.....
A SEAL Plattoon (16-Men) will usually have several members with sniper training. Beside sending their personnel to other sniper courses the SEALs run their own courses which emphasize naval-specific operations.
Special Operations Forces (SOF) [the generic US term for all spec ops forces] usually have a high percentage of sniper-trained pesonnel. Just like LEO SWAT teams, they are also used for scouting and overwatch.
Modern SOF snipers have a range of weapons and sights. THey fit the weapon to the job.
