What are the working hours of a US army sniper?
Which war? US Army snipers didn't officially exist until the 1980s (there was NO OFFICIAL USA Sniper school in the US; Vietnam USA snipers were trained in Vietnam at Division level or Brigade level if there was no division in country). Another words, when there was a war going on, US Army snipers were recruited (within ranks), put to work, then disbanded when the war ended. In VN, US Army snipers worked on the principle of "body count"; meaning when ever the "hunting" was good (an AO where VC or NVA were known to exist) then snipers were deployed (same with the USMC probably). If there was a big op, and communist activity was heavy (read lots of fighting with NVA regulars) then USA snipers were usually deployed to eliminate sappers (planting anti-tank mines), and RPG teams (rocket tms). Night time was the best time to eliminate sappers; anytime for the rocket tms.
