While their job is to tackle the enemies from a distance and through a scope, snipers in each branch of the armed forces have their own unique training and roles in warfare. Modern Sniper gives you a look into what it takes to be a top-notch sniper as it explores the Marine Corps snipers, where you have to be skilled in camouflage, stalking techniques, marksmanship, and surveillance, the Coast Guard, where they’re armed with heavy artillery to go against drug runners, and the Army, where warfare technology keeps advancing at such a pace that they require constant up-to-date training. Modern Sniper delves into how ordinary men are trained and molded into inventive and deadly soldiers.
