86-year-old veteran sniper still has it.

Thanks for sharing the link. I watched the video with tears in my eyes....to see a member of a vanishing generation being received with such awe and respect...to see him being honored in a manner that is fitting of one who Was There. Then to see that aged veteran pull off 3 head shots at 1000 yards....I seriously would not want that old man shooting at me! A 5 inch grouping at 1000 yards! That is some serious shooting by anyone at any age.

Great video,it does my heart good to see one of our veterans get the recognition that he so richly deserves.Thanks for posting this!
 
how awesome...i liked how impressed the currant military man was with the results of the hero....he seemed to be in awe of him....

but i was thinking the entire time i was watching......did it bring bck memories for him of people he had killed?....or does he see those dead as "enimey combatants" only...if you understand what i mean...
 
I just watched the video again.....5 inch group at 1000 yards....3 head shots back to back....I don't care who you are, or how old you are....that is some exceptional shooting!
