Description

Author Lena Sisco, a former Department of Defense Military Interrogator and U.S.

Navy officer, takes the reader through the missions and personal lives of U.S.

Marines who have been forward-deployed in hostile environments all across the Middle East.

She shows how they use the mastery of their sniper skills to mitigate threats and negate the enemy's ability to disrupt U.S. operations. Her book lets you feel the stress and anxiety of their operational tempo; you witness their successes and failures, their struggles, and lessons learned.

Snipers are highly trained, brave, silent warriors. They undergo specialized training and operate independently with little support from their parent commands, close to enemy positions.

Snipers are chosen based on their marksmanship, mental stability, patience, and physical ability.

They stalk the enemy, while concealed in their operational overwatches, to protect our checkpoints and convoys, and to direct action missions.

Despite the renown of Chris Kyle and the extraordinary success of the book and movie American Sniper, snipers do not have lead lives of glory and fame; their lives are a struggle.

Serving as a sniper requires that you do your job successfully every time, because the consequences of not being successful include the loss of innocent lives, or living with other consequences that can haunt a shooter till the day he dies.

In the end, just like any other service members, they put their lives on the line - willingly - to defend our freedom and liberties, and our country.
