  • Good One for the Air Force...

    The real Miss America.
    A 19 year old ex-cheerleader (now an Air Force Security Forces Sniper) was watching a road that led to a NATO military base when she observed a man digging by the road. She engaged the target (i.e., she shot him for the not so swift). It turned out he was a bomb maker for the Taliban, and he was burying an IED that was to be detonated when a US patrol walked by 30 minutes later. It would have certainly killed and wounded several soldiers.
    The interesting fact of this story is the shot was measured at 725 yards. She shot him as he was bent over burying the bomb. The shot went through his Arse and into the bomb which detonated; he was blown to pieces. The Air Force made a motivational poster of her:
    (Folks, that's a shot 25 yards longer than seven football fields!)
    And the last thing that came out of his mouth ... was his ASS!
    If You Can Not Stand Behind Our Troops,
    please Feel Free To Stand In Front Of Them!

      Heres one of my heros.

      725 yards isn't bad, but here is something/someone not too many know about. Try 2500 yards with a moving target. http://www.grunt.com/scuttlebutt/cor...oshathcock.asp Another good read is the book "One Shot, One Kill", it goes into depth about Carlos Hathcock, and a few other great snipers.

          Hey Duane, I like the story. Accurate or not, its close enough for me to feel good about it.

          Been lots of lies told about me, but I ignore them because they make me out to be a real 'BAD AZZ'..............I'm cool with dat.
          Truth is, I'm a lesbien...........I only like women.

                AHHHH De-Wane

                You don't have to go through all that.... just one quick check with SNOOPS would do it (that's what I did when I got the email a few months ago so I wouldn't forward something and get the goofy comments from my friends)

                Great story, just a little slanted.... she is a good marksman/woman.... just didn't shoot the bad guy - someone else did.
                Thank a Police Officer for what they do........... OSF:
