Hi u guys.. haha i'm kinda amused watching u coo and ponder over snipers.. i'm actually from siw. The School of Infantry Weapons, and i come under SSC, the SAF (ARMY) Shooting Contingent. after almost a year of service in ssc, i've seen plenty of snipers come and go and i must say the come in different sizes and shapes. snipers as some of u guys know are not superhuman or people with powerful bladders. they could be the brudder sitting next to u in the cinema eating your popcorn..
the training is not as shiong as people imagine. true it takes endurance and all and carrying an alice pack is no joker. but if u think sniper training is shiong, wait till u try ranger course or any of the naval diving unit/commando cses....
tooxtreme, if u want to be a sniper with the SAF, its not as simple as saying you want to be one. i would advise u to signal your intention early by letting your platoon commander in bmtc know about it.. thats about all that u can do if u want to be a sniper. after that u could be posted to sispec or ocs for command training. if you go to ocs u can almost kiss it goodbye.. it really depends on which unit u go to and whether that requires snipers. i can tell u your best bet is to join the guardsmen....dun think i can reveal the reason why but thats it.. and if u really really wanna make being a sniper as your profession. i suggest u sign on with a combat unit and keep declaring that u want to be a sniper to every single officer in charge of u until u get it.. lol -
Yes there are snipers in the army. Are you really sure you want to be a sniper in the army? For one, being a sniper isn't a glamorous thing or as easy as shooting an awp in counter-strike. You lose your identity, your only friend is your rifle. your vocation would be a secret to everybody.Originally posted by tooxtreme86:in army.. are there snipers? i really wan to be a sniper when i'm in army.. are there any requirement for snipers???
As for requirements, eagle eyesight and the ability to survive in the field for at least 3 days for a normal sniper and 10 days for an sof sniper.
