The Everyday Sniper Podcast: Knowledge Bomb, Let your Freebird Sing

Who knew Marc was such a Freebird Fan, but man, he put his hand in his pocket and bought a round of Freebird for the Lodge.

Coming off a 10-day trip to Alaska, the Marc and Frank Show is in full swing and we are marking Marksman.

I lost my voice so my side of the conversation is a bit weak, for that I apologize. When you play as hard as you work, you tend to burn the candle at both ends.

In this episode, we talk

• PR 1 In Alaska
• The Training Program
• Arctic Guardian Competitions
• AAR Lessons Learned

Thanks for listening, sharing, and being a part of the Everyday Sniper

That's great Mark is going to spend some time with those Army guys. Their curriculum suffers because most operations level leadership do not care to know how to use snipers until they're forced into a situation where a sniper is the answer. Mark will teach them something that will probably save their ass one day. Then they can pass it on.

Ya, it's their basic marksmanship that is the issue,

We understand they have a lot of other skills to master, as well as worrying about getting there and getting home...

They had called Marc to schedule a training session by Noon on Monday so it's moving forward

Now I am nervous as shit for class cause I am not that good! (but of course isn't that the point of taking a class!)

 

[Lowlight]

Not being good is what we are all about

When you leave you'll be a Marc Clone, sans Rolex

... but there's still time for him to get a Rolex. :-]]

All kidding aside I can't wait to get to the range with these Soldiers. They were great to hang out with at the Lodge. If they didn't have rifles to turn in before midnight they would not have left and Frank and I would have been in much worse shape than we were already in.

I'm going to spare them classroom time and get straight to the range. If I made them sit through a presentation, in 30 minutes the three in the front would be asleep and three in the very back would be jerking off to porn on Pornhub. I know what it's like to be a Marine in a classroom...

They will all fail the Initial Eval and we'll build from there just like Frank and I do in a regular course. The proven formula that we have will not change.

By the end of Day 2 I want them owning everything to 1,000 yards with dope from memory and killing clay pigeons at 1015.

LOOKING LIKE PROFESSIONALS.
