In this second and final installment of “Inside the Marine Corps' New Recon Sniper Course,” we trace the proud history of Marine Scout Snipers from their humble beginnings in World War II to the jungles of Vietnam, where the elite culture, training, and operations that modern Scout Snipers are known for were forged in fire and carried forward by legendary Marine Scout Sniper Carlos Hathcock and other extraordinary leaders.
And as we follow 10 students through the final phases of the first-ever Reconnaissance Sniper Course, we compare Scout Sniper training with the Recon community’s new nine-week course, hear from the instructors and architects of the new course, and get a picture of the road ahead as Marines from the Reconnaissance Training Company seek to build “the best sniper program that there is.”
