The one thing I do not understand is the reluctance on the part of our military leaders and soldiers in the field to accept snipers as an effective weapon in the field. William Sherman would have extolled their use and used them effectively. The whole idea of war as an exercise in gracious living is silly and outmoded. It always has been. Our best warriors (Patton, von Richtofen, Puller, Rommel) all knew that. Kill the enemy and go home. This book highlights some of our most effective deterants to maintaining wars that takes our finest young men.
