Description
"Real-life accounts of the highly trained marksmen who have honed the art of killing to a fine edge -- and can turn the tides of war with one perfect shot. Elite snipers -- with their deadly aim, iron nerves, killer instincts and unwavering courage -- play a more critical role in modern military missions than ever before. Confirmed Kill accurately recounts the heroic actions of the world's deadliest snipers, from the one-on-one duel between a U.S. Marine sniper and his North Vietnamese counterpart that ended with a miracle shot straight through the Vietcong soldier's gun scope, to the shot fired from a mountain ridge in Afghanistan that dropped an unsuspecting Taliban fighter over a mile away. Confirmed Kill details the missions of the most legendary snipers: Chuck Mawhinney -- Marine with 103 Vietnam War confirmed kills Adelbert Waldron -- U.S. record holder with 109 confirmed kills Timothy Kellner -- Army sergeant with more than 100 confirmed kills in Operation Iraqi Freedom Craig Harrison -- British corporal with the world-record kill shot at 2,707 Yards"--,Provided by Freading.
