Where is Carlos “The White Feather” Hathcock when you need him?
“
Sadly, Carlos has been dead for some time.
Maybe it’s time to call Chuck Mawhinney (sp?) out of retirement.
(He’s the sniper that apparently had a higher body count than Hathcock
during Vietnam).
The History Channel special on snipers...when it’s on, I set everything
aside and watch it.
It had GREAT segments on Mawhinney, Hathcock and modern snipers in
Iraq and Afghanistan.

"I just re-read Marine Sniper a couple weeks ago....."
Great book. Just lent mine out to a nephew about a month ago to "educate" him. It's our duty because kids today won't be learning about "The Feather" in our public school system though they should. A true American Patriot.
