The fifth of a weekly series of videos following the RAF Regiment on the frontline in Basra -- Snipers in Action. See the snipers of II Squadron fly into action -- literally. To prevent the enemy from planting deadly IEDs (Improvised Explosive Devices) around the base, snipers must take to the air to investigate. It takes more than a steady hand to shoot accurately from a moving aircraft -- that's why they're known as the best of the best. www.rafcareers.com/frontline

Jul 23, 2008 - I didn't know the Brits gave aerial sniper coverage for the Americans. It boggles my mind thinking about how huge of a communications net this war in Iraq must have between all of the nations involved. Does anyone know if the Americans and British use the same frequencies for the radios on the ground and in the air?

Jul 28, 2008 - Do you apply to be a sniper or do they have to choose you?
stuartatc Says:
Jul 28, 2008 - They choose you. You will need to join as a gunner in raf reg and be amazing and marksmanship skills.
stuartatc Says:
Jul 28, 2008 - agreed
MajorGayer Says:
Jul 28, 2008 - Do you know how early in your career you can be selected?
stuartatc Says:
Jul 29, 2008 - No i dont because i am not a regiment officer but i would advise you to go and speak to your local armed forces careers office (afco) for more information! Good Luck

Jul 30, 2008 - you show an interest, then if your a switched on trooper, you maybe asked to attend a Card'e, a kind of mini sniper course to see if you have what it takes on your own sqn, then off you go to do the real one if your good enough.
