I dont know if this story is true or not, but I certainly hope so! The below story is about a female military sniper that pops one of Alahs Taliban boys dead in the ***!

A story with a happy ending!


This nineteen-year-old ex-cheerleader (now an Air Force Security Forces Sniper) was watching a road that led to a NATO military base when she observed a man digging by the road. She engaged the target (i.e., she shot him). Turned out he was a bomb maker for the Taliban and he was burying an IED that was to be detonated when a US patrol walked by 30 minutes later. It would have certainly killed and wounded several soldiers.

The interesting fact of this story is the shot was measured at 725 yards. She shot him as he was bent over burying the bomb. The shot went through his butt and into the bomb which detonated; he was blown to pieces. The Air Force made a motivational poster of her:



(Folks, that's a shot 25 yards longer than seven football fields!)

And the last thing that came out of his mouth..was..his ***!

Allahu Akbar

 

tiny pic. got a larger one? good story either way.

 

She's a real sniper, but that's about where the truth ends. Someone just has a good imagination. Much like someone else we know.

I know not to whom you are refering to!

 

first of all ,thats a pearl earing not diamond; if they can't even get that- right my BS alarm starts to go off.
snipers can be a strange bunch.....
its a hard job to kill people, even when justified.

Nobrakes has got it! Snopes is a great tool!

She is secuity Forces(MP or police) and one of their best shooters but that does not make her a "Sniper"
