Urban Sniper Training
Staff Sgt. Trey Broome a U.S. Force Reconnaissance Marine with 3D Force Reconnaissance Company, 4th Marine Division, Marine Forces Reserve, provides overwatch during a raid during urban sniper operations training in Panzer Kaserne in Stuttgart, Germany, July 19, 2024. Under the leadership of the highly skilled scout snipers from 3D Force Recon, the five-day sniper course was conducted, providing individual and team-level training on advanced precision marksmanship. The dynamic training introduced new challenges to the shooters, providing unique opportunities to create stability for a perfect shot from unfamiliar firing positions. The added pressure of competition, fatigue, and height and angle fluctuations provided practical, real-world training for the shooters, enhancing their sniper skills in urban environments through precision fire.
