A look at Navy SEAL snipers examines the exhaustive training that makes them world-class marksmen and their expertise in small-arms combat under every conceivable condition.

Navy SEAL reconnaissance training includes extreme stealth, camouflage tactics and cooperating on their own in hostile environments. Teams remain invisible while gathering Intel on the target, then strike with lethal force when the moment is right.

The Navy SEALs pursue America’s enemies all across the globe, hunting down the worst of the worst and bringing them to justice. Working together with U.S. intelligence agencies, as well as conventional forces and coalition allies, the SEALs are unmatched in their abilities to find, to fix and to finish the enemy.

Extreme training and combat expertise are only part of what make the SEALs the world's most effective fighting force. What truly sets them apart is their warrior ethos: a code of honor combining courage, discipline, and unhesitating willingness to risk life and limb to accomplish the mission or aid a fallen fellow soldier.

Whether it is one of their own, or a civilian caught in the chaos of war, combat rescue is one of the most important--and dangerous--roles at which the Navy SEALs excel.
