Odd thing about when I was in the service. Snipers were always looked down upon as the lowest of the low. Sneaky little buggers who never gave a person a chance. We never invited them to drink with us and we ate with them begrudgingly. Never wanted to piss them off but we never wanted to be over friendly with them either.

Seems ironic to me now, considering the fact I was in an artillery unit and we specialized in dropping huge shells on the other guys from a few miles away.
