    Ted Gundy, US Army Sniper, At 85

    I looked at the forums and really couldn't find something that fits. This ain't off-topic but it ain't on either but a guy 85 years old that can.....well, read the story.

    If there is nothing in your life worth dying for than you are already dead.

    It has been posted here at least three times, but it is a great story, and everyone
    should see it.

    Sorry about that. I checked the search engine before I linked and didn't get a hit, but sure enough, there's another post from the day before when I ran it again.

    I'd blame it on a bad sight picture but I had my bifocals on at the time

    Exceptional....... 3 head shots in a row at 1000 yds with a 308 !! Takes a true "shooter" as well as fine equipment to do that. Do it once, could be luck. Doing it three times in a row has nothing to do with luck. He certainly had not lost his rifle handling skills during all those years. My hat's off to him.
