Combat veteran and author Hans Halberstadt takes readers deeper inside the elusive world of snipers than ever before, from recruitment and training to the brutality of the killing fields.
Shadow Team is just about the most productive sniper team in American military history, accounting for 276 validated kills in a half a year span without casualties of their own. Their leader made what was, and may be, the longest range kill with a 7.62mm rifle. For the very first time ever they clarify what it's like to kill a guy and what it takes to become one of the elite.
The tragic tale of Headhunter Two is altogether different. This four man sniper team from a regiment known within the Corps as the Magnificent Bastards was killed in 2004 in Ramadi, Iraq. Their deaths not only caused a reevaluation of sniper strategies and techniques, but created a desire to have vengeance that was exacted nearly 2 yrs later in dramatic fashion.
Based on hundreds of hours of exclusive interviews, Halberstadt gets inside the sniper brain and shows how they think and interact with one another, how missions are planned and executed, how the weapons work, and even what goes on when a bullet finally strikes its target. There are just a few hundred snipers from all the assistance put together in combat at any one time, causeing this to be true inside story a rare and important event.
Both a uniquely intimate look at what makes a sniper tick and a harrowing read filled up with dramatic battle tales, Trigger Men is a book about killers and killing, without apology and without remorse.
