.Adopt a Sniper
Snipersonline UA and Sniper's Paradise have several members and Sniper friends actively engaged in the battle against terrorism. Our friends are only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the number of snipers deployed around the world right now. These snipers are deployed in the theaters of combat, both in Afghanistan and Iraq as well as other locations overseas. Many of these are full time law enforcement officers that have been activated for regular duty action.
Our memberships have chosen to help support our fellow snipers, and brothers in arms, by helping supply them with items that they need to get the job done better as well as things to make their lives easier while on deployment. This has been everything from the basic hygiene type items such as handy wipes to tactical products such as holsters, high speed rucksacks, new optics, rifle accessories, to mini binoculars and batteries.
Who are We?
We are active local, state, and federal police snipers as well as snipers from the various military branches.
We are a tight-knit group that believes strongly in supporting our brothers that are deployed to the front lines. In return for that support, they then pass on their gained knowledge upon their return.
We work hard and believe in our missions.
We train hard so that when the time comes, we can accomplish our missions to the fullest of our abilities.
We are snipers that need support in the form of advanced gear as well as "creature comfort" items to help us pass the time while we are away from our jobs and our families.
We are the ones putting our lives on the line to help keep this great country safe and free from terrorism. We are your sons, your brothers, your husbands, your fathers, as well as your friends.
We invite you to directly support the effort of those that are going in harms way on your behalf.

I am going to go look at that link now, but I wanted to address the women in combat thing, something I was thinking about but never said. The military wanted to exclude women from front line combat, and still does. note the "front" in front line combat. Iraq presents a serious problem with these idea, as it's a guerrilla war with not well defined front or back. In Iraq even the cooks can find themselves in a fire fight. The old rules are blurred beyond recognition and no one is exempt. Everyone and anyone can expect to find themselves in a close combat situation. the cook, a medic, a driver, the radio repair guy and even the receptionist should be trained in close hand to hand combat and be ready, armed and equipped to handle any situation that might come up.
Well you can see were the problem, is in this quote I copied
"But Congress is moving in the opposite direction. A House subcommittee, seeking to keep women out of combat, passed a measure this week that would bar women from thousands of Army positions now open to them. In Iraq, female soldiers immediately denounced the vote.
"I refuse to have my right as a soldier taken from me because of my gender," Guay wrote in an e-mail. "It is my right to defend my country. . . . I am well aware of the danger. . . . Let me (us) do our job.""
Lucky for us it's a problem we can easily fix.
