Book excerpt: This field manual (FM) provides doctrinal guidance on the mission, personnel, organization, equipment, training, skills, and employment of the Special Forces (SF) sniper. It describes those segments of sniping that are unique to SF soldiers and those portions of conventional sniping that are necessary to train indigenous forces. It is intended for use by commanders, staffs, instructors, and soldiers at training posts, United States (U.S.) Army schools, and units. FM 3-05.222 (formerly TC 31-32) addresses three distinct audiences: * Commanders. It provides specific guidance on the nature, role, candidate selection, organization, and employment of sniper personnel. * Trainers. It provides a reference for developing training programs. * *Snipers. It contains detailed information on the fundamental knowledge, skills, and employment methods of snipers throughout the entire operational continuum. The most common measurements that the sniper uses are expressed throughout the text and in many cases are U.S. standard terms rather than metric. Appendix A consists of conversion tables that may be used when mission requirements or environments change.
