Sisco Posted July 1, 2019 Report Posted July 1, 2019 Much respect for our neighbors up north. You create the best snipers in the world. You gotta be doing something right!
RedRiverII Posted July 1, 2019 Report Posted July 1, 2019 Happy Birthday Canada. I do especially admire your film crews and your inability to turn your backs on Americans in trouble. Thank you.

98Z5V Posted July 2, 2019 Report Posted July 2, 2019 I love Canada, and the people. My sister-unit for a decade was 3 PPCLI. Those are some hard bastards - love 'em. We partied every year for a week with them, and the date revolved around 5 December 1944. Menton Day. Much respect...
Cunuckgaucho Posted July 2, 2019 Author Report Posted July 2, 2019 A real shame they disbanded The Devil's Brigade. Currently position 3&4 for longest sniper kill are held by two members of the PPCLI , Arron Perry of the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry exceeded it with a shot of 2,310 m (2,530 yd). Perry held the title for only a few days, as another man in his unit (Corporal Rob Furlong) beat Perry's distance with a 2,430 m (2,657 yd) shot in March 2002. Perry and Furlong were part of a six-man sniper team during 2002's Operation Anaconda, part of the War in Afghanistan
98Z5V Posted July 3, 2019 Report Posted July 3, 2019 ^^^ And those shots could only happen at higher elevations, such as AFG. Not even possible shots at sea level, or in the war zone surrounding Iraq. Those guys maximized the environmental conditions for the terrain they were deployed on - and God Bless Them for it.
