HUGE mistake by our Corps leadership with that decision to eliminate the program/MOS. I’m also extremely disappointed with the current soft weak ass leadership (Commandant and SgtMaj) of our Corps.

A teacher of mine in high school would grow his beard out with his scout sniper buddy when he would go on deployment. That guy gave him his hogs tooth before he went on deployment and 2 weeks later he came in with no beard to break the news about his buddy. I always wondered what made him give the tooth up.

My first duty station in the early 90's was TBS, at the time we'd take Marines right around the corner to Weapons Training Bn where Sniper school was located. Carlos Hathcock would be there with the instructors & students giving advice to different classes periodically, I remember talking with him a few times. Even as a dumbass 18yr old you knew you were in the presence of a very wise, humble, matter of fact sort of man who had been through the ringer. Another enlistment down the road, I was permanent personnel at Mountain Warfare Training Center with some of the same grunts / snipers who were early students who had also benefited from his counsel & experience when we learned of his passing, if memory serves me, it was the late winter of 98 or right after the new year in 99'. AJ is spot on correct; this particular school is essential to preserving a perishable skillset required by the Marine Corps and should not be stove piped, bottle necked and tucked away hidden within only the MARSOC community. The change came a few years ago when the bean counters found it necessary to change the 8541 secondary MOS that had ran from the 1940's (aside from the earliest school in 1918 WWI then disbanded until WWII) until 2023 when the job field was redesignated to secondary MOS 0317, and absorbed into the primary MOS of "Recon Marine" 0322. It seems like what AJ is saying is that move sort of solidified its place in MARSOC, leaving the "General Purpose" force of infantry regiments without control or direct in-house access to that particular type of Marine as an asset and skillset within their respective battalions. At the end of the day, if our alleged leadership thinks we can afford to piss away billions of tax dollars on the chicken swingers foreign miliary, but not our own miliary (to which sniper school is a drop in the bucket money wise vs the American tax payer's bang for your buck) - then we clearly have the wrong leadership, and they need to be removed. *Full disclosure, I haven't had my daily serving of crayons yet today so take my understanding of it all with a grain of salt.
