Level III Sniper Course is designed for those who lead and command snipers and who must make informed decisions in the field. The course deals with a sniper’s role within special operations, selecting and training sniper candidates, using snipers most effectively in a critical incident as well as in reconnaissance roles and overwatch details, and addresses policy, practice and operational concepts. The course culminates in a live-fire shooting event where snipers, team leaders and commanders shoot together in a live-fire demonstration. Snipers attending the course may bring their issued weapon system and participate in live-fire demonstrations and sample training and qualification drills. Team Leaders & Commanders are encouraged to participate in the live fire event.
