84-year old former Army sniper gets the Black Hat

This is very cool. He can still nail it. Headshots at 1000 yrds. He's honored by the Army Marksmanship Unit.

Very cool indeed!

I have a friend who was a USMC Sniper in WWII. Still loves to shoot.

WOW. Watch to the end. Awesome video put out by the AMU and awesome shooting by a Sniper, not a former Sniper, not a retired Sniper, but a Sniper.

I just watched SPR and Enemy at the Gates yesterday so this vid was the capper for 2 days of historic and present day great shooting skills.

1000m, 5" group, all headshots, with somebody else's weapon... Friggin awesome as hell.

At the beginning of this summer I helped out one of my mom's friends from work do some yard work (re-sod'ed their yard). She invited me in when she got off work to cool off and I stumbled upon their office at home (it was right by the kitchen). It was covered with her husbands stuff, he is a Ranger Sniper, I do not know the correct way to refer to him. But I started getting a "man boner" just reading through his certificates and other memorabilia and wondered how good of a shot someone like that really is; since I have never gotten a chance to experience it first hand. Ridiculous might explain it?

I just watched this video today and was about to post it then I searched and saw how old it is. Amazing none the less.

What a great video, WOW!! Congratulations, Ted on being honored with the "Black Hat", and you've proved you still have it. Thanks too for giving our end of the age scale a welcomed boost.

Mod hat on, I have no idea at all, what ^^^^^ has to do with Ted Gundy, his award, and his sniper ability. "Man boner" seems rather high school , but that's my $.02.
