Both sergeants are members of the 52nd Security Forces Squadron's emergency services team. עברית: תמונה של צלף והצופה שלו. צלפים תמיד נמצאים בזוגות, ויש חלוקה של תפקידים: הצופה מחשב לצלף את המטרה, המרחק, היסטים ועוד.. ככה, הצלף עסוק בכל מה שקשור לירייה עצמה ולמשתנים שבה- כדי שהייריה תהיה מדויקת. לכן הצופה חשוב כל כך. צופה הוא גם צלף, לשתיהם אותה הכשרה, שכן צופה חייב להכיר את עבודת הצלף כדי לתת לו את הנתנוים המתאימים בזמן הנכון. רובה רמינגטון 700 צבאי (M24), עם כוונת ליאופולד, ומשקפת מותאמת לצופה (יש עליה את אותו לו"ש שיש לצלף בכוונת) של ליאופולד.
context_page_description: Long range shooting is a relative term generally meaning accurate shooting at distances ordinary shooters with ordinary rifles could not hit. For example, Daniel Boone, using a flintlock rifle could probably hit a target at up to 100 yards. Today, expert marksmen are hitting targets well over 1 mile away. Modern long range shooting is more than just using modern machined actions and precision gun barrels. These produce a rifle that a decent shooter can hit targets at about 250 yards, ranges that were unheard of by black powder shooters.
