Oh Please!
Now that they think they have caught the D.C. sniper, we are beginning to hear loads of bullshit.
To begin with, CNN was making a big deal over the fact that the suspect shot Expert with the M-16 while in the army. So what? The '16 is an easy weapon to fire, and every soldier has ample opportunities to shoot the required 36 out of 40.
Secondly, I heard a talking head describe DOOM as a "sniping game." Right. Last time I looked, sniping does not involve automatic weapons and pulse cannons.

You guessed it: The Oregon Army National Guard. (No, he wasn't assigned to our battalion (http://www.guardian186.info).)
To paraphrase Full Metal Jacket, this shows "what one motivated Guardsman and his rifle can do!" ;-)
