I don't get a sniperish vibe off of you. I get that quiet confidence of special forces personal from you. The vibe of I've been to and through hell, and "No, I'm not going to tell you about it."

Nor do you have the "crazy" vibe my Uncle described to me. He was given the "light" duty of assisting a sniper. Slog through the jungle, wait at the bottom a tree, hear a single shot, slog back out of the jungle. Just being around this guy, drove my Uncle around the bend.

I have an eclectic background and met several different types of folks in my military career. One thing I learned was the difference between a real sepecial forces person and a wanna be. The real don't talk about it. They proudly where their wings/parachute/dolphins, but when asked what they did, they don't answer or they look you in the eye and say "No."

Hmmm, I seem to be rambling around, sorry.
