An elite unit of snipers went from standouts to outcasts -- victims, many say, of a witch hunt driven by jealousy and fear

I'm sure there is a top drawer drug cartel that would be happy to hire them.

<font color=8fbc8f>Thanks for the update. It has been awhile since it was in the news.

Any idea why the author severly over exagerated about the rifle, and more so the projectile?

".50-calibre shell -- rocket-shaped, almost as long as a beer bottle -- slicing through the Afghan sky".

Shell? Like from the beach? Rocket shaped? Like any other conical shaped bullet? Beer bottle long? Do you guys drink beer from a shot glass sized bottle?

The author makes this more unjust than the 'lame' investigation itself!

Prepping the populace?</font>
