ADOPT A SNIPER PROGRAM
http://www.stripes.com/article.asp?section=104&article=21396&archive=true
In March 2004, a group of US police snipers formed a support network to address the needs of US military snipers deployed abroad in the war on terror.
The mission profile of police and military snipers have been found to overlap in the war on terror and the gear and supplies needed to accomplish the missions are very similar.
Unfortunately, many American snipers are having to spend their own money and have their families try and procure gear and get it to them in the middle of a war zone. This is due to the enormity of the US commitment in Iraq and Afghanistan and often times these servicemen go without things they need.
Being aware of this and using contacts developed throughout the US police and military communities, the police snipers were able to network with military snipers deployed abroad, obtain their overseas addresses and began sending desperately needed gear and supplies that are specifically tailored to the sniper mission, currently at the forefront of the war on terror.
The entire program is funded by civic donations and staffed by operational SWAT snipers. Every penny and all gear donated will go to a United States military sniper deployed abroad. Receipts for monies and gear will be sent upon request.
Anyone wishing to assist the program with monetary donations are encouraged to send donations to the address for Snipersonline found at www.adoptasniper.com. Gear and merchandise donations should be referred to the police detective below.
