Description: the United States Army, major branch of the United States armed forces charged with the preservation of peace and security and the defense of the country. The army furnishes most of the ground forces in the U.S. military organization.The Army motto, “This We'll Defend,” can be seen in the Army flag and emblem on the scroll above the snake. Today, the motto can be found on the official U.S. Army flag as well as the Department of the Army emblemA marksman is a person who is skilled in precision shooting[1] using projectile weapons (in modern days most commonly an accurized scoped long gun such as designated marksman rifle or a sniper rifle) to shoot at high-value targets at longer-than-usual ranges. The proficiency in precision shooting is known as a shooter's marksmanship, which can be used to describe both gunnery and archery.In popular and historical usage, "sharpshooter" and "marksman" are considered synonyms.[2][3] Within the shooting sports and military usages today, however, sharpshooter and marksman refer to distinctly different levels of skill, which are never conflated. Specifically, in the US Army, "marksman" is a rating below "sharpshooter" and "expert".[1] Four levels of skill are generally recognized today in American military and civilian shooting circles: unqualified, marksman, sharpshooter, and expert. Marksmanship badges for the three qualified levels are commonly awarded to both civilian and military shooters who attain proficiency in shooting higher than "unqualified". The main difference between military marksmen and snipers is that marksmen are usually considered an organic part of a fireteam of soldiers and are never expected to operate independently away from the main force, whereas snipers are special ops troops who usually work alone or in very small teams with independent mission objectives. Snipers are also often tasked with responsibilities other than delivering long-range fire — specifically, conducting reconnaissance, battle damage assessment and spotting for coordinates/corrections for artillery fire or air strikes. Within the military, marksmen are sometimes attached to an infantry fireteam or squad (where they are known as designated marksmen) where they support the squad by providing accurate long-range shots at valuable targets as needed, thus extending the effective tactical reach of the fireteam or squad.Originally Answered: What does the army do when they not at war? You train for the war. Sometimes you go to rescue mission or military exercise in other countries. In the barracks there is always the boring jobs to do: guard duty, cleaning and maintenance of the gear and everything elseFREE SHIPPING IN THE UNITED STATES ONLY!!!!!!EDUCATIONAL MILITARY BOOK LOTTWO PIECE HARD TO FIND MILITARY BOOK LOTBOTH ITEMS ARE STAINED WITH THE NAME TITUS WRITTEN ON ITWHAT YOU WILL RECEIVE:SMALL ARMS INTEGRATION BOOKPUBLISHED MARCH 2002ALL SORTS OF ADDED INFO ABOUT GUNS AMMO WEAPONS ETC......HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT OF THE US ARMYFIELD MANUAL NO. 23-9FM 23-9DEPARTMENT OF THE US ARMYWASHINGTON DC JULY 1989M16A1 AND M16A2RIFLE MARKSMANSHIPJULY 1989 WEAPONS TARGETS HISTORY OF GUNS ETC.....
