    A member a Sniper Team fires at targets during the United States Army Special Operations Command 2015 International Sniper Competition, March 22-27 Twenty-four teams, including four foreign teams, competed for one year of bragging rights to say they are the best in their business. Each team is comprised of one shooter and a spotter. Each team faced 19 challenging day and night events, which were derived from real world experiences, pitting snipers against time, distance and unknown circumstances. Sniper teams faced tactical challenges while moving through urban environments, all the while engaging targets as close as 25-meters and as far as 1,000 meters. The challenges test team members' ability to communicate with each other and shoot accurately while racing to beat the clock. (U.S. Army photo by Staff Sgt. Robert Burley, USAJFKSWCS)
