    Sergeant Emmanuel Velayo is a scout sniper serving with 1st Battalion, 4th Marine Regiment. Velayo, a 24 year-old native of Anchorage, Alaska. Velayo said he enjoys using his ghillie suit to blend in with his environment. The suit is made from torn burlap material sewn into his camouflage utilities. Velayo, who is also a fisherman, said observing fish is similar to observing humans because fish go to the same spots just like humans go to the same places.
