Lance Cpl. Samuel Richardson, a rifleman serving with 1st Battalion, 4th Marine Regiment, and a native of Roseburg, Ore., analyzes a map of Camp Pendleton, Calif., to find land navigation points during a scout sniper screener here, Dec. 9, 2013. Marines serving with the battalion volunteered to take the screener to have a chance of becoming part of the scout sniper platoon. Upon passing the screener, Marines are selected to become a part of the platoon and are sent to Scout Sniper Basic Course once their command is confident they’re ready. The screener consists of various activities including fitness tests, academic tests and land navigation over a period of four days with a couple hours rest in between days.
