Snipers weren't always the top soldiers they had to earn their respect in the military. Find out how in this episode of Task & Purpose! Today we follow the evolution of military snipers throughout history. They went from simply being viewed as expert marksman to adding more and more skills to their teams.

The US Army didn't even open a sniper school until the 1980s. Today they're also famous for their reconnaissance work as well. In this video we're going to track the progression of snipers from crossbows to the future infantry computer assisted rifles.
