Was snipers used in the Civil War?
Yes, but unlike the Vietnam War, snipers in the Civil War were often referred to as Sharpshooters.
In World War 2 and Vietnam why did snipers tie themselves to trees?
either they were forced to stay in that tree til the death or they did it for the lulz
Who lived in Vietnam during the Vietnam war?
Q who was the victor of the Vietnam war? A I have no idea who won the Vietnam war!!!!
Were there women snipers in the Vietnam war?
Hollywood sensationalism. Example: Hollywood director Stanley Kubrick filmed "Full Metal Jacket" with a female enemy sniper in it (the NVA used females as auxiliaries, the same as the US/allies did during the 20th century) & the pessimism filled film "Paths of Glory" starring Kirk Douglas (father of actor Michael Douglas). Kubrick nearly sci-fied war films with a touch of pessimistic imagination. Say it enough times and people believe it. Soviet (Russian) snipers killed many German military men during WWII. But they were not officially used by the Americans, German, Japanese, British, or Australians during that war. Nor the Korean or Vietnam Wars. Officially meaning uniformed/assigned military snipers.
Was the Vietnam war in Pennsylvania?
