Chesty Puller - You have no weaknesses. You are intelligent, courageous, and a leader among leaders. You see opportunity in everything and a master at exploiting your enemy's weaknesses. You have been tried and tested and have proven you have no equal.

I was sure that I'd get the one Chesty Puller since he is a hero to me.
Instead I got this..




You are silent, deadly, and operate best when alone. You're the epitome of being calm and calculated while under pressure. Your patience and ability to strike at the most opportune times are your greatest strengths. You highly value your privacy. QUIZ: Which Marine Corps Legend Are You?

And in all modesty, it rings more true methinks. -Tyr

I'm a sniper too. Which makes sense since most of my jobs have been specialized and almost always worked alone without supervision.

Wish that was true. But I figured, since most here ignore me when I present the truth. It would be fun to become one of them, and just brag along for the hell of it. That's the benefit of getting older. I can now say things nobody wants to hear, and I know telling them the truth will do nothing. Vacuums abhor a Vacuum.

Hathcock was a legendary warrior and one of the greatest snipers in military history. Saved the lives of seven Marines in an act of extreme heroism in Vietnam.

All true.
I took the quiz but in no way do I rank myself with Hathcock in ability or any other factor. His name was the one the quiz gave me after completion as in being the most like. I myself , was hoping for Chesty Puller, but who knows how the determination was made?
Snipers like Hathcock and Kyle are one of a kind and that come along very rarely in life. They have skill sets at the very top.

Fun, but I suspect highly inaccurate.

Still: Carlos Hathcock

I had the honor of attending an outdoor class by GySgt Hathcock when I was a shiny new butter bar in late 1978/early 1979. Most of us didn't have a frickin' clue who he was except that he was a veteran Vietnam sniper. It wasn't until afterward that those who knew were able to fill the rest of us in on his history.

"Mr" is a LtJG on a boat. I'd be offended. One, for being called a zero, and two, for being called a butter-bar LT who didn't know his ass from a hole in the ground.

The Ol lady will agree with the deadly, not so much about the silent, she just doesn't understand how fun it is when I pull the covers over her head. :laugh::laugh: Yup she has no sense of humor. :laugh:
