Brit SAS sniper neutralizes 5 ISIS jihadis with 3 shots from 800 meters. Impressed?

A HERO SAS sniper has foiled a terror attack by killing three jihadis and two ISIS guards - using just three bullets...The sniper shot the first jihadi in the chest, detonating his explosive device and killing him instantly, along with two ISIS guards sat in a nearby car. The second terrorist was killed with a headshot, as he and the third man tried desperately to get back into the locked factory. The third jihadi also died when his explosive vest was set off by a third and final well-aimed shot from the colour sergeant.

He should be nominated for the equivalent of the Navy/Marine Corps or Army Achievement Medal... mostly for minimizing the financial impact of those sniper rounds!

Having served 3 yrs in London and 1 yr in Diego Garcia have nothing love and respect for my British Brothers in Arms. I suspect there is more than 1 or 2 Marines that would like to beat my Ass for the Assistance that I provided the Royal Marines in training US Marines in Riot Control Procedures and Rightfully So.

This is a proper example of maximizing efficiencies to minimize waste in today's era of fiscal difficulties. ;)

But really, the sniper's definitely top notch. That's the way to execute the mission.

I'm glad he's on our side.
Interesting that those ISIS muldoons were just walking about wearing suicide vests as casual wear. Perhaps that will fall out of fashion now.

It was drilled into us, one shot, one kill. This SAS sniper changes that to one shot, three kills! Well done SAS as he saved countless lives.

CPO Andy Carrillo, MS The SAS is superb! Years ago, a senior NCO was telling how he had been seconded to a British Army unit for a tour. The unit had deployed for a riotous situation in ????, our U S Army NCO of course had deviously managed to go w/ the unit to the riot. The riot was managed very easily; the unit's marksman simply put one round into the ringleader's skull. All other rioters vanished in a heartbeat!
