Sniper (Brit) celebrates with cigar after killing Taliban officer
A ROYAL Marine sniper from Edinburgh has described marking his first kill with a cigar after "slotting" a Taliban commander from more than 1000 metres.
"He was just standing there. It was beautiful. He was only exposed a few seconds......"He was hit full in the upper chest. It took him a couple of seconds to drop but I knew he was slotted [dead]......"It was my first kill. I had a cigar afterwards.
That's gotta be worth at least a bottle of scotch, you get a cigar just for making them soil their pants.
I didn't lose any sleep about it. He was a Taliban commander after all."
Worms, meet TaliMan. TaliMan, meet worms.
