They changed the doctrine of the Scout Sniper and made history for integrating Scout Snipers and Tanks having devastating effect on the battlefield! with 200-300 CONFIRMED kills as a platoon, likely having hundreds more unconfirmed they made history. They had a private lunch with the Commandant of the Marine Corps, as well as the Sgt Major of the Marine Corps, for their gallant actions on the battlefield.
