The real Miss America

There's a Proud Papa out there somewhere.

This 19 year old ex-cheerleader now an Air Force Security Forces Sniper,was watching a road in Pakistan that led to a NATO military base when she observed a man digging by the road
She engaged the target (she shot him). It turned out he was a bomb maker for the Taliban, and he was burying an IED that was to be detonated when a U.S. patrol walked by 30 minutes later. It would have certainly killed and wounded several soldiers.
The interesting fact of this story is the shot was measured at 725 yards.
She shot him as he was bent over burying the bomb. The shot went through his rectum and into the bomb which detonated; he was blown to pieces.
The Air Force made a motivational poster of her.
(Folks, that's a shot 25 yards longer than seven football fields) and the last thing that came out of his mouth ... was his ass!
If You Can Not Stand Behind Our Troops, please Feel Free To Stand In Front Of Them!!!!!

Us girl's are awesome but you already know that,lol

You go girl!

Absolutely awesome!!!!!

thats 662.94 meters.
good shooting!

Cannot is one word, not two.

The motivational poster and story are fiction but Senior Airman Polly-Jan Bobseine is the real deal. She was one of 12 chosen out of 270,000 Airmen for Airman of the year among other awards. She is currently in the sniper training program and the photo of her behind the M24 was taken during weapons training.

It's a cool story but yeah? I was wondering how they knew the bullet went through his rectum then into the bomb... you cleared it up thanks.

I'm not getting the funny here so moved to the lounge.
