Scout Sniper (MOS 0317, formerly 8541) is a specialist in the United States Marine Corps whose mission is to deny the enemy freedom of movement by killing enemy leaders, crew-served weapons operators, radiomen, observers, messengers, and other key personnel with single, well-aimed shots. In addition, scout snipers also provide close reconnaissance and surveillance to the infantry battalion.

The most important thing about stalking is to be able to blend in with your surroundings. "Anybody can hide; blending is what makes snipers different." said Sgt. Michael A. McClay, chief instructor, Scout Sniper Basic Course.
