According to my uncle in the military, she doesn't know shite

He said if you're in the military, Hurt Locker is a comedy pretty much. Says it takes hours to defuse the bombs, there's no way a non-sniper could snipe like the black guy, etc etc

Well yes the hurt locker is laughable i know a couple EOD guys and they said its a joke, but the black guy could very much have the training to snipe for the fact he was security detail for an EOD tech and he was army intel prior. The part about the sniping scene that was a joke was the SAS guys getting picked apart and not even an attempt to try and call in CAS on a single house in a field. It would be cake to talk a pilot on to that target.
