Gee my first post and I get to talk about my favorite Sniper. Lyudmila Pavlichenko.
309 Kills and has been actually credited with 325 before she was removed from the front lines because she was wounded in action.
And yes I said SHE. The Russians considered her such a National Treasure she was not returned back to action for fear she would be killed.
She toured here in the U.S. as a special guest of Pres. and Mrs. Roosevelt and was also presented with a special Presentation Model 70 from Winchester and it still sets in the War Museum in Moscow.
One heck of a lady, and nice to look at also.
Best wishes, Bill
