Why is the US and Russian army squad designated marksman left out? If one would mention US Marines and IDF, it is only natural that other military organizations be included. Cheng-chuan, Chin

I edited the article to fix the grammar/spelling in the IDF section. Also tried to make things more NPOV by removing references to "terrorists", which is a loaded term.

[edit] doctrine

"Soviet doctrine uses the Dragunov rifle in this way." The soviet union ceased to exist 15 years ago. Should it read "Soviet doctrine used the Dragunov rifle in this way." or "Russian doctrine uses the Dragunov rifle in this way."? Gurkha 20:55, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
