As previously stated, you need to practice moving around quietly, and also concealing your movements. Also, work hard in school. Learn as much matyh and science as you possibly can. There is a lot of math involved in sniping, and the science part will help you understand different environments, plus the way that the human body works. Stay out of trouble, and be respectful to others, and you will be just fine. Hit the military as soon as you graduate...

It also help (a lot) if you have good wood craft skills. If you are not already in, I suggest that you join a Boy Scout Troop that is active, and goes to the woods A LOT. If that is not available just spend as much time in the woods as you can, practice walking quietly, crawling quietly, sneaking up on animals and taking their pictures (DO NOT TOUCH THEM or get close enough to get hurt if they feel they are threatened), if you can get close enough to take a picture with a standard 35mm camera you are getting good. Get a bunch of friends together and play hide and watch. Someone will be at base (hunter) and the others (prey) hide where they can see the hunter. The object is to hide in such a manner that you can see the hunter but he cannot see you. If you are seen you become the hunter and the old hunter gets to hide.

Keep outa trouble, keep yer head down at school, go hunting and keep fit. this should put you in a good position for the army, then its up to lady luck if you get slotted as a sniper, its hard work but rewarding once your there.

Good luck
