Eric went through Scout Sniper School three times. The first time, he didn't make it through known distance. The second time, he qualified stalking, made it through unknown distance, then broke his ankle on the last day running down tower stairs. Medical drop. He came back and finished.
Seven years in the Marine Corps, five in the sniper platoon, working his way up to Team Leader. He's a graduate of Scout Sniper Basic Course, Mountain Sniper, Urban Sniper, Aerial Sniper, and Joint Forward Observer School. He also completed the Precision Weapons Course.
Eric and Corey came up together in First Battalion Fifth Marines. They're best friends, and that chemistry shows on the range. Eric currently works as an independent contractor in the security industry with four years of overseas deployment experience.
When he's stateside, you'll find him shooting, hunting, or somewhere in the outdoors. He stays sharp through competition and training with Mark Sule at Spartan Rifles.
