    Believe it or not, there’s a sniper rifle under that pile of sticks and grass. Members of the Peru special operations sniper team used nearby grass to conceal a rifle for the sniper stalk event of Fuerzas Comando 2014 at Fort Tolemaida, Colombia, July 26. Teams from 17 nations across the Western Hemisphere are competing from July 23-31, not just to determine a winner, but also to enhance their training and strengthen regional and multinational cooperation, mutual trust, readiness, and interoperability of special operations forces in the region. Special Operations Command South serves as the U.S. execution agent for the exercise. Fuerzas Comando was established in 2004 as an U.S. Southern Command-sponsored special operation skills competition and fellowship program.
