    A U.S. Army soldier in OCP (Operational Camouflage Pattern) uniform is kneeling at an outdoor shooting range, handling a scoped precision rifle. The soldier wears an American flag patch, an 'AIRBORNE' tab, and what appears to be a 25th Infantry Division patch on the left sleeve, along with electronic hearing protection. The setting appears to be a cold-weather environment consistent with Alaska, based on the terrain and vegetation.

Leadership at Forward Operating Base Gardez, Afghanistan, hand-picked Dominguez to represent the U.S. in the 10th Annual Czech Republic World Sniper Competition April 23 through 27. Stress shooting drills incorporate physical training to increase heart rate and breathing and make holding steady difficult during shooting, simulating a stressed environment.
