Sniper is an Army and Marine MOS. It is not related to rank or paygrade.
I know a good sniper film. It's not from the military but it is a great movie. It's called "The Sniper".
Not necessarily. If you wish to become a military sniper, you'll have to be in the military already, of course. If you want to be a sniper in something outside the military, such as law enforcement or some backwoods militia, then no.
Cutoff age is 42 for the Army. Even as a trained sniper/sharpshooter, you have to consider that what you were trained for (I'm assuming law enforcement) is significantly different or more oriented on one aspect of it than military sniper training is.
http://science.howstuffworks.com/sniper.htm This website tells you how military snipers work :) I'm no sniper myself, but I have been to the army. All soldiers go through Basic Millitary Training (for my country) before being posted to a vocation (such as sniper). In which they will receive further more specialised training.

while in the army, Sniper == ==
A true military sniper (not a law enforcement sniper) is a hunter. Reference US Army doctrine TC date 27 October 1969. All snipers are marksmen, but not all marksmen are snipers. True military snipers travel light (no heavy specially constructed sniper rifles; a true sniper can kill with any rifle/it's the man behind the gun NOT THE WEAPON). Life span of a true US war time sniper, indefinite.
It is a sniper term that means "dead target." Tango is the military alphabet for the letter "T."
you go to cadets training until you reach sniper badge and then you will be successful enough to fight in war as a sniper man. Enlist in the Army, choose infantry as your MOS. Go to basic training, AIT, qualify as an expert on the rifle range and then you can apply to sniper school. Get accepted to sniper school, successfully pass the school and then you may be entitled to a sniper slot. Not everyone who goes to sniper school will function as a sniper in their unit.
You can aquire your US Military service record, including health record, through the National Archives.
