Summary

In this episode, we welcome Jim Lindsay to the show. He is the author of The Sniper: The Untold Story of the Marine Corps’ Greatest Marksman of All Time, which is a biography of United States Marine Corps Sniper Chuck Mawhinney. Chuck served in Vietnam at age 18 and came away with the most Confirmed Kills in USMC sniper history. He had 103 Confirmed Kills with 216 Probable Kills in just 16 months of active duty as a Marine. In this interview, we discuss how Jim and Chuck met, why Chuck chose Jim to do his first and only biography, why no one in Chuck’s life even knew he served in Vietnam until much later in his life, what drew Chuck to the military, why he decided to be a sniper, the story of Chuck’s first kill, the mission where Chuck killed 16 Vietcong soldiers with 16 headshots in under 30 seconds, what Chuck is doing today, and much more. Let’s get into it… Episode notes and links HERE. Donate to support our mission of equipping men to push back darkness. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
