United States Army Marksmanship Unit



The United States Army Marksmanship Unit (USAMU or AMU) is a part of U.S. Army providing small arms marksmanship training for soldiers and enhancing army recruiting. The unit was originally established in 1956〔(USAMU History )〕 at the direction of president Dwight D. Eisenhower to the mission of winning international competitions, which at the time was dominated by the Soviet Union. At the 1964 Summer Olympics, the United States won seven medals in shooting, of which six were won by Army Marksmanship Unit members; unit members have continued to win medals at subsequent competitions. A 2008 ''New York Times'' article notes that the unit has "a reputation as the country's premier training school for competitive shooters." The unit has also trained army snipers and assisted in the development of weaponry.〔Katie Thomas, ("Army Sharpshooters Have Olympic Medals in Their Sights" ), ''The New York Times'', July 10, 2008.〕
The today AMU consist of six competitive shooting sections:
* Action shooting
* ISSF rifle
* Service rifle
* Pistol (cross-functional team)
* Shotgun
* Paralympic
