Ever wonder how a United States Army Sniper creates his Ghillie suit? Well, I can tell you one thing, it's not purchased from Amazon. You think the Army issues these suits? Negative ghost-rider. It's more of an intense process than you would think. Not only physically, but mentally.

To be an effective Sniper on the battlefield, a soldiers most essential two items are both his rifle and a well-constructed ghillie suit. Throughout this video, U.S. Army Sniper cadre provide insight on the intense training endured during the five-week Sniper School.

During week two of the Sniper Course, soldiers participate in an event known as a 'ghillie wash', which is designed to test the suits’ durability as well as to weather and add natural color to the suits. Soldiers' ghillie suits are put to the test during stalk events, where they cover themselves in natural vegetation and must stealthily move through wooded terrain without being spotted by instructors.
