Have NO idea as to how they are assigned & whether there are different levels of training/competency within the ranks. Yes, in any group you will always have those that are better than others. So, not sure how it works. Is it on a purely rotational basis or does the President always get assigned the best trainer & most expert. DO NOT KNOW.
But, hearing that a Secret Agent missed with three shots is not comforting.
Yes, it was dark & they would have been moving targets. But, aren’t sharp-shooters capable of doing better.
In my youth I did a LOT of target shooting. First with the British Cadet Corp. in school (i.e., ‘Mill Hill’) then with IBM’s subsidized gun club when I worked for IBM at Hursley. There was a time that I shot 100 rounds NIGHTLY — between writing code! I found it very therapeutic and inspiring. SMILE. I used to be fairly good. But, I never had to shoot at moving objects.
