    The video has absolutely nothing to do with the narration. I can't even identify those uniforms.

      @@HistoricalCombatHQ No; you got it wrong. Matthäus Hetzenauer (December 23, 1924 in Tyrol, Austria - October 3, 2004) was a German sniper in the 3rd Mountain Division on the Eastern Front of the World War II, who was credited with 345 kills. His longest confirmed kill was reported at 1100 metres.
      Hetzenauer trained as a sniper from March 27 through July 16, 1944, before being assigned to the 3rd Gebirgsjäger Division, issued both a K98 rifle with 6x scope and a Gewehr 43 rifle with 4x scope.
      1100 meters is 1202 yards; making this fall short by AT LEAST 100 yards if you are sticking to the "over 1000 yards"
      This is what he meant by facts. Actual facts. This guy has a wiki page with cited references and your guy doesn't.. And even if he did it fell short.. I'd make a new one about Mr. Hetzenauer :) and rename this one longest apocryphal american sniper kill during ww2 xD
