this list only contains Russian and german snipers. Their are supposedly 1 Canadian, and few british & north americans that need to be on the list, Their was a top 100 list before. Also note that these snipers have alot more then just their confirmed kill count, if you included the unconfirmed.

Yeah, I think WWII snipers usually did their duty without someone around to confirm their kills...as they often tended to work alone most of the time.

Except for Russia. They usually had full squads of sniper teams, working in 2-4's or something.

Snipers/sharpshooters are still quite common in even normal russian light infantry squads. Out of eight men, there would always be a couple guys armed with Dragunovs, which are supplemented by PKM's and the like.

The proper spelling is Simo Häyhä. Seeing as you dont have that letter on your keyboards, I forgive you.
