Killers high in job satisfacti­on

-

LETHAL snipers are the HAPPIEST soldiers, according to research.

The long-range hot shots are less likely to suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder or depression, boffins say.

And not only are they less likely to have bad dreams about killin, snipers actually scored higher on tests for job satisfacti­on.

Ex-gunman Chris Kyle, who spent six years in Iraq for the US Army and says he took out 255 targets, said: “Every person I killed I strongly believed they were bad.”

Peter Bradley, from the Royal Military College in Canada where the tests are being carried out, said: “Snipers are sensible people, they’re healthy, and they take good care of themselves.

“They have a realistic outlook on life and seem very resilient withstandi­ng the rigours of combat.”
