Moby Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 On Monday Feb 11, 2013 at 1:00 pm at the Cowboys stadium there will be an honoring of the world’s most accomplished sniper. Chief Petty Officer Chris Kyle. US NAVY SEAL.No one knows just how many American lives were saved by Chief Chris Kyle. A sniper takes out targets often planting IED's which would kill soldiers passing by them. How many soldiers would have been killed is never a known quantity as the event was thwarted. Chief Kyle had more than 150 confirmed and logged kills the farthest being 1.5 miles. He was a member of http://www.thecraft.com/ an organization that trains LE and Military snipers.He started a nonprofit foundation that used donations to buy workout equipment to help returning war veterans cope and recover As all of you know by now one of those individuals took his life and the life of his friend Littlefield.For those so willing I encourage you to take off work and pay respects to a man that gave all to his fellow countrymen. This is a learning opportunity for my 13 year old daughter and I’m keeping her out of school to honor this American icon. A lesson I hope she remembers and passes on to her children.There are few like Chief Chris Kyle.RIP Chief Kyle. SALUTE!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

392heminut Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 My wife and I will be at Camp Pendleton with our son that day, but we will be sure and say a prayer for Chris, Chad Littlefield, and those they have left behind. :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 The magnitude of his heroism will be ignored, or unknown, by most self-absorbed Americans. What he has done for this country can never be measured, nor repayed to him. God Speed, Warrior - you are appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
