A sad day


Feb 3, 2013, 11:13 AM

Former SEAL and highly decorated war veteran Chris Kyle was killed by a man yesterday. He is the most decorated sniper in US history. Details are few right now but what is known is a guy opened fire on him and a friend and killed both of them. It was said that he was there trying to help a guy that suffered from PTSD. Say a prayer for his family. What an awesome guy and warrior.

Pretty shocking and unfortunate, he was also a family man.

did he overtake hancock (aka whitefeather) from vietnam?


Feb 3, 2013, 12:20 PM

i know the nva actually had a bounty on hancock. i hate to hear about kyle's death esp. the way it happened. as most of t-net knows i am very pro-military, i was born and raised that way,what can i say!.

It was Hathcock.

Yes he did overtake his official kill count. Carlos Hathcock was 93 and Kyle had over 150. Those were official counts. The real counts on both were a lot higher. In one of Hathcock's stories him and another guy kept an entire DIVISION pinned down for 3 days. His unofficial for those 3 days was over 300. But just like todays internet..........pics or it didn't happen.
