On February 2, 2013, Kyle and his friend, Chad Littlefield, 35, were shot and killed by Eddie Ray Routh at the Rough Creek Ranch-Lodge-Resort shooting range in Erath County, Texas. Both Kyle and Littlefield were armed with .45-caliber 1911-style pistols when they were killed, but neither gun had been unholstered or fired, and the safety catches were still on. Kyle was killed with a .45-caliber pistol, while Littlefield was shot with a 9 mm SIG Sauer pistol. Both guns belonged to Kyle. Routh was a 25-year-old U.S. Marine Corps veteran from Lancaster, Texas. Kyle and Littlefield had reportedly taken Routh to the gun range in an effort to help him with his posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

10:28 snipers get that if they’re in a prone position too long that’s how chris knew he was an insurgent
you have to watch "Black hawk down". Ellie prepare to cry :(
The other SEAL with the sniper rifle when they attacked the Restaurant actually served with Chris.
I've been to that gun range numerous times and stood on the I20 bridge that morning when we all celebrated Chris' life. He was just a guy that was, simply put, great at everything

Hacksaw ridge is a great film, very deep
My platoon Sgt did 7 tours. Most at least 12 months. Some 18 months. He spent over 8 years at war. Several of the people in my office knew Chris. The guy that owns our building was one of his best friends. The movie took several liberties. One of which was the circumstances of the day of his death. Chris was actually in a fight with his wife and sleeping on his (my office owners) couch when he was picked up by the man that would kill him. He was not at home with his wife. Chris's rifle company "Craft" was located in our office and the logo still hangs on one of our walls. I know Chris's brother, Jeff. Great guy. He was Marine Force Recon. They portrayed him kind of negatively in this movie. The people I know that knew Chris don't particularly like this movie and they like his wife, Taya, even less. Just some inside info for you guys.
You guys should watch the Funeral procession compilations. Its amazing to see the support that man has/had.
Originally the movie has the part where Chris takes the guy to the range to help the veterans with ptsd and he gets killed but Chris' widowed asked for that part to be taken out so their kids could watch it and so that is why they have the abrupt ending and then it goes to actual footage of the funeral procession.
There's a great podcast with Chris Kyle's wife on the Valuetainment youtube channel, if anyone is interested. She's a very well spoken and interesting person, it's a great podcast.
Just an FYI, the scene at the end of the cars and the people alongside the road and on the overpasses, that was actual footage ... and it continued all the way down to highway until they got to their destination. This was in Texas 🤠
*Edited:* Lt. Col Dave Grossman's books "On Killing" and "On Combat" are fantastic books and detail alot of the reasons soldiers suffer from PTSD and number of stories of the experiences that cause it. 😭😭😭 If your struggling, help is out there. PLEASE reach out to someone! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 American Sniper, 13 Hours, Blackhawk Down, and Hurt Locker ... pretty much the definitive millitary life experience with having to sign up. 💔😭😭😭
I live in the Dallas area and remember driving on that highway and seeing all those people and banners and flags. If any part of this movie gets me, it's that end procession because I saw it when it happened.
If you haven’t seen it, I’d recommend 13 Hours & Zero Dark Thirty.

Fun Fact: The Average SEAL had 7-10 Tridents on their casket usually put there by the ones closest to them usually their Teammates and other seals. Chris Kyle had 160 Tridents on his casket, more than any other SEAL a true testament to his character and the amount of lives he impacted.
The footage at the end was part of his actual funeral procession I was part of the crowd that day on I-35

As a Texan, this story hits. Folks lined up when he was killed, for his procession.
Hey Homies. Dude from Vermont here. Really like your channel and the expanded Homie-verse. My suggestion/recommendation is "River's Edge" (With apologies to Ellie).
One of the few film that i actually likex... Really showed what war Is and Its side effects
The footage at the end was actual footage of his 200 mile funeral procession
His funeral was held here in Arlington Texas.
Such a tragic tragic true story, thesot deadly sniper in US history and he corrected his life and come home ajd did good and a veteran with PTSD killed him.!RIP Chris Kyle! May eagles protect you beyond! My dad lost his leg in Vietnam and he’s still fighting it today but like a chris a true patriot! His titania :carbon leg is hydro wrapped in the American flag . We lost my mom November 3rd to brain cancer and my sad still pushes on. Love and miss her!
Excellent reaction! I can’t get enough of your accents. So awesome! Cheers!
I watched this movie at the theaters and at the end everyone walked out in silence.
Kris Kyle was the deadliest sniper in USA history, making a shot over 1 mile in distance. RIP MR KYLE.

As your most recent post I'll put this here. This will be a perfect movie to see at this time. If you love Romance, I believe you will fall in love with this movie. It is visually magnificient and had several great actors in it. This is "A Walk In The Clouds" Starring Keanu Reeves, Anthony Quiinn, Aitana Sanchez-Gijon and Giancarlo Giannini. It set just after WWII with Keanu a returning soldier and our two lovers are irresistably drawn to each other though they are both bound by other problems. I'll say no more than that. Watch it and be captivated.
Chris Kyle is from my area Midland/Odessa Tx they have a monument of him and a higway named after him
This is only one of MANY reasons you don't make phone calls while on op. You save that shit for base.
the sentiment that, he was not upset about the people he had killed but rather the guys he lost, is what I have heard from all the guys who have been in combat.
I cry at the end of this movie every time.
This movie was almost done filming when Chris Kyle was killed. The end footage of the funeral procession is the actual thing
Cooper is using a strong southern accent in this. International viewers might not catch that. Great acting.
This was not the intended ending of this movie Chris was still alive during filming and was murdered which changed the ending

Please watch a documentary called the conscientious objector true story about Desmond Doss. It is about an army Medic in World War II which there is another movie called hacksaw Ridge which is about Desmond Doss however they left out a lot of details and hollywoodized a lot of other details.

@Peacefield So... you would rather them react and watch movies about what we did in response to 9/11? One of the tragedies that brought many of us together even though it broke our hearts? You would rather have them react to a kid getting his head drilled. Kids qnd women getting sniped but not one of the stories where the passengers made the sacrifice to retake the plane and prevent it from reaching it's target? You would rather them react to what we fought for instead of a film where first responders and emergency services went in when we got out? Note that I recommended those films only if they were up for watching them. Think about it. Someone filmed and directed those films because it happened and they wanted to tell us a story that none of us had the courage to bring up to the public. Just like Clint Eastwood did American Sniper... to tell this story. I recommended those films because we shouldn't forget the things we did in the darkest hours.
