Chris was a great guy and it was a pleasure to know him!  I spent some time with Chris last July as his wife is from my town in Oregon.  We had some drinks together and went shooting the following day.  Chris was donating 100% of the profits from his book American Sniper to two fallen team members families, and this was coming from a guy that did not even do his twenty in the teams.

I have read a lot of hateful crap on line about Chirs that is NOT warranted as these people did not know him.  He was a great guy, father and warrior and a strong Christian.
