Chris Kyle killed at shooting range

One of my buddies were telling me all about this. When he was in Afghanistan, there’d be people going through their garbage trying to find envelopes or letters with names and addresses on them. Lots of times they’d use scopes or spotting scopes to look into the base just to look at name tags and faces, then since everyone and their mother has Facebook or something, they’d search on Google. He also told me about soldiers having to go home because their wives or family called them because someone with a strong accent called them asking about the soldier and/or threatening them.

It’s a fucked up world we all live in, and this is one of the reasons soldiers get such a great respect from me.

Suicide killed more soldiers this year than insurgents did. 325 suicides among active and non-active Army alone, and 313 killed in combat throughout the entire military.
