Just because war is hell doesn’t mean you can’t have a little fun.

The Navy credits me with more kills as a sniper than any other American service member, past or present.

The rules are drawn up by lawyers who are trying to protect the admirals and generals from the politicians; they’re not written by people who are worried about the guys on the ground getting shot.

I'm trying to raise the awareness of the troops that, when they deploy and go to war, it's not just them at war - it's also their family. Their family is having to go through all the hardships and the stresses.

But real life doesn't travel in a perfect straight line; it doesn't necessarily have that 'all lived happily ever after' bit. You have to work on where you're going.

You have to slow your heart rate, stay calm. You have to shoot in between your heartbeats.

I would love for people to be able to think of me as a guy who stood up for what he believed in and helped make a difference for the vets.
