Every person I killed I strongly believe that they were bad. When I do go face God there is going to be lots of things I will have to account for but killing any of those people is not one of them.

CHRIS KYLEI’m willing to meet my creator and answer every shot that I took.
CHRIS KYLEI’m just trying to get back to normal life.
CHRIS KYLEOther people are talking about writing books about my life, or about some of the things I’ve done. I find it strange, but I also feel it’s my life and my story, and I guess I better be the one to get it on paper the way it actually happened.
CHRIS KYLEThere’s no reason someone who has fought for their country should be homeless or jobless.
CHRIS KYLEOne was to be a cowboy and another was to be in the military. I grew up extremely patriotic and riding horses.
CHRIS KYLEI just want to get the bad guys but if I can’t see them, I can’t shoot them.
CHRIS KYLEI really don’t care what people think of me. I’ve got my family. I’ve got my friends. Yes, I have been trained to be a little more aggressive if I need to be, but I don’t go around thumping people.
CHRIS KYLEWhat wounded veteran’s don’t need is sympathy. They need to be treated like the men they are: equals, heroes, and people who still have tremendous value for society.
CHRIS KYLEWar is hell. Hollywood fantasizes about it and makes it look good; war sucks.
CHRIS KYLEMaybe war isn’t really fun, but I certainly was enjoying it.
CHRIS KYLEThe media cause more problems than they do good.
CHRIS KYLEIn my experience, Marines are gung ho no matter what. They will all fight to the death. Everyone of them just wants to get out there and kill. They are bad-ass, hard-charging mothers.
CHRIS KYLEI thought I should be stronger than was possible.
CHRIS KYLEMY REGRETS ARE ABOUT THE PEOPLE I COULDN’T SAVE—Marines, soldiers, my buddies. I still feel their loss. I still ache for my failure to protect them.
CHRIS KYLEI don’t have to psych myself up, or do something special mentally – I look through the scope, get my target in the cross hairs, and kill my enemy, before he kills one of my people.
