“You’ve only got three choices in life: Give up, give in, or give it all you’ve got” said Charleston Parker, author of “One Soul, Many Faces.” More notably it is a common motivational phrase used by the Navy SEALs.

Have you ever thought about how many men and women serve our country? Have you ever thought that maybe just 1 person could change everyone on that team soldiers? Well, critics might say oh he's not a hero if he killed people for our country, or he's not a hero because all he did was kill innocent people as his duty. Well these critics might be right but Chris Kyle had some VERY important kill's in his book, he had 160 "official" kills but many more that were not official and had completed many missions

From 1999 to 2009, U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle recorded the most career sniper kills in United States military history. The Pentagon has officially confirmed more than 150 of Kyle 's kills (the previous American record was 109).
