Are you saying this because his medal count, where he claimed 2 silver stars and 5 bronze star in his book and military records report 1 silver star and 3 bronze? You do know a lot of military records won’t provide record of TS missions right? This dude was a war hero and a bad ass and if you think any different your ignorant.
His DD 214 listed 2 silver stars and 5 bronze stars as reported in his book
False.
So, out of the 255 claimed kills in his book ONLY 160 have been confirmed. He’s a Navy SEAL, you do understand he’s “outside the wire” and someone isn’t around to constantly to confirm all kills right!??? You obviously never served and have a “glass half empty” outlook.. Only one Silver Star not two only three Bronze Stars not five only 150 confirmed kills not 255. The man had no reason to lie! his track record even with what you call “stolen valor” still put’s you and anyone else to shame..he’s an American HERO. People like you with your narcissists outlook trying to tarnish someone’s image is the problem with this country.
Fact check
Please don’t try to make this political and spread leftist misinformation.
Most military members that I’ve dealt with just want a DD214 that has an honorable discharge status with enough years of service to qualify for VA benefits (like a VA home loan). Citations are important but I doubt many would dispute a DD214 if those weren’t 100% accurate
Well your majesty, that may not apply to you, but it absolutely applies to Rifle.
His own peers and superiors criticized him for this. I am just exposing the truth.
Which begs the question, why did he? He was warned prior to his book being published that his claims were not accurate regarding each issue. He lied in the book and was found liable in a court of law for it regarding yet another boast.
Fact check for a moron: He didn't sue for $1 million like you claim. He was awarded $1.8 million which was upheld in an appeals court. He then sued the publisher. During that time, another appeals court overturned the initial ruling. After Kyle's death, Ventura settled out of court with the publisher for, by all accounts, a large amount.
Fact check for a moron. In the book, Kyle decided to go with a different number than his DD Form 214 showed. So claiming that it wasn't his fault that the form was inaccurate is bogus, considering he even went against what was in that form and what he was advised to do.
Fact check: No, he didn't rely on what the Navy put on his official record. He put a different number than what was on his DD Form at the time of writing/publishing his book and a different number than what he was told by the Navy was the appropriate number.
It's not misinformation. It's accurate information. Please tell me what is misinformation that I posted.
Oh, you want to play, too, Meg. What was misinformation that I presented? How was I the one who made this political when the other poster made it political with his commentary about Kyle?
I said nary a word about you spreading misinformation, dipshit. Learn to read.
Now you are making stuff up. Links to his book
Where do I use misrepresentation, pediatric body rubber?
List what I have made up, moron and liar.
Moron, I mentioned that already. It wasn't overturned due to finding that he didn't lie. It was overturned based on another reason, meaning that multiple courts agreed that he lied.
By all accounts, it was for a substantial amount.
No, he didn't. Why are you going to call somebody far more intelligent than you, especially when arguing something you know you're wrong about?
On Jesse
Nothing you have posted refuted anything I said. You continue posting things that have already been mentioned and have no relevance.
No, I am laughing at you for having yet another argument of yours blow up in your face.
You are the guy who said he made stuff up. It appears to me if anything he undersold his story or what he said was correct and the Navy just doesn’t know or wants to share , which is more likely
He did. A person doesn't lose track of 1 and 3 vs. 2 and 5.
More than 100 seals gave Chris their trident at his funeral. I can guarantee you that if these individuals would have felt that Chris was stealing Valor that would not have happened.
Tell me you never served in the military without saying you never served in the military 😆
Easy to tell when I spell things correctly and use proper grammar, huh?
I think it’s over anybody with stolen valor.
Mine is he used stolen valor and was a liar. Period!!!!!!!!! And since I used more exclamation points, I win.
Glad to know that I’m not paying for your pension. We have too many of those around here.
Tell that to all the SEALS at his funeral.
Nobody was saying that he was despised. What was said was that he took part in stolen valor and lied about multiple things.
You don’t seem to realize that descendants can sue, and have successfully, for money damages their family faced generations ago.
Somebody who doesn’t know the difference between “metal” and “medal” is trying to say that I’m wrong about a definition while trying to bastardize the phrase? That’s cute.
