Deadliest American sniper shot dead

Written By Unknown on Sunday, 3 February 2013 | 13:48

In his book Kyle declared himself the deadliest marksman in US military
history. The Pentagon certified 150 of his kills while in Iraq between 1999
and 2009.

At one point he is said to have killed an insurgent from 1.2 miles away. He
was nicknamed “the Devil of Ramadi” by Iraqi insurgents due to his
prowess.

After he returned to the US Kyle founded FITCO Cares, a non-profit foundation
which helped returning servicemen with PTSD.

Travis Cox, the director of Fitco Cares, said that Kyle’s wife Taya and their
children “lost a dedicated father and husband” and the country has
lost a “lifelong patriot and an American hero.”

Recently, Kyle spoke out against Barack Obama’s gun control proposals.

He accused the US President of being “against the Second Amendment”.
