REST IN PEACE, FALLEN BROTHER!



SWOC Christopher Scott Kyle, USN, Died 2Feb2013


U.S. NAVY SEALS
"People Sleep Peaceably In their Beds At Night Only Because Rough Men Stand Ready To Do Violence On Their Behalf. "

I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)


"Arm yourselves, and be ye men of valour, and be in readiness for the conflict; for it is better for us to perish in battle than to look upon the outrage of our nation and our altar. As the Will of God is in Heaven, even so let it be." (1 Maccabees 3:58–60)

Eternal Father, Strong to Save



Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in peace!
We who remain hold you in high honor.
Rest, fallen brother, in this sacred precinct;
We who remain keep this place sacred.
Rest, fallen brother, among these, your comrades;
We who remain keep the watch.
Rest, fallen brother, amid these who heeded the Nation’s call;
We who remain press the fight forward in your name.
Rest, fallen brother, lay down thy burden;
We who remain have taken up the torch.
Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in eternal peace!

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

He was a Navy Seal - and the greatest American Sniper - 160 confirmed kills. He was assisting a Marine vet with PTSD at a shooting range in Texas when the vet attacked and killed Chris and a companion, Chad Littlefield.

We watched it, too. Very nice tribute to an American hero. I can’t recall a bigger memorial service except for a President. Semper Fi, Seal Kyle.

Did he get a flyover? I hope so! Was it an open stadium?

No, it is kinda chilly here, the roof was closed. Did see a Jolly Green as we were leaving but they fly around over there sometimes, no flyover per se.

Well, the things his friends said matched what I have always heard about the guy. Fierce warrior on the battlefield and a tender loving father and husband at home. Gave all the proceeds from his book to Chad Littlefield’s mom, apparently.

When his wife spoke, I’ll never forget her words “I am a broken woman ...” Her speech tore everybody up, I think we were all crying in the stands.

Then, Randy Travis. He did two songs, Love Song and Amazing Grace. Say what you will, I really like his music, and I don’t think anybody knew he was coming out.

RIP Frogman, you are missed.

Thanks Chuck for answering. I sure hope the procession is shown live tomorrow. Hope to see people line the roads for Kyle. P.S. I think Jerry Jones was the billionaire he choked out...haha. Bless Mr. Jones for sending Kyle off right.

It was indeed moving - I watched some of it online. Naturally, the Anointed One chose that precise time to present the MOH to SSgt. Romesha.

I figured Jones was the guy. Wish I could get my hands around his scrawny little Arkansas neck. At first I wondered how they got Cowpie Stadium as the venue.
