I don’t know that this story has ever been confirmed one way or the other.
Another link for you ...
The story told by Kyle WAS verified. Not only by the author Mooney but mentioned in Marcus Luttrel's book.
Unfortunately the local law enforcement agencies have no record of the event, no record of a video, no media accounts, and most importantly, no family members of the alleged killed thugs coming forward and wondering what happened to their loved ones.........
As a vet, I have the utmost respect for his DOCUMENTED valor while serving in the Armed Forces and he should have left it at that.
Unfortunately he found it necessary to embellish his reputation by printing and saying things about his civilian life that were either proven not true (bar fight) or the unsubstantiated gas station shooting - which in my opinion is a VERY SERIOUS CLAIM!
And I'm not even going to bring up his claims about snipers on the Super Dome shooting 30 civilian looters.....
