Feb. 2 marks ten years since decorated Navy SEAL veteran Chris Kyle was shot and killed at the age of 38 by a fellow veteran in 2013. Kyle served out a nearly 11-year career in the Navy from his enlistment in Feb. 1999 to his discharge in Nov. 2009. He then created a security training company called Craft International, and it was during a training event that PTSD-stricken veteran Eddie Routh ambushed Kyle, shooting him five times in the back while at a gun range in Texas. Kyle's friend Chad Littlefield was also killed in the attack.
