The American Sniper missed the mark when it came to his own accomplishments. Chris Kyle, the Navy SEAL known as the deadliest sniper in U.S. military history, lied about his accolades, after exaggerating his military record, documents showed. But Navy documents published by The Intercept showed that Kyle actually only earned one Silver Star and three Bronze Stars with Valor.
Christopher Scott Kyle was a United States Navy SEAL veteran and sniper. Kyle served four tours in the Iraq War and was awarded several commendations for acts of heroism and meritorious service in combat. He was awarded one Silver Star Medal, four Bronze Star Medals with V devices, a Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal and numerous other unit and personal awards. Kyle was honorably discharged from the U.S. Navy in 2009 and published his bestselling autobiography, American Sniper, in 2012. An eponymous film adaptation of Kyle's book, directed by Clint Eastwood, was released two years later.
