Wounded Warrior Project on the Passing of Chris Kyle

JACKSONVILLE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) pauses today to remember and honor an American hero, former Navy Seal Chris Kyle. Chris served this country during four tours in Iraq and received two Silver Stars, among other awards. Upon his retirement from the military he continued to give back to his brothers and sisters in arms by creating the Fitco Cares Foundation. He also represented WWP when he partnered with actor Dean Cain in the television reality show Stars Earns Stripes. Chris was the true embodiment of our logo – one soldier carrying another. He gave of himself on the battlefield and off. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and the family of Chad Littlefield, whose life was also taken too soon. Rest in peace.
