You're in a combat zone one day. You come home, and then you have to readjust, and it takes a few days. We just sit in the house, hang with the family and then things get better.

You're not just going out there, maybe sacrificing your own life. There's also sacrifices still going on at home. You can serve in the military and have a good marriage, but you just need to be aware of it so you can take those steps to take care of it.

It was my duty to shoot the enemy, and I don't regret it. My regrets are for the people I couldn't save: Marines, soldiers, buddies. I'm not naive, and I don't romanticize war. The worst moments of my life have come as a SEAL. But I can stand before God with a clear conscience about doing my job.

Every person I killed I strongly believe that they were bad. When I do go face God there is going to be lots of things I will have to account for but killing any of those people is not one of them.

I'm just trying to be the me that I am and not all of this other crap. I just want to be the family man, and if somehow I can make the money to get my ranch and get the hell away from everybody else, that would be awesome.

After I was discharged from the military, it was difficult trying to become a civilian.

But even before I was in the military, I was extremely jumpy when asleep.

Every time I kill someone, he can't plant an I.E.D. You don't think twice about it.

I am not a fan of politics.

I like war.

I really don't care what people think of me.

I would love for people to be able to think of me as a guy who stood up for what he believed in and helped make a difference for the vets.

I'm a better husband and father than I was a killer.

I'm just trying to get back to normal life.

It's not a problem taking out someone who wants your people dead. That's not a problem at all.

The media cause more problems than they do good.

The Navy credits me with more kills as a sniper than any other American service member, past or present.

There's definitely still a lot of hurt from losing my guys or the fact that I got out and I felt like it wasn't my time yet.

War is hell. Hollywood fantasizes about it and makes it look good... war sucks.

When I grew up, I only had two dreams. One was to be a cowboy and another was to be in the military. I grew up extremely patriotic and riding horses.
