EXCERPT:
PLATNER: “I didn’t know who these guys were. I left that deployment and continued on with my life, did a few more deployments, both in the Marine Corps and the Army. It wasn’t until somebody told me to read Chris Kyle’s book. (...) His stories about how many people he was shooting certainly tracked with the behavior I witnessed and people I knew witnessed down at the Gov Center, which is, it’s relatively easy to get high numbers like that if you are — if you are a little less discriminating, you’re higher than, say, a more professional unit would be.”
