He did not endure tranquility.In Iraq, Chris served as a Navy SEAL tasked with safeguarding Marines and soldiers in the most perilous neighborhoods. Rooftops. Narrow streets. Windows concealing firearms. Each movement signified demise. His role was to observe first. Fire first. Prioritize saving others. He took on that responsibility.Over four deployments, he observed the streets through a scope for hours. Days. Weeks. He anticipated dangers. Upon their arrival, he took action. Over 150 verified adversary combatants were eliminated due to his vigilance. Numerous Americans returned home safely because he remained resolute.He was pursued.Focused.Pursued.He continued to come back regardless.When he departed from Iraq, his body had returned home. His thoughts remained in turmoil.After serving, Chris aimed to assist fellow veterans facing hidden struggles. He brought injured comrades to the ranges. He paid attention. He remained nearby. He felt that preserving lives continued even after the war concluded. #theamericanarchive #AmericanHistoryUntold #AmericanHistory
