Bad ass. I've been waiting for this since his book came out. I always thought it would make a great movie. Too bad he isn't around to make sure they did the movie right. In the above clip it shows him shooting a kid. He actually shot the women and she was holding a yellow Chinese grenade.

I was surprised to see that deviation too. That was his first confirmed kill IIRC.

Re: Clint Eastwood's "American Sniper" will be a must-see
When you guys go see it, let me know how it was.
Eastwood directed "Midnight in the Garden of Going and Evil", too. There were several deviations from the book in that film, too.
Hope there's a scene where a guy who looks like Jesse Ventura gets an @$$ whoopin'.

Lol, that's what I thought I had typed, Alan. That'll learn me to try typing and talking to GF simultaneously.
I suppose I should be thankful that I didn't type out a snippet of conversation, lmao. Y'all would have been all manner of confused.

Re: Clint Eastwood's "American Sniper" will be a must-see
You know the interesting thing about Bradley Cooper. Even though he's a leftwing hollywood type, he actually takes to military/firearms training very well.
When he was training for "The A-Team". The trainer made a comment that "Bradley missed his calling in that he was as accurate, and actually faster than the military guys" he trained. (shrugs) I've camped with guntotting hippies that are awesome shots, so I guess it's a "gift" to some.
