He shot and killed 160 people and bragged about it in a book.
He shot and killed more than 160 "insurgents", most of who were shooting at marines that he was assigned to cover. He then wrote a book about military life that described some of his missions in a few of the chapters.
Really depends on how we write it to make it positive or negative, and while I understand where you are coming from, I don't see it from that perspective. I was never in the military, but have respect for those that have done so.
Definitely not trying to start something here, but could not hold my
"commando chair" typing hands.
With much respect,
