Do any Freepers know where we can watch Chris Kyle's memorial service online?
Possibly http://www.nbcdfw.com/ out of Dallas??
Don’t know either. Drove by there about an hour ago and it’s really filling up.
Looks like we’ll be able to watch it live online at nbc 5’s website.
Thousands, including Sarah Palin, expected at memorial service for Navy SEAL sniper Chris Kyle today at Cowboys Stadium
Update at 10:31 a.m.: Among those expected to attend today’s service is former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, who posted the following to her Facebook page this morning:
Todd and I are in Dallas today to attend Chris Kyle’s memorial and funeral service. I find it sad to see that flags aren’t flying at half staff for this American hero. We’re surrounded today by American patriots here in Texas – by Chris’ fellow veterans and active duty warriors. In honor of them, I hope our commander in chief pays his respects in some gesture of condolence for their comrade in arms who sacrificed so much to keep him and all of us safe.
We may never know to what extent Chris kept us free or how many lives he saved by his brave actions in the line of fire. But his fellow warriors know how important he was. My son Track couldn’t meet Chris when Todd and I first met him because Track was deployed to Iraq. Then when we got to know Chris even better, our son was deployed in Afghanistan. We’ve met a lot of people in recent years, and Track has been privileged to meet them as well. But he said about Chris, “Mom, he’s the ONE person in the entire world I would be star-struck to meet. He’s it.”
God bless this great warrior. Let us keep his wife and children in our prayers, and may we never forget him or his sacrifice.

• In honor of the reverence this memorial service deserves, Chris Kyle’s family has asked that the general public not take photographs or record video during the ceremony. No cameras will be allowed inside.
Kyle is slated to be buried Tuesday in Austin and his friends want anyone who can to line up along the route of his processional that day to honor him. The processional will begin on US-67, just west of US-287 at approximately 9:00 a.m. Tuesday and will be traveling to Austin via US-67 S and I-35W South.
Anyone living along that route or who just wants to participate is encouraged to show their support.
Is it being covered anywhere?
I imagine all the media will be covering it in some sort. Foxnews will probably carry a good portion of it live?
And NBC 5 out of Dallas will be streaming it live online.
