I was in the last few weeks of “A” School at the NTC San Diego. His shooting didn’t affect me one way or another. I was more concerned about what my next duty station would be. Later on a few shipmates and I attended a rally for George Wallace and Curtis LeMay. I think I still have the Wallace/LeMay license plate that I bought for a dollar at the event. General LeMay was an advocate of using nukes on enemies in situations where lots of our men would likely die if the choice was ground warfare. Wonder what nuking Hanoi might have resulted in besides a lot of dead gooks?
Two of my white buds in the KC area were beaten unconscious by African gangs for no reason other than their light skin. The event was another looting opportunity for the Africans—not much has changed with their behavior.
