Pentagon Refuses to Arm Military Recruiters – Tells Them to “Close the Blinds”
Army chief of staff Gen. Ray Odierno said on Friday he has no plans to arm recruiters or add security patrols to military recruitment centers in the wake of the Islamist terror attacks on unarmed, unguarded military offices in Chattanooga, Tennessee on Thursday. Odierno basically said he doesn’t trust his troops to handle their weapons properly.
Also on Friday, the Marine Corps ordered recruiters to not wear their uniforms at work for ‘force protection.’
Today the Pentagon added this– Military recruiters are being told to “close the blinds” for added safety.
Gretchen Carlson reported:
“ We have just confirmed here at FOX from the Pentagon, that the head of the US Northern Command has now issued a directive to authorize recruiters not to be able to carry weapons at the centers but he wants them to implement new security measures like “closing the blinds at the office

The military Pentagon brass is much too careless with our soldiers’ and Veterans’ lives.
Most of the military demonstrates good judgement. The politically influenced top brass demonstrates cowardice in the face of political pressure.
These are the fools we count on to protect us? Now I understand why the military couldn’t make it to Behghazi... effing cowards...
This has got to get somebody in Congress off their do nothing keisters! We need to burn up the switch board again!
Right.
Just think....If they’d had the blinds closed on the World Trade Center, those buildings would never have been hit and come crashing down.....
Ordierno has sold out. The one man I thought could save the Army is now destroying it.
The Marines are now more like Mermaids instead of soldiers.
Our governor Thug McAuliffe in Virginia is refusing to allow soldiers to arm themselves on bases and at recruiting centers (a prime terrorist target).
What we now have are no long military bases but “Fairy Farms” run by pacifists and cowards.
We have Restone Arsenal here in town so there won’t be any shortage of volunteers for guarding nor for volunteers to keep them in water and food.
BFLR
Pathetic.
Is this a sarcasm thread?
That would be funny if not so sad.
Canned fruit is an effective weapon, if you’re Monty Python.
I guess they could also hide under their desks and raise a white flag. These leftist military “leaders” that are left after Obumbler’s purge have no concern for the troops.
I really wish it were sarcasm. It is unbelievable what is happening in this country. The Recruiters should tell the Pentagon that when they give up their armed protection, they will, too.
It is a crying shame what is going on. We need someone like Col. Allen West as Secretary of Defense under our next President to get this awful mess straightened out.
They can carry them now, they just can't shoot them.
Sadly, we are now living in a period of time when even the “posse comitatus act” is working less and less thanks to the Islamofacists in our society.
....And the armed public is saying NO!
