The personnel carrier was driven away during routine training at Fort Pickett and has been returned to the base, authorities said.

The vehicle wasn’t equipped with any weapons, but Yabut had his personal weapon with him without any ammunition, according to the Guard.

A Twitter account believed to be Yabut’s showed video of what appeared to be Yabut driving the APC.

He also posted several bizarre messages, including one on June 4 that read: “wow i think i just discovered a large illegal spy operation in the us government”.

Yabut – a first lieutenant assigned as company commander of the 276th Engineer Battalion – has more than 11 years of service, officials told the Associated Press. He deployed to Afghanistan from 2008 to 2009 with the Illinois National Guard.

Williams said the Guard has started an internal investigation and “will determine appropriate actions once the investigation is complete.”

I wasted my time by clicking the link, but the question I would like to have answered is this: “What variety of drug/drugs did the kid have in his system?”

[Nifster]

Indeed

I want to know his nationality

Drugs and or alcohol always lead to bad decision making

Sounds rational to me, there are certainly enough large illegal spy operations in government for this kid to stumble over.

Yabut?

[LimitedPowers]

Obviously a set-up to discredit him after his discovery of the spy operation.

How can you post a story about an individual without including their first name ?

I was an 0-2 with 14 years service. 11 as an 19k/19d then I finished my degree. Guess what? Now you go to OCS as a “mustang”. I was a 38 year old CPT. We are out there....and our golfing buddies are 0-6s. If I had to do it again, I would have gone warrant officer.

That’s the only reason I clicked. What are the drugs?
