So do I, and don't call me silly. Again, a safety stand down is a safety stand down. I've seen a Corps stay in action, with a calm, dedicated, reasonable approach to an adverse incident. Training didn't kill anybody. What the people did killed them. The lack of training killed them. Stay in place to learn, to be trained. Your kind of hand-wringing is useless, will kill more people, and above all, shows disrespect for those who lost their lives. Also, I've never met an Army Chaplain so proud and brave as you. </spit>

If you don't like the term "silly" then perhaps you need to re-read your #120 and comment on it.

I don't have much to say to someone who thinks we have sites where 4 divisions train at once.

I've already said what I wanted to about the issue but the Chaplain is right, you've gone ballistic first.

Training didn't kill anybody. What the people did killed them. The lack of training killed them.

This is another statement that demonstrates a deficit of experience. Equipment failures kill, faulty plans kill, accidents are real, and they kill.

The notion that an entire Corps has been training at one site is simply out of touch with reality.
