Just spoke to a buddy of mine in TX who's ex-Army:

"I'm watching FOX and they have no idea as to what has happened. Anything from one flipping out to terrorists is being suggested.

Something to keep in mind. I was there recently. The base itself, the cantonment area, is huge, its like a small city, has nine schools. There's over 50,000 troops and families there, although some are deployed.

I can imagine that we will hear all sorts of speculation, assumptions, and rumors from the media before what we find out what happened.

They are saying now one shooter is wounded and captured and one at large."

I agreed, most people don't understand, Ft. Hood is humongous. It's running most of a Heavy Corps out of the place. You simply cannot search everyone and thing going in or out. The only way that's going to remotely happen is threatcon Charlie or Delta, and that'll mean a plain lockdown. That cannot be maintained indefinitely for obvious reasons.
