The no guns rule (except while training with them) doesnt make a whole lot more sense on a military base I was in a room where a Sergeant let the slide slip on his .45 without dropping the magazine. It happened while he was "clearing" it to turn into the Arms room. The room itself had about 20 guys in it lining up to turn in machine guns and the like. It was pure luck that nobody was hurt. As it was, the round was dug out of the wall the next day after it had done two ricochets off the floor and another wall.
Part of the Sergeant's punishment was to go around to every squad of every platoon in the battalion and demonstrate the proper way to clear a .45 while pointing it into a barrel of sand that he had to transport himself.

One of the dead was a 55 year old career psychiatric nurse practitioner, - married, mother and grandmother - whose home was Havre de Grace, MD. She volunteered to go to Iraq because she thought she had something good to offer the troops in theater. She had been working at Perry Point Veterans Hospital in Md.
I bet the sadist/inadequate creep Hasan targeted her because she was good at rapport with troops and he was a loooooooser!

I agree, I don’t understand this part of the story. It had never made any sense to me.

Outer Mongolia, dead of winter, dressed in shorts and flip flops sounds good to me. Fly over, put a parachute on him(or not) and dump his sorry as* out.

At least she got shot in a room full of people who were trained to deal with the very thing. Yeah.
I figured the next mohammedan attack on US soil would be at a day care center or kindergarden.

I tend to agree, he does not fit the storyline. Granted he did not get shot but why would that get you written out of news accounts? He was one of the two people there and shooting at the terrorist and must have affected the outcome.

You know, after 3 days, these are the 1st pictures I've seen of the victims. No offense meant, but I saw many of them the next day. The stories often led with the pretty blonde sergeant or the pregnant woman, of course. Then the newlywed.

...If I were Obama, Id be a bit embarrassed that troops had to call the cops......according to some accounts as long as 10 minutes before Hasan was actually taken down by the armed police officer) raises serious questions about the training theyve received. These arent a bunch of random high school kids; theyre trained soldiers,...
...By the way, why did it have to fall to a civilian cop to defend enlisted troops?...
I've worked on two Air Force bases and one Army base as a civilian contractor so I can only speak of those installations. On those bases the security was actually contracted out to private companies along with a mix of active duty MP personnel. None of the other active duty military personnel were allowed to carry weapons.

And yet, some stories have said that they both fired and something like, “authorities won’t know for some time how many times each officer hit Hasan.”
But the way they are reporting it elsewhere as all her, it makes me wonder if he never fired...or realized he had missed.
