Update from Mark Alexander – April 29, 2010
PUBLISHER'S NOTE: Regarding my essay, Army Preps for Tea Party 'Terrorists', I was contacted by senior command staff at Ft. Knox this afternoon. There was a security exercise at Ft. Knox this week, but an officer in the security loop altered the scenario "in order to make it more realistic." Those alterations were described in my essay, exactly as they appeared. The command staff informed me that the alterations were not approved at the command level and that the individual who circulated the scenario through official channels will "receive appropriate counsel." I was assured that the Command staff would not have authorized such a scenario.
Will the senior command staff also inform everyone who participated which parts of the scenario was altered and which would be inappropriate to use of deadly force?
Thanks, I didn’t see it. Lots to do today and haven’t even gone all the way through the first page of replies.
Yeah....sure.
