From the article:
“The National Guard confirmed he had been a member but said he was honorably discharged four months ago:”
“NBC News reported that the shooters family is from Puerto Rico, and he served in National Guard and signed up in August 2016.”
Numbers don’t jibe. Either he joined in August or was discharged four months ago. Can’t be both.
Joined, and either caught him on the initial background check, screwed up at his first drill at Pre-Basic, or didn’t show up at all.
He signed up in August 2016, and was discharged 4 MONTHS AGO??? Not great tenure, Killer!
