International students can complete all or part of the typical 18-month syllabus on base and must go through several federal vetting processes before training at NAS Pensacola.

“The way that program works is that the foreign government has to certify that these are the best of their best, that these are their future generals and admirals and senior military officials for their countries,” said U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz (R, Fla.). “The U.S. State Department does a scrub on those prospective trainees, and after that they matriculate into the program.”

If that is the case the Saudi vetting program is unreliable, perhaps he was the son of someone special?

Al-Shamrani is an Arabic surname that is given to those who are a part of the Arabic tribe known as “Shamran” that exists in the southern part of modern-day Saudi Arabia.

Not much in Arabic yet, but there is a picture of him (taken from NBC) in this site from the area https://www.almashhad-alyemeni.com/151724
