The change is that a battalion commander can sign off on a memo allowing a Soldier to carry a concealed weapon for 90 days if the Soldier has provided a valid reason for wanting/needing to carry. A standard infantry battalion has about 800 Soldiers. If even 10% of those Soldiers want permission to carry, then the BN CDR is signing off on 80 memos every three months? That’s assuming he agrees with all of their reasons. No. That’s not going to happen.
so YES, there were good changes, and we can expect more after
President-Elect is in office.
Thank you, I was aware of what the article said.
