Rob Morales was the Director of Dining for FSU. Founded a popular restaurant here called Gordo’s. His Father was a Cuban Exile and worked for the CIA.
The other gentleman who’s name escapes me at the moment was a VP for Aramark, the Contractor who provides food service staff on Campus. He was here on a visit.
He’s 20. He was a Sheriff’s explorer for years and was on the Sheriff’s Youth Advisory Council. I worked with him on several projects regarding youth and violence. He was around trained LEOs and mental health professionals all the time and no one saw anything..
My ex Mother in Law worked for decades dealing with the Officer Housing at West Point and she told me that the Pentagon does dumb stuff that leads to things like that.
For years, she spent a certain number each year on Officer’s housing on Post. When Afghanistan and Iraq kicked off, alot of the Officers serving as Academic officers etc put in to get their Combat ticket punched. Therefore, she spent a lot less on housing. When those Officers and their families returned to post, they gave her a hard time about the increase she asked for in her budget. When she went to her boss, he told her to basically spend at the same level she had always spent at going forward.
When my family member was killed in Afghanistan, our family was never given the option to withhold the release of their name by the DOD. When did this change?
Two of the three (White Males) have been named by family members. It is the 3rd and only Female of the bunch that has not been named by any source yet.
But what he doesn’t say is as important as what he does. Yes, it may be difficult to see the Black Hawk, but how do those inside the Helicopter not see a commercial aircraft directly in front of them with it’s gear down and landing lights on for over a minute? Would all three crew members have their eyes averted from what was going on outside the aircraft, flying at night in a heavily trafficked area?
I appreciate his insight, but things aren’t adding up here. Also, why the disclosure of the two male crew members names but not the female? Ostensibly, these folks being based CONUS would have their NOK either living close by or easily reachable. Again, there are things here not making sense.
