Oh that’s the famous Gen. Russ Honore, the big, tall, Natnl. Guard General who was on hand in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in N.O.? I’d wondered what he was doing these days, and if he was still in the service! What a guy!

“Shots fired” reports (unconfirmed) in the Comanche Four area of base (residential). Also, reports that 500 military personnel are working on base to search and secure.

Well, thanks for the information but next time, try not to be such an ahole in conveying your expert knowledge....IOW, I’ll accept your apology when it is offered and we move on...with my knowledge base extended.

I doubt anything in TX is high on BO’s priorities list. He lost TX to McCain, and, before that, to Hillary.

I wonder what the holster looks like for an F-16?

KCEN reporting that Kuma Village and Liberty Village are distant from the site of the original shootings today. Still on base, but not in the vicinity. (Ft Hood covers 15 sq miles)

wasn’t there a plot to do something like this in Colorado.

They say one is a soldier as were the others.
