By any chance was his new name Mohammed Islam or is the propaganda machine once again playing “filter the news”?
Stunning if so.
“Decorated” you say? Those are both ribbons EVERYONE gets at the end of basic training, IIRC. If he’d had any commendation medals or higher, then I’d agree with the headline. The press know nearly nothing about the armed forces, because they’d never think of serving and probably don’t have any friends that did, either.
accidental discharge of weapon was considered a misconduct thus ground for discharge????!?! Something does not sound right
“revealed to have a prior arrest for letting a gun off that could have harmed his neighbor while he cleaned his own weapon at home in Fort Worth, Texas, 2010.
Despite the lack of acknowledged motive, one U.S. official has been quoted as saying Alexis was kicked out of the Navy in 2011 for ‘misconduct’ as a direct result of his gun arrest three years ago. “
remedial math might help
The headline doesn’t match the body of the article. The NDS and GWOT take a pulse and being present during the prescribed timeframe. I also wonder about his separation being due to an accidental discharge at his home. I am guessing there is more to that story.
???
Oh you mean like Nidal Hassan?
Decorated? LOL.
A 3rd Class Petty Officer is basically the START of your career, once you have your rate. (Specific job)
You usually get to be a third class once you finish C school or you strike on the job.
He was a low level guy.... E-4
i’ve missed the spin this afternoon...
are they saying there was only one person? this morning they were saying 2 people shot with a third barricaded
That is not "decorated". Everyone who served in Iraq or Afghanistan or elsewhere got those after 9/11, if they performed "administrative, logistics, planning, operational, technical, or readiness activity" related to the "war on terror".
Aaron Alexis. FROM GOOGLE IMAGES
News here says he lived outside Seattle for awhile and had a gun incident while here.
The media knows nothing. We’ll find out what and who in about three weeks. Meanwhile the MSM will be going nuts trying to tie the guy to either the Tea Party or Rush Limbaugh and Conservatism.

So will we hear that he converted to Islam?
What a shocker...
My ex-son-in-law was demoted more then he was promoted. He told his wife (my daughter) that he was going to shoot up his (Coast Guard) base.
She immediately reported it. Nothing was done.
That was about 3 yrs ago.
This past May, he was finally given the boot....he wasn’t allowed to re-enlist.
He moved with his parents in his home state but then moved back...lose the base.
His mother told my daughter that he’s in a bad way mentally.
He had given her a hand gun and when she left him, she took it with her. She was visiting with his parents and the father-in-law took it and gave it back to his son, so he has a gun.
To my knowledge, the CG did nothing...they probably dismissed it as a lie from an angry wife.
BTW, where’s the NSA when you need them? I wonder how much online social media activity he had?
