The shooter was being treated for PTSD.
His weapon was a Smith and Wesson .45, recently purchased in the Fort Hood area.
Like previous massacres, he kept killing until the MP's arrived, then 86'd himself.
SIA
This wacko was being evaluated for PTSD so he may not have had it. I just wanted to clarify that because he gives the people that seek real help a bad name. Thousands or millions have PTSD and function just fine in their daily lives and on their jobs, to include being soldiers, LEO's, FD, EMS, ect. It makes me wonder if he is another phony that wants the PTSD diagnosis so he can get the free VA pay check? From articles I read today he never even saw combat. If he did actually have it that's no excuse and incidents like this will fuel the anti gun fire
I also want to commend the female MP. She was alert and wasn't duped by this wacko when he had his hands up and then went for his gun. This happens a lot and she was ready. Whoever trained her did good. While I wonder if she got any actual hits on him, her engaging him caused him to take his own life which is outstanding
Army Secretary has stated that the shooter saw no combat and was not wounded. He looks like a phony.
