Since he is in the psychiatric field in the military, I'm guessing probably, but we'll probably never know what Nidal knew or didn't know other than it's a "gun free zone".

FORT BRAGG, N.C., Oct. 27 (1995) — As 1,300 soldiers of the 82d Airborne Division were setting out on a predawn run from a flood-lit stadium here today, muzzle flashes and gunfire erupted from the woods about 150 yards away. Within seconds, a sniper had killed 1 soldier, wounded 18 others and sent hundreds fleeing for cover.

Unarmed Special Forces soldiers jogging who were nearby heard the shots, dashed into the woods in what they described as a "flanking movement," surprised a gunman and subdued him in a struggle.

In the past, Kreutzer had reportedly told a friend that he knew what the record number of people killed in a rampage shooting was, and earned himself the nickname "Crazy Kreutzer".

In June 1994, Kreutzer broke down in tears while on guard duty in the Sinai, and spoke of killing several other soldiers
He was disciplined, and sent to see the division's social worker, Darren Fong, who said he suffered from low self-esteem and anger management problems. He was deemed to not be a threat, but was disallowed weapons for two weeks following the incident.
