Who sent soldiers into an Alabama town last week?
Who sent 22 military police and an Army officer into the tiny Alabama town of Samson last week after a gunman went on a rampage that left 11 people dead? That's what the U.S. Army would like to know.
I'm cautiously worried about this one. Guy was on a rampage, and communities often have agreements with nearby bases to help--Eglin lends their bomb-sniffing dogs to our sheriff's department and city police. But in this case, seems like a lot of MPs and no one knowing how they got there. Not good.
