“When we requested that we stop training because someone had died … we were told to 'shut the f— up, sit there and keep doing your job' as if nothing happened,” the guard member told TPR. “We had made a request for chest seals, trauma supplies like tourniquets — stuff like that. … We were told that there was 'no need for those supplies at this time.' So they were denied. … This is immediately following a servicemember being shot in the back and dying.”
No no no you don't understand....it takes three grown ass men armed with fully automatic weapons to guard a section of razorwire set up along a river bed in case of a potential attack child making its way across the spot where their buddy died and destroying the Taco Bell with a tactical nuke developed by ISIS. Don't let the terrorists win!
