Will the Navy really charge LCDR White? If so, how does that make you feel?

"Better to be judged by twelve than carried by six." Not sure how a text to Allen West is an official news release, so we'll see if this is actually true. If so, the Navy will take a huge punch to the eye if it proceeds. The backlash will be strong and righteous. "We have reached ludicrous speed." http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2015/08/report-navy-officer-who-fired-on-islamist-during-chattanooga-terror-attack-will-be-charged/

He violated an order. Cut and dried. Therefore, he should be called into a room with his commander, from which loud noises will issue for an extended period of time, and then he should be seen walking out to go have a beer with his buddies, sans any official reprimand other than the one he'd just had.

Although, 'he might have screwed uo by regulation." It "depends on the situation."
I' with SN Greg Wright, I'd would like to join him for that beer.

I would buy him a round of beers! In this case violating an order to protect the lives of those around you is worth it! I would have done the exact same. I expect they will review the case further and drop the charges.

CAPT (Join to see) Unfortunately, he broke a regulation, but most likely saved additional lives, so that will be taken into consideration. Hopefully, they will do what they have to do to make sure that discipline is always prevalent in the uniformed services, give him a small slap on the hand, then award him a medal for taking the initiative to think quickly and do what he was trained to do when faced with adversity. Regulations are there for a reason and they must go through the process. Hate to say it and be the bad guy, but it is what it is! Just my opinion.

MSgt Mike Mikulski I don't disagree with what you are saying, but the regulations are in place for a reason. Those need to be changed going forward, but the fact is he had a personal weapon on Federal Property - isn't that against current regulations?

I believe we need to rethink the current regs since the battlefield has moved to our country.

COL Mikel J. Burroughs, judgment needs to prevail here. According to a post farther down, Navy has denied allegations that it intends to charge LCDR White. At least, so far.

CAPT (Join to see) That is very good news. I don't want him charged either. CPO Joseph Grant Definitely agree! I was just pointing out the facts thats all - I agree with pinning a medal on this LCDR!

I hope that cooler heads prevail and that they decide not to charge him. This sends the exact wrong message.

It is a regulation but no charges were brought against him. Just another effort by a right wing fool (Alan West) to make it seem that the military is run by wimps. No one in the current military set up this regulation.
Of course, Trevor, charges had to be a consideration. Should they just ignore the regulation? Someone had to make a decision and bringing charges was an option.
