The article states "The two soldiers allegedly carried out the transaction while wearing their army uniforms." Is this a black eye for the Army Reserves?

First ISIS, then the cartels, and now we find ISIS is set up in the cartel's back yard?

Selling guns to the cartel is low even for a crook.<br />What I do find noteworthy is that the article leads one to conclude this was actual military gear. SAPI plates, ammo, and certainly weapons have pretty tight control measures on them to prevent this kind of thing from happening. If they could get their hands on this material and not be caught, that does speak ill of the accountability in whatever organization they are in.<br />I hope they rot in jail for a very long time. 1SG Private RallyPoint Member Thu, 16 Apr 2015 11:35:03 -0400 2015-04-16T11:35:03-04:00 2015-04-16T08:25:36-04:00
