Nah... just a good distraction to keep the news whore's from giving away all the investigation secrets in DC.

Yeah, I heard about the "scuffle" from a buddy stationed there with the Ranger bat. He said it was quite an animated little firefight until the law showed up.

Anyway, hope this leads to the shooter.

Fort Lewis, WA

Home of the first medium-weight brigades. They deploy fast like the Light Infantry but carry a big punch like the heavies.

Their training revolves around mobile and stealth duty. Weaponry varies greatly but inlcudes large-caliber sniper rifles.

Apparently the suspect (not to be confused with 'alleged sniper'), John Allen "Muhammed" Williams, was training at this base and got discharged. He was not a sniper nor in the special operations.
