Quornelius Samentrio?? Goodness.

I wonder if it's pronounced like Cornelius or if the Qu is supposed to sound like the beginning of quorum.

Like…Kwornelius.

Which makes me think of that episode of Family Guy where they enunciate the "wh" in wheat things.

As someone who was an enlisted soldier who has seen how insane young soldiers can get I am very thankful to not have guns around. The amount of crazy stuff going down on bases would shock most people who haven't served.

When you have a sign counting the number of days since someone on post has died in a car accident and it routinely didn't get above 2 weeks you probably need to reduce the risks as much as you can.

The level of drinking and drug use to go along with mental issues and the crazy level of infidelity and domestic issues the last thing we needed was more guns around.

Now older soldiers especially Commanders and high ranking enlisted might be a good idea to look at.


I had a relative, career Navy, once explain it to me. He said the military was not an organization of generals and admirals. It was an organization of 18-year-olds.

I'm just a dumb 'sip' , albeit full on conservative, but even I know to take Kenny Roger's advice to "know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em"
Digging oneself a deeper hole only makes it harder to crawl out of….
This is a hearty bunch of posters on this forum. Someone offers a mea culpa, and I believe things can be water under the bridge, no?
Anyhooo…
...take it easy on me, I'm a normal horn

I had the same thought. Every time I see these made up names, I think about a poor 1st grader trying to learn to spell his or her name and then how the hell they pronounce it.

I'd bet the Qu is like you noted, Kwornelius. The middle name could be Salmon Trio (if parents fished, lol) but I bet it is Sahmontrio.

Oh I'm sorry. I thought this was the Fort Stewart shooting thread.

Hard to tell, isn't it?

Wonder what Quornelius thought he was going to accomplish.

Black Sgt. is a poor shot. Tackled by America's finest to neutralize the threat. Five soldiers shot - in stable condition.

EOT.

since it was a black shooter then CNN has no further interest in the story.

WTF? Do you not have to be clean shaven anymore? What in the hell is going on in the Army? Quornelius? He needs to thank his parents for setting him up for success early. Jesus. What's so wrong with Steve or Jim or Bob? Or just spell it right. Cornelius.

Looks like this may have been a domestic violence incident

This a "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" or did he shoot a chick amongst the 5? Haven't kept up with who the victims were.

Well, that explains the domestic violence charge.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill
