This is coolbert:

Also the American military man behaving badly. The cure however perhaps worse than the illness?

Basic trainees no longer [for a time perhaps] will be issued and have to carry the basic combat rifle.

"Fort Jackson Pauses Giving Trainees Guns After School Bus Hijacking"

"COLUMBIA, S.C. -- The nation's largest Army basic training base will halt its weapons immersion training after a trainee escaped last week and hijacked a school bus with an unloaded weapon, a Fort Jackson spokesperson announced Thursday afternoon."

Trainee now "escaping" but rather AWOL [absent without leave].Taking his M4 weapon with him. UNLOADED. And hijacking a school bus [empty or otherwise a further serious offense].

The army response rather draconian. NO weapons issued to trainees during basic training? Until the issue can be resolved. However that can be.

Well, at least the soldier did not shoot some drill instructors at the rifle range. We can be glad for that.
