But yeah he jumped the fence in PTs with his Camelback and his UNLOADED ISSUED RIFLE and hijacks a school bus

What the actual fuck?!

What the actual fuck?!

Guy wanted to go back to New Jersey

 

[PsihoKekec]

He just earned himself a really loooooooooong prison sentence.

 

[Zachowon]

If he wanted out of Basic he should have just graduated then failed two PT tests in AIT

 

[Captain X]

Can't you just fail during basic as well to where they'll just discharge you?

It takes longer

 

[Captain X]

Well, he obviously wanted out as soon as possible. Makes me wonder why he signed up, because he clearly wasn't cut out for it.

 

[PsihoKekec]

Lot of people join the armed forces wit false assumptions.

He can literally just quit lol.

 

[Zachowon]

He can literally just quit lol.

Yeah, but its basic. Getting through it quickest is to just finish it. The paperwork is a pain in the ass

 

[Husky_Khan]

Maybe the school bus full of kids also wanted to escape school and found a sympathetic adult?

So called experts didn't think about THAT one did they?

Some people who volunteer aren't physically fit enough to even get to basic let alone through it. This guy wasn't one of the walking wounded.

One of the worst aspects of modern news is how they bring up these sensationalist stories and then there's never a follow up.

I can only assume that this Deserter and his busload of equally truant students are having adventures unsolving mysteries and righting wrongs as they road trip across America, one step ahead of onerous law enforcement.

The follow up is that they aren’t allowed to carry guns at Fort Jackson.

No guns for Fort Jackson trainees after school bus hijacking

Although Army officials knew the gun was unloaded, they said they recognize that others did not.

Which is a pretty intrinsic part of basic.

intitally I wondered how the hell this happened then I remembered this was florida and everything made sense.

 

[Jormungandr]

Guy probably just snapped.

Couldn't take it and wanted home
