    Default I Was Once a "Button Buck"

    Tom Odom at least might get a laugh.
    Button bucks taste great

    As I signed into Fort Huachuca ages ago, a troop went haywire, took a weapon, and shot his CO and 1SG in their offices. I was unaware that the shooter had barricaded himself in and was shooting at folks outside. The kill zome included the troop medical clinic and I found that the front door was locked at 1000 hours. No one would open so I went around back where a SSG let me in with "once your in, Sir, your in." I asked what was going on and he told me. The staff had been watching me--the young butter bar--walk around in the kill zone to see if I got tagged.

    The MP react team took the shooter out later that morning. The 1SG made it. The CO did not.
