“When we requested that we stop training because someone had died … we were told to ‘shut the f— up, sit there and keep doing your job’ as if nothing happened,” the guard member told TPR. “We had made a request for chest seals, trauma supplies like tourniquets — stuff like that. … We were told that there was ‘no need for those supplies at this time.’ So they were denied. … This is immediately following a servicemember being shot in the back and dying.”
Only 17 Guardsmen dead? That must have been a calm morning roll-call
