<@U02BY23UR> I'm expecting to be interviewed at 1030 on 09MAY (this coming Thursday). I'm expecting that the interview will be in Chattanooga, but I'm not sure yet (I asked). It's possible that the interview will be in Virginia. I think that CENSECFOR will be paying for my travel.

<@U02BKFX3R> Thank you for letting me know soon. How long do you think you’ll be gone for?

<@U02BY23UR> Probably just a couple of days. I'd probably leave Pensacola on Wednesday then return on Thursday. If it's in Chattanooga, should we go together?

<@U02BKFX3R> If it’s in Chattanooga, it would be neat to go together, huh?

<@U02BKFX3R> Are you allowed to share the email with me or at least the parts where they describe what it is for? :slightly_smiling_face:

<@U02BKFX3R> Who is the video for? Can you say?

<@U02BY23UR> Yes, the video is for CENSECFOR. The emails said:
&gt;Tim, The production company gave us some dates for filming in the studio here in Chesapeake. They are available 7-9 May. Will your schedule allow you to make one of those days? -Lester Moore
&gt;Hi Tim, Would you be able to be at the production studio at about 1030 on May 9th?  CAPT Berta will be interviewed at 0900 and you can follow right behind him.  Lester can be interviewed after lunch. Let me know as soon as possible if you need travel funds. V/R, Bob Essman

<@U02BY23UR> I guess I'll be traveling to VA for the interviews.

<@U02BY23UR> I can either do the interview in Chesapeake, VA next wee or in Chattanooga on 22 or 23MAY. Which would you prefer? The Navy will probably pay for our travel which may make going to the wedding more doable.

<@U02BY23UR> I think that I'd prefer to conduct the interview in Chattanooga.

<@U02BKFX3R> I love the idea of Chattanooga. :heart_eyes:

<@U02BKFX3R> I felt so hopeful yesterday when I was able to clean for hours! I just need to make sure I eat well, get a lot of good rest, and avoid things that exhaust me as much as possible.

<@U02BKFX3R> Is the recital date still a good time?

<@U02BKFX3R> It’s amazing the interview option in Chattanooga is right at the wedding weekend. Who else will be there?

<@U02BY23UR> I'm not sure who else will be there. I'm assuming that Lester Moore will be there. CAPT Berta may also be there.

<@U02BY23UR> I think that the recital timing will still work.

<@U02BKFX3R> It will make it so special and more real for the interview to be there in Chattanooga.

<@U02BKFX3R> I was even thinking yesterday how neat it would be to visit Operation Song. I was watching clips yesterday.

<@U02BKFX3R> I can’t do much in my condition, but it can be a goal perhaps.

Jared W Ogden | Former Navy Seal, USNA ‘04, TV personality (one bio says) proposes conceal carry after Chattanooga terrorist attack

<@U02BKFX3R> I was doing a search and found this article and person that I thought you’d be interested in: <http://danaloeschradio.com/navy-seal-responds-to-chattanooga-terrorism-urges-dod-to-change-gun-policy#comment>

<@U02BKFX3R> I was trying to send a message about you to connect on Instagram, but it failed. So I sent an email on the contact form from the website linked on his Instagram profile:
<https://www.triumph-systems.com/blogs/triumphsystems/top-10-gifts-for-under-50>

<@U02BKFX3R> After I sent it, I thought you may want to contact him yourself instead of him replying to my message on the contact form since my original intention was to write from our joint account on Instagram, which doesn’t matter anymore at this point. :blush:

He may not be a believer, but I thought you would think it was neat with some things he said in response to defending our troops better.

Sheriff Jim Hammond of Hamilton County, TN

<@U02BKFX3R> Do you know or have you heard of Sheriff Hammond’s bio? <http://www.hcsheriff.gov/gen_info/about_sheriff.asp>

<@U02BY23UR> I know that he is a Navy man.

<@U02BKFX3R> I saw that and was surprised. I also saw that he lived in Jordan.

<@U02BY23UR> Yeah -- I didn't know that. I thought that it was interesting that the bio mentioned that and his contact with the M.E. culture.

<@U02BKFX3R> I thought the same thing too.

<@U02BY23UR> I don’t think that I did.

CPD Officers 2nd Anniversary Story of 7/16

<@U02BKFX3R> I think this interview is new to me. You’ll recognize a lot of names and people. <https://newschannel9.com/news/local/cpd-officers-tell-their-story-of-responding-to-the-terror-attack-on-july-16>

<@U02BKFX3R> Sweetie, your name is mentioned in this old article: “... The awarding of the Purple Heart raises questions about the possibility of valor awards for displays of heroism at the scene. Two service members, including two service members -- a Marine and the NOSC commanding officer -- who returned fire on the shooter, Muhammad Abdulazeez.

Marines who were at the scene told Military Times in August that the actions of Lt. Cmdr. Timothy White, who waylaid the shooter by firing his personal weapon, gave the Marines inside the NOSC a chance to get more people to safety, saving lives.

The subject of valor awards for troops' actions during terror attacks has come up repeatedly since the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. The question came up again in wake of the foiled August attack on the French train, where Airman Spencer Stone's, Oregon National Guardsman Alek Skarlatos and a traveling companion stopped a lone gunman from carrying out an attack.”

“"This really is a worldwide threat situation," James said, adding that the entire military medals and awards system is "is being looked at right now within the Department of Defense. We're trying to think that through."

A Defense Department-wide review of the awards system has been conducted and the report is with Defense Secretary Ash Carter. The report was scheduled to be released this month, according to a Defense Department spokesman.

In a statement to Navy Times, Mabus spokesman Lt. Eric Durie said the secretary was waiting on the FBI determination to make a call on the Purple Heart.

"Part of the process in the case of Chattanooga is allowing the FBI's investigation to run its course. Once the FBI's detailed investigation is complete, and we have reviewed all applicable information, we will make our final award determination," Durie said.”

<@U02BKFX3R> U.S. Representatives Who Supported You

<http://hudson.house.gov/press-releases/hudson-defends-chattanooga-navy-commander/>

The article above came from this tweet. We had seen it before and liked the tweet.

<@U02BKFX3R> Have you seen this? <https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/2020/01/02/us/marines-bases-concealed-carry.amp.html|https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/2020/01/02/us/marines-bases-concealed-carry.amp.html>

<@U02BY23UR> How many shootings were there at Fort Hood?

<@U02BKFX3R> It’s showing two shootings — one in 2009 and the other in 2014.

<@U02BKFX3R> The motive in 2009 is marked as “Islamic extremism.” Major Nidal Malik Hasan killed 14 (including 1 unborn child) and injured more than 30 others.

<@U02BKFX3R> Yikes! “... Alshamrani posted anti-U.S. messages on social media about two hours before he opened fire in a classroom at Naval Air Station Pensacola on Dec. 6, killing three and wounding eight more before he was fatally shot, officials have said. He had been communicating with al Qaeda operatives shortly before the attack, but Mr. Wray said his communications and radicalization dated back to as early as 2015.

“The evidence we’ve been able to develop from the killer’s devices shows that the Pensacola attack was actually the brutal culmination of years of planning and preparation by a longtime [al Qaeda] associate,” Mr. Wray said.

The gunman described a desire to learn about flying years ago, about the same time he talked about attending the Saudi Air Force Academy in order to carry out what he described as a “special operation,” Mr. Wray said.”

<@U02BKFX3R> Someone on Facebook left this comment on the post for the article:
“Sherry Emerson here, I copy and pasted this for you...

A sailor based in Florida was arraigned Thursday in a military courtroom for making threats and unlawfully carrying a concealed and loaded handgun “at or near” his Jacksonville command, according to charge sheets obtained by Navy Times.
Aviation Machinist’s Mate 1st Class Craig William Goodwin also is accused of violating a lawful no-contact order by telephoning an unnamed woman on Oct. 23, plus several other charges.”

<@U02BY23UR> Who's Sherry Emerson? Is that the reporter that used to work for the Chattanooga Times Free Press?

<@U02BKFX3R> That doesn’t sound familiar at the moment? How come?

<@U02BKFX3R> Are you thinking of Shelly Bradbury?

<@U02BKFX3R> Oh, I see! Someone copied and pasted what this Sherry said.

<@U02BY23UR> Yes, I was thinking of Shelly Bradbury.

*Active Shooter at NAS Corpus Christi*
<@U02BY23UR> There was an active shooter at one of the NAS Corpus Christi this morning (around 0615). The shooter was “neutralized,” and I don’t think that anyone else was hurt. <https://www.facebook.com/NASCorpusChristi/>

<@U02BKFX3R> Oh wow! What a time! Thank you for letting me know. Do you know anyone who lives there?

<@U02BY23UR> Yes, I there’s a NOSC there, and I know the CO. I probably know others there too.

<@U02BY23UR> Corpus Christi was #3 on our list (Springfield, Pensacola, then Corpus).

<@U02BKFX3R> Wow! I can’t imagine what it’s like to be from there right now. Also, that’s really high on the list. God knew that we wouldn’t want to be there or Pensacola when there was an active shooter incident. It’s so sad that two has happened AND at two NAS locations in less than half a year with us missing them both.

<@U02BKFX3R> This USNI (Naval Institute) article is saying “Arab Male” in the title: <https://news.usni.org/2020/05/21/shooting-at-nas-corpus-christi-security-force-member-injured-shooter-neutralized>

<@U02BKFX3R> The FBI said today’s attack was terror related and that there is a “second person of interest may be at-large.” <https://abcnews.go.com/US/injured-shooting-naval-air-station-corpus-christi-suspected/story?id=70806888>

<@U02BKFX3R> Adam Salim Alsahli is the terrorist who was killed today while attacking NAS Corpus Christi. <https://www.kristv.com/news/local-news/fbi-nas-cc-attack-terrorism-related>

<@U02BKFX3R> We thought this would most likely happen one day and just spoke about it the other day. I hope they will take better measures and be more serious about security on and off installations especially of service members coming and going.

<@U02BKFX3R> I thought I was placing an emoji for the piano recital videos folder. I’m sorry about that. Thank you for sharing these with me! I’ll try to see if I can delete that emoji reaction from the desktop eventually.

<@U02BKFX3R> Wow! That was really well done! My heart was racing at a lot of the initial memories and way they presented it. I loved hearing you speak and share what you did! :sob::pray:
