Some gave some , others gave it all. May the gods bless the men and women in our military. We owed them our freedom , liberty and being the greatest nation in the world Icon of democracy globally.

Foreign military members have been training at NAS Pensacola for decades. You should be wondering why Florida has such lax firearms laws that allowed him to purchase the weapon in the first place.
Infiltration was a piece of cake; no one‘s allowed to carry guns. The sign at the gate brags it to everybody. No way to enforce it at the gate. So the only one that gets through with a gun is the crook. No one has a way of protecting themselves or anyone else.
I still don’t agree with allowing Saudi Arabian students to train at Naval Air Station Pensacola and Naval Air Station Whiting Field.
.It was an act of terrorism motivated by jihadist ideology. Let them train in their own country. I know these words will not change a damn thing, but I still have the freedom to say it..
Rest in Peace, Ensign Joshua Watson ,3rd Class Mohammed Haitham and, 3rd Class Cameron Walters. We will not forget…
Always remember! Praying for these families today!
Absolutely brilliant, how the terrorist managed to infiltrate the security at NAS.
Prayers for those who experienced loss in this tragedy.
