Have you/do you know anybody who has killed somebody?

When I was stationed at Tyndall AFB our unit had a big "assessment" done and I was the rep for my work center.  Col Charles May was the guy the USAF brought in to be in charge of it.  He killed 26 in a friendly fire incident in Iraq in 1994.

A former co-worker's dad murdered a judge in the 70s.

I did some work at Tyndall in the early 90's, part of the team that developed the ground control system for QF-100 drones that were flown out of there as targets for missile tests.  It was a very interesting project.

Regarding the thread question, I'm in the group that has known people who have killed in combat.  No others that I know of.

Yeah, that's a cool project.  Unfortunately I was doing maintenance on the old ass computers operating at SEADS (which I just learned closed in 2006).  I had a niece learn to be an Air Traffic Controller at Tyndall 5 or 6 years ago (or rather, that was her first duty station after school).

I hope they let you try out the beaches on base, they've got 10-15 miles of surprisingly good beaches that are usually empty, but even if there is a few dozen strangers, you don't have to walk very far to be free of them.

It's a near certainty that I know someone who has had an abortion, so I suppose I know someone who has committed murder. I know several people who have killed people at war.
