DefendUSA sends us a link to an article in the Associated Press<\/a> that reports that one soldier testified that he was ordered by his NCO to delete the video on his cell phone of Nidal Hasan on his shooting spree. <\/p>\n

Under cross examination, Pfc. Lance Aviles told an Article 32 hearing that his noncommissioned officer ordered him to destroy the two videos on Nov. 5, the same day that a gunman unleashed a volley of bullets inside a processing center at the Texas Army post.<\/p>\n

The footage could have been vital evidence at the military hearing to decide if Maj. Nidal Hasan should stand trial in the shootings. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

No, I don’t blame the NCO for doing what he probably thought was right at the time. We already know that the Army began this whole thing by telling us Hasan was dead. I don’t know why they did it, and I won’t speculate, but the young NCO’s thoughts were probably running along the same track. I’m sure that if the Army really wanted the video to convict Hasan, they could get it from Aviles’ phone. We all know that nothing is really deleted if the authorities really want it. <\/p>\n

I’ve noticed that a couple of the victims from that are deployed despite this act of terrorism;<\/p>\n

A defense lawyer asked [Spc. Megan] Martin if the tragedy could have prevented her from deploying to a combat zone.<\/p>\n

“I did not want to be removed from deployment. I wanted to carry on with the mission, sir, as my fallen soldiers would want me to.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Hoo-ah! Terrorism doesn’t work on those closest to the fight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
