Nidal Hasan <\/p>\nNidal Hasan <\/p>\n
Tuesday, November 5, 2019, marks the 10 year anniversary of the shocking Fort Hood shooting, where Major Nidal Hasan killed 13 unarmed soldiers and left more than 30 wounded.<\/p>\n
On August 23, 2013, Hasan was convicted on 13 counts of murder and 32 counts of attempted murder. Five days later, he was sentenced to death by a 13-member military jury, the same jury that convicted him of the crimes. He is one of four death row inmates in the military justice system.<\/p>\n
Author: Reagan Roy <\/strong> Below are the names of the 13 victims who lost their lives. They are listed from oldest to youngest.<\/p>\n IN REMEMBRANCE:<\/p>\n Michael Grant Cahill John P. Gaffaney Juanita L. Warman Libardo Eduardo Caraveo Russell Gilbert Seager Justin Michael DeCrow Frederick Greene Amy Sue Krueger Kham See Xiong Michael S. Pearson Jason Dean Hunt Francheska Velez (Was pregnant at the time of the massacre) Aaron Thomas Nemelka On Tuesday, October 29, Vice President Mike Pence visited with soldiers, veterans and their families.Topics discussed included the death of ISIS leader Abu Baku al-Baghdadi, America\u2019s commitment to take on terrorist organizations, the 10-year anniversary of the Fort Hood shooting, announcement of new equipment coming to Fort Hood and America\u2019s commitment to its armed forces. <\/p>\n “And as the nation will pause to remember next week, 10 years ago, on November 5, terror struck at the heart of this base when a former Army psychiatrist opened fire inside the Soldier Readiness Center, claiming the lives of 13 extraordinary Americans,” Vice President Pence said. “When I arrived last night, I stopped and paid my respects at the Fort Hood November 5 Memorial. I walked by the columns dedicated \u2014 each individual one \u2014 to the 13 men and women who fell that day. And I was deeply moved \u2014 moved by the tributes to all of those that were lost. Like Staff Sergeant Amy Krueger, who was preparing for a tour of duty in Afghanistan before that fateful day. Or Specialist Jason Dean Hunt, who had just gotten married two months before. Or Private Francheska Velez, who had just returned from a tour of duty in Iraq and was expecting her first child. You know, the Bible tells us to mourn with those who mourn, and grieve with those who grieve. But we do not grieve like the rest who have no hope, for our faith gives us hope and heroes give us hope. And as the 10th anniversary of that terrible day approaches next week, let me say, on behalf of the American people, to the families of our fallen and all you brothers- and sisters-in-arms: The American people are with you, and this nation will never forget or fail to honor the service and sacrifice of our heroes who fell on November 5, 2009. That is my solemn pledge. They and their families will remain in our prayers.”\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Fair winds and following seas.<\/p>\n The entire article may be viewed here: CBS 19 TV<\/a><\/p>\n Thanks to one of our ninjas for the reminder.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
