Here's a letter I wrote to the Senate:
Dear Senator,
I'm so glad that you have continued to write me from time to time. It's good to know that elected officials actually listen. I'm ex-military and am concerned about our dear men and women in the armed forces. Especially after the recent incident at Ft.Hood.
In my opinion the gravity of this incident should dictate that you really focus on it and subordinate any other activity that you are currently engaged in. We need increased security at our military bases immediately. I used to train security computer operators at nuclear sites. I think that our military should be entitled possess at the minimum equal to or greater than the same level security system. If enemies are able to infiltrate our military with this much ease, where does it stop? We must push back! At least steps in the right direction will help to deter.
We need to control ingress and egress. We should secure perimeters with e-fields and micro-waves. Prior to being able to carry a weapon at the nuclear site we also had to pass strict pyschological exams. This should be implemented in the military immediately with emphasis on identifing enemy combatant profiles.
If you want to make a real impact on the hearts of the American people you will stop everything and elevate this issue to the top of your agenda. You have my support and the support of what's right!
Thanks for your attention to this matter.
God Bless your efforts!
