by US Army Corps of Engineers, Omaha District on Tuesday, June 28, 2011 at 7:03pm Fort Thompson, S. D.—The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers will inspect the spillway structure at Big Bend Dam July 1. Spillway gates will close so that personnel can inspect the concrete apron, wing walls and dissipation pillars via boat. One of the tools that will be used during the inspection is a side scan sonar system since portions of the spillway structure are out of view, underwater, said Operations Project Manager Keith Fink. The purpose of the inspection is to assess the spillway’s performance after recent, prolonged water releases. The inspection should be completed July 1.

No way would a room full of Combat vets allow this one shooter to get off over 100 rounds! And, it is not normal for the outside security guards to be there. They are at the MP station, and at the main gates. This means the room full of soldiers processing must have been pinned down; multiple shooters is the only plausible scenario. this sounds like MAJ Hasan has been used, and perhaps is a patsy. --SFC Donald Buswell (Retired) * CNN: Over one hundred shots were fired in the attack. (Logic dictates that 'over one hundred shots' were not fired by a single individual, surrounded by military personnel and spe...
