  1. First off, this is obviously tragic and I’d like to express my condolences to his family and friends.

    Second, I really wonder… HOW was a fully loaded weapon in the vehicle? During maneuvers, you wouldn’t have ammunition to begin with. If you had some shooting exercise, weapons and magazines would be controlled to make sure they’re empty before you leave the place. And if you’d be on guard duty with ammunition, there would most certainly not be a bullet in the chamber. And last but not least, the gun should be secured. So how could this possibly happen?!? I assume once they find out, there will be some consequences for the people responsible.
