Have searched the "news" about the explosion at Ft. Bragg. It apparently happened on one of the ranges near where my Grandson was working. Last count was 4 dead and several more wounded. Only way we have heard about this is that Nate called to tell family that he was OK, not hurt. Wonder why no news reports about this.

It's in the NC news. Very unfortunate  Limited info: "The Fayetteville Observer 1 soldier killed, 7 injured during demolition training on Fort Bragg By Drew Brooks Military editor Posted Sep 14, 2017 at 11:50 AM Updated Sep 14, 2017 at 9:16 PM One soldier was killed and seven others were injured during training Thursday on Fort Bragg. Staff Sgt. Alexander P. Dalida, 32, of Dunstable, Massachusetts, died during the demolition training that was part of the Special Forces Qualification Course, according to U.S. Army Special Operations Command. The cause of death is under investigation." More at link http://www.fayobserver.com/new...aining-on-fort-bragg Knowing what one is talking about is widely admired but not strictly required here.

Yeah, I found some "headlines" and crap stories about it. Nate called his mom and wife to let them know that he had not been hurt. The incident was apparently further down the line from where he was.

I sincerely hope not. I used to teach such courses. I'll have to do some digging. ________________________________________ -- Fear is the mind-killer.
