The center for Air Force basic training is still reporting a significant number of recruits with adenovirus serotype 14, but the number has come down from earlier this year, reports the San Antonio Express-News. The new strain killed one airman, who had just graduated from basic, earlier this year and another eight people in Oregon, Texas, and Washington, according to a recent report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Officials at Lackland do not attribute the situation to anything other than Mother Nature.
Airman 1st Class Marcus White-Allen concocted a story to cover up that he fired his M18 9mm pistol into Airman Braden Lovan’s chest, killing him on July 20, two Airmen from F.E. Warren Air Force Base, Wyo., testified during separate courts martial proceedings on Oct. 30-31.
