re: #99 Wendell Zurkowitz ((slave to the waffle light))

I remember hearing on AFN that it is Army policy that servicemen with a history of domestic violence are not allowed to carry sidearms in housing areas.

They can drive tanks, fire cannons or launch missiles, just not carry a pistol…

There are lapses, but if everyone is doing their job the ammunition for those systems is very tightly controlled. (Despite a lot of RW bull, weapons on base have been very tightly regulated since well before I went in, in the 1960s.)
