According to the FBI, the incredible acts of heroism by the NASCC Military Policewoman guarding the entrance to the base, saved many lives yesterday. The active-duty U.S. Navy military policewoman at the Ocean Drive gate has probably checked thousands of IDs and allowed access to thousands of authorized people at NAS Corpus Christi.
But yesterday morning, at barely the first light of day, a terrorist tried to get past her. That terrorist, Adam Salem Alsahli (a Syrian born U.S. citizen), picked the wrong gate guard to try to get past. He must’ve thought that all he would have to do is lift the pistol off of his lap, point it at the gate guard (while she looked him in the face) shoot her point-blank in the chest and then be able to drive on to the base and use his assault rifle and shotgun to kill as many people as he could.
He sure was wrong!
She took the bullet dead center in her chest, but that happens to be the area of the bullet-resistant Kevlar vest, which has a steel, ceramic-coated plate over center mass to protect the heart and vital organs.
Yes, no doubt the impact knocked her down to the floor, but she got right back up and hit the emergency button that activated a very strong pop up barricade, which stopped and disabled the terrorist’s vehicle. Then, as he was getting his assault rifle out of his car, she shot him to death.
He was connected to Jihadist groups in the Middle East and May have acted yesterday, in response to the FBI’s announcement on Monday in regard to the terrorist attack back some months ago at NAS Pensacola, which like NASCC, is a major training base for military pilots.
FBI credits the NAS MP, who stopped the Terrorist from mass murder on Naval Air Station CC. For her heroic, life-saving actions, that U.S. Navy Military Policewoman should get not only the Purple Heart, but also the highest military accommodation that can be applied to this case of domestic terrorism.

if a man speaks, and there isn't a woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?

She is a "sailor" or better yet "shipmate" in Navy parlance, not a soldier.  Also, she is not an MP, but a SP (Shore Patrol)

It's terrorism so she deserved a combat award. Those vests are great. With the ceramic insert they are rated to stop AR/AK rounds.

Good on her, but I don’t think they should have released all the details they did.
You can bet the next radicalized raghead will know not to shoot for the chest. It was a surprise attack and he could just as easily shot her in the head.
This is not to take away from what she did at all. She deserves the applause of a grateful nation. They just shouldn’t make it easier for the jihadis. Loose lips sink ships.

This is 100% true, & no real need to publish that info, but she did better than good for sure & I hope she get a Navy Cross. MM

I agree they told way too much. Be Well, Rustyzipper.
