14,000 rounds of ammunition missing from Fort Bragg

 Authorities are trying to find 14,000 rounds of ammunition missing from Fort Bragg in North Carolina.
The ammunition went missing from the 1st Brigade Combat Team at Fort Bragg, said Staff Sgt. Joshua Ford.
The missing ammunition can be used in the M-4 and M-16 assault rifles.
Someone alerted Fort Bragg leadership about the missing items on Wednesday, Ford said.
After the report, the 1st Brigade team, about 3,500 people, was placed on lockdown during an initial investigation, Ford said.
The ammunition was not found and the lockdown was lifted Wednesday night.
"The incident is currently under investigation and all appropriate measures are being taken to locate the small arms ammunition that was discovered missing on Wednesday," said Lt. Col David Connolly, a spokesman for the 82nd Airborne Division.

If you were a victims of the Ft Bragg mess... where a really odd number of deaths occurred and there were real Qs about a second shooter (which would obviouslybe a coverup)...

Then yes, that much govt ammo missing is kinda a big deal.

Believe me, if 50 baby seals were clubbed to pieces at a DNC fundraiser, and there were a dozen seal clubs missing from the white house, you'd have already made this connection

I was going to ask what do you think is going to happen holding that much ammo but then I saw your avatar.

Yeah...there are a million ways this could happen. Guys could be at a range and forget a case etc. This stuff is usually not stored anywhere near weapons nor is the ammo readily available to soldiers. Its stored at an AHA...or ammo holding area where units will store ammo that will be used within a week or so. Its also held at a bigger storage area run by contractors. Its really not alot of ammo...enough for a qual range with a company or so of guys.

This got out because they got locked down on Friday and a wife I'm sure called the media.
