As much as it pains me. IMO, the FBI is close on this one. More like someone disgruntle against the Military as a whole. Marine Museum has a lot of cover around it. Maybe not a Marine target but just Military Target. Pentagon would be easy also.

Holly,

I think we need more "disgruntled Marines" in the MSM. They have a quaint way of policing their own, and I don't think they'd let random speculation like that last for long.

Like that would narrow it down any ...

Scene, a formation at Quantico, VA:

CAPT: "OK, all Marines who are gruntled, step forward.
You still in the back row, report to the FBI."

FBI: Gunfire at Virginia recruiting center linked to other incidents
By the CNN Wire Staff
November 4, 2010 2:24 p.m. EDT

Washington (CNN) -- Ballistic tests have linked a shooting at a Coast Guard recruiting office in Virginia to four other shootings at military facilities last month, the FBI said Wednesday.

FBI spokesman Andrew Ames provided no other immediate details.

The latest incident was reported Tuesday morning after a bullet struck the recruiting office, housed in a Woodbridge strip mall.

The description was "relatively similar" to October cases in which shots were fired at the Pentagon, the National Museum of the Marine Corps and a vacant Marine recruiting station, said 1st Sgt. Kim Chinn, spokeswoman for Prince William County police.

"Employees of the Coast Guard recruiting station called to tell us there was some damage to the glass, and police arrived and determined it was probably done by a bullet," Chinn said.

No one has been injured in any of the incidents, including when six shots were fired at the Pentagon early on October 19.

Ballistics tests connected the Pentagon gunfire to shots aimed at the Marine museum on October 17 and 29, as well as to an October 25 case in which shots were fired at a Marine Corps recruiting station in Chantilly, near Washington Dulles International Airport.

Chinn would not say how many bullets were found at the scene Tuesday. The Coast Guard referred questions to the FBI, saying it is taking the lead in the investigation.

The Pentagon Force Protection Agency declined comment on the shooting.

Funny how they're not looking for a disgruntled civilian who was rejected by the military.
