Lol, I’ve heard that young guys in S.FL must use buddy system anywhere even near a Blue Martini bar.

Anderson responded to the attack by avoiding eye contact, yelling loudly to scare the creature away, and eventually pretending to be gay, as he learned to do in SERE school.

He should have poured wine down her throat and spanked her until she purred.

Sounds like local law enforcement have a grasp on how to lure it back with bait. It's always sad to see the situation get this point though. If only Soldiers would have more Situational Awareness while "Safely Back Home", all of this might be avoided... Maybe they can return the beast to the wild? Get it out away from populated areas?

The really dangerous cougars were usually found at the Firefly Lounge.

True, and a blast from the past.
Dangerous for young soldiers, there were packs of cougars there.
