Not an 18A. Reads to me as if he was an SF qualified NCO that commissioned into the medical field.

Sad story either way.

I changed the thread title. I also read it like blue02hd does.

Tim Jordan
 

I worked with 18D SSG Tim Jordan back at the old MedLab (behind the gas station) back in 1987. I looked at the photo, that's him.

This article (last paragraph) explains that he was an 18B, and later a medic. Not clear whether he was 18D, or commissioned, or recieved his MD following his service, and it is not my business. Just providing the additional link.

Very sad to hear...Tim was an instructor with me at MedLab. I remember how happy he was when he got accepted to Med School. A great guy to work with. WTF

Timothy Jorden, Jr.
 

All, Timothy Jorden, Jr. was in fact a former Special Forces soldier for over ten years.

We're not going to speculate on what may have caused Tim Jordan to do what he did, that is for a court of law to determine.

We hope that Tim Jordan now does the right thing and surrenders to law enforcement.

Well if he needs a brother to walk in with him, I am right here to his north.

When I said we're not going to speculate I meant it. Not her and not on this board. The only "facts" are being "reported", and those are usually not facts.

If you're not a Special Forces soldier feel free not to post on this thread.

Now, federal authorities are on alert should he try to cross into Canada. Jorden has connections north of the border and could be hiding almost anywhere, the Buffalo News reported.

Sad for everyone involved...
 

We called him "Air Jorden" when he was cadre at C co. in 87. Dude had the longest friggin stride with a rucksack. My 5'9" ass had to jog to keep up with him. Breaking news is that a person in scrubs was found behind his home this morning with a self inflicted gunshot wound.

Tim Jordan dead of self-inflicted GSW
 

Rest in peace brother. You were a huge inspiration as well as a source of fear for me when I was in C Company. I don't care what happened that led you to this You were a rock hard dude and an example of what I wanted to be and do with my life...

Sad end to a sad story. :(

And so it goes...

RIP Doc. Sorry it came to this.
