Was already posted further up, anyway some of this investigation will come down to who knew what and when regarding the fire. I do hope this was all tragic accident and not a case of negligence on someone's part.

I will plead to my fellow soldiers and ex-soldiers, please do not feed the media machine. They need stories on slow days and have used the military time and time again for digging up dirt where there wasn't any.

I am asking you, pleading with you. Trust the BOI and the process. I have been involved with BOIs before, they work. They provide answers. They have a lot of legal power backing them up.

I agree with Infanteer's views on training risk.
