The police didn't give him the drugs that killed him.Law enforcement officers operate under an entirely different set of ROEs. Everyone they deal with has equal rights under the law. Use of force is strictly supervised. Just ask George Floyd.

I was stationed at Camp Lejeune the entire time. I did go to 29 Palms a couple of times for a CAX. We liked the tanks at 29 Palms. They had the engine governors removed. You could get an M60 to 35 or 40 mph. However, they were extremely difficult to steer at those speeds.Thank you for your service.
Did you rotate through Palms or Pendleton?
My Thing 2 was at Palms when the Tanks left a few years ago.
I was in from 1985-1989. Yes, the 1911's were really old. Mine looked like it had been carried in WWII, Korea and Vietnam. The bore was dark(corrosive primers in WWII), it was really loose and generally didn't hit where I was aiming.I had a unique experience. I was USAF Security Police/Security Forces. My first issued sidearm was a S&W Model 15 Revolver 38 special at the school we also had some Navy/USMC MA and MPs along with some British troops. At the training area I saw M15’s 1911a1’s (they did look really old) and Browning Hi Powers (this was in 1986)
I remember someone saying (I reference to the 1911) look that thing doesn’t look like they have sights how do they aim! LOL we got spoiled by our nice S&W adjustable sights!
He enjoyed Palms for the most part, he was a 0352 in a LAV. He had loads of fun in the back ranges at Palms during exercises and range time.I was stationed at Camp Lejeune the entire time.
