US defense secretary orders security review at military bases after Pensacola shooting
Mark Esper said he also instructed US armed forces to screen for foreign solders who come to the US for training
The defense secretary, Mark Esper, said he has instructed the US armed forces to review both security at military bases and screening for foreign soldiers who come to the US for training.
On Friday, a Saudi air force lieutenant killed three people and wounded eight at a navy base in Pensacola, Florida. On Fox News Sunday, Esper said he had asked top defense officials to “make sure we’re taking all necessary precautions” to make sure military installations were secure.
