WOW, the base he was at seems to have tons of BAD Problems going on there
#1 base for suicide's....and much more at the above link
Hope someone can help, when he was caught and told authorites he was 2 different people, that no-one really knows me and etc..and then he was asked how long he had been 2 different people and he responded 14 years....Given the time he went into the army and up to that date would it not almost be exact to the time he 1st entered the army???
and from Lucky 1's post back on the geographic location, I'm sure he trained on lots of various grounds from highly wooded, almost desert type land, and high rocks...
I'm not trying to get off course here, but when I went in last evening and read some of Lucky1's posts..as I read some, it ran chills up my back.....there is something in the army time that truly bothers me in some WEIRD WAY....can't explain it yet, but have thought about the Why's How's a lot all last evening....Maybe I need some caffeine ...lol
Could the location in the base somehow be tied to all the murders believed to be in Washington State in some weird or odd way???.....Could he have trained in some of the WATER locations, therefore making it easy for him to travel via boat to several locations after he started murdering???...Just can't put my finger on why this bothered me so bad

Joint Base Lewis-McChord is a training and mobilization center for all services and is the only Army power-projection base west of the Rocky Mountains. Its geographic location provides rapid access to the deep water ports of Tacoma, Olympia and Seattle for deploying equipment. Units can be deployed from McChord Field, and individuals and small groups can also use nearby Sea-Tac Airport.
Also it says when this base was started in the early 1900's it took some of an Indian Tribe's land???....and it went to the Federal Government so they could start construction on the 1st base there
Could this perhaps been some of IK'S grandfather's, great grandfather's land and he somehow wanted revenge by the land being taken from this Indian Tribe??
IDK.....but it truly bothers me for some reason and I can't get the correct words to type as to how or why it bothers me.............Oh well maybe some more thinking and etc.
Fort Lewis was originally established in 1917 with the passage of a Pierce County bond measure to purchase 70,000 acres (280 km2) of land to donate to the federal government for permanent use as a military installation. A portion of the initial land was taken from the Nisqually tribe's reservation. In 1927, Pierce County passed another bond measure to establish a military airfield just north of Fort Lewis. The airfield, called Tacoma Field, opened in 1930 and was renamed McChord Field in 1940. McChord Field separated from Fort Lewis when the U.S. Air Force was created in 1947 and was subsequently renamed McChord Air Force Base. The two bases operated independently of one another for more than 60 years before merging in 2010.
