Spencer Stone, Paris train hero, stabbed

| October 8, 2015

Spencer Stone

Chief Tango sends us a link to NBC News which reports that Spencer Stone, one of the three Americans on the train to Paris who stopped a jihadist from killing a number of Europeans a few weeks ago, was stabbed outside a club in Sacramento, California.

Airman First Class Stone was in stable condition on Thursday, an Air Force spokesperson said.

“He is alive and in stable condition at this time,” the spokesperson said. “We do not have any information as to the events preceding the incident.”

Stone was stabbed multiple times in the torso after a fight near some popular bars in downtown Sacramento, police said, according to NBC affiliate KCRA.

If Spencer Stone has 9 lives, well, there went 2 of them.
Damn.

Is it coincidental that the school that Alex Skarlotos attended was attacked and less than a week later Spencer Stone was stabbed?

CLAW131

Nope, I don’t think so. (see Gibb’s Rule #39)

There is more to this than meets the eye.

You’re onto something, but better minds than mine will have to figure it out.

Veritas Omnia Vincit

Maybe he ought to drink at home for a few days….

Wish you a speedy recovery young man!!

I work with a few senior AF NCOs and about 95 percent are not all that happy about mr stone jumping two ranks up to a NCO rank. this maybe the reason. not quite ready for the responsibility?????

Old AF Sarge

Concur.

ChipNASA

Technically he’s not jumping two ranks…..
As has been explained before, he’s due to sew on SrA (E-4) either this month or in November and then he was going to be STEP promoted to SSgt (E-5). That being said, if he has not completed the Airman Leadership School (ALS)which all Senior airmen with 48 months time in service or those with a promotion line number for Staff sergeant, must complete, then I would think he should complete it.

Skippy

yeh I know Chip Lol….
the NCOs I work with don’t see it that way and this story is case in point..

OldManchu

good grief

Skippy

Good Grief ???
Bhwhahahaha !!!!!!!
At least I’m talking on a good point about leadership
And not one of these tin foil fruit loops that think some kind of government conspiracy is at play Lol….
I’ve been hearing it all day..

OldManchu

Good point. I didn’t even think about the conspiracies that will fly around this. I need to go read some for laughs. Thanks.

Skippy

yeah it’s getting out of control fast. I woke up this morning read two articles before jumping on here and I lost my waffles. 🙂
it’s like they should find out basic facts first.
before putting on the foil hats LMAO ! ! !

PavePusher

It has been previously reported that he WILL have t attend ALS.

PavePusher

You assume he was at fault. Got evidence for that?

Skippy

no I don’t think that at all just a lot of senior AF NCOs I work with think that I’m retired army and I could care less. 🙂

Not a lot of details in either story except that the incident occurred at 12:45 a.m.

It’s a pretty good rule of thumb that nothing good happens after midnight.

Aw, hell, I’d pay to see some of the shit most of us got into when we were young and stupider. In fact, if a guy over 30 were to tell me that he never drank too much and tore up a bar floor or rolled around a parking lot, I’d deduct 10 points from his man score.

Nothing!

That includes … the internet!

The only thing I care about on the internet that happens after midnight are the west coast baseball scores.

CAARNG 68W

Wait Doc; does that include one-night stands too?

Dave Hardin

The guy is a walking vortex, he draws the violent intentions of people directly at him. If the guy sits down next to me at Waffle House I am probably going to give him a little space.

Someone better check his Algorithm.

Well, unlike Slick Willy he did own up to the fact that he definitely inhaled. (smile)

How many times I gotta tell you, stay outta bars?

DefendUSA

Holy Cow. I could not believe I just read this!! WTF is going on?

I wish Spencer Stone a speedy recovery and hope they have caught the perp.

From stories I’m reading here and there, it seems to have happened outside a bar on a street corner by anywhere from two to a group of half-a-dozen (or so) Asians.

A drunken bar brawl? Or a targeted muzzie revenge attack for the Paris train incident? Enquiring minds, and all that. . . . .

Tom Huxton

Ya, well…. where is your kevlar vest when you really need it? Do not leave the bar with people you do not know, just go directly to the cab and leave. (If you drink and drive, you are too stupid to do either.)

John D

Kevlar won’t stop a knife.

Won’t even slow it down in a stabbing attack.

Pinto Nag

Slow down a little, Spencer. We’d like you to live long enough to add your genes to the pool.

Green Thumb

Glad he is okay.

Could be a lot worse.

At the FREE NORTH CAROLINA web site, there is a link to a report by THE GATEWAY PUNDIT web site, which says, Airman Stone was stabbed four (04) times in his chest by at least two (02) Asian youths, while attempting to protect a friend from attack by a gang of Asian youths.

Initially, homicide detectives were called, because police did not expect Airman Stone to survive.

Even now, there are conflicting (unconfirmed?) reports that Airman Stone is currently in critical condition.

Police are seeking the two (02) Asian suspects.

SAC news has confirmed listing as critical.

The video online shows the attack and him beating down the attackers.

As the Asian cowards fled the scene of the crime, video shows blood soaked shirt of the Airman.

He bled quickly and in quantity. Reports say he did sustain injuries to his left lung and heart.

Let’s hope his recent injury plussed up his on board liquid volume. Tramatic injury tends to do that in recovery and post recovery stage. It is a natural form of doping.

….On the other hand:

*1 member of the Train Trio was supposed to be at the Oregon CC that got shot up.
*Another, A1C Stone, is stabbed in a slightly inexplicable fight.

If I was the third guy, I’d be watching my back.

There was a video of the attack on the news. They mobbed him and then ran.

The local news (San Diego) is reporting that he is stable and expected to survive, thank God. I saw that the Prime Minister of Belgium awarded them each a valor medal of some type this weekend. Its posted on the New York consulate Face Book page for the Belgian Embassy. My question to you uniform pros: can these young men wear these foreign awards on their service and dress uniforms? Honest question. Thanks!

…can these young men wear these foreign awards on their service and dress uniforms?

Almost certainly-here’s a useful list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Authorized_foreign_decorations_of_the_United_States_military

Patricia

Thanks!

chuckle

yes. there is even a protocol which shows when and which awards shall preceed or follow american awards when worn on the uniform
