Service members are issued weapons to fight the enemy and to defend themselves if a threatening situation may arise. Over the last few years many service members have died or have been injured in acts of violence and terrorism against military members within American soil and American military posts/bases. The threats have become too common within our own installations that we must allow our military members to carry their personal weapons as another form of protection and safety. The service member must have a legal permit/license to carry their weapon if the state/country they are stationed in requires it. The effectiveness and speed at which they can react can prevent future problems like this arising in and around military installations and homes.
