We held our first SpouseBUZZ LIVE at Ft. Hood, and we have lots of friends stationed there. Way too early to know for sure what has happened and what is going on right now, but one thing we do know - this is a tragic day for all military families.
Our thoughts and prayers are with our brothers and sisters at Ft. Hood.
Update: The Killeen Daily Herald's Twitter feed is here. They have reporters on post.

Mine was supposed to be at Ft Hood in prep for deployment as well. 2 months ago they changed it to Ft Lewis.
My heart was in my chest until I spoke to him later this evening.
My tears go out to everyone affected by this man. My hugs go out to all MILFamilies as I'm sure we're all be shaken.

Words cannot express the sorrow I feel for these families. Those who have gone on and those still fighting for their lives. It is so sad this happened right in our country, on one of our bases. I'm praying for all of them.
Be blessed!
