14 Fort Hood Soldiers Fired Suspended Over Violence At Base

On Tuesday the Army said it has fired or suspended 14 officers and enlisted soldiers at Fort Hood, Texas.

New policy changes to address chronic failures of leadership that contributed to a widespread pattern of violence, including murder, sexual assault and harassment have also been ordered.

This comes after the death of a missing Fort Hood soldier, Vanessa Guillen, who gained national attention.
