An army Major who was a psychiatrist treating post
traumatic stress in soldiers returning from Iraq and
Afghanistan killed 13 and wounded 30 at Fort Hood, Texas, in
a one-man massacre, Nov 6 2009.
Chuck Medley, director of emergency services at the Army
post, said at a press conference that the first call of shots being fired
came at 2:22 p.m. ET (19:22:51 GMT) and that
civilian officer Sgt. Kimberly Munley arrived at the scene five
minutes later to find Hasan chasing and firing at a soldier
outside the readiness building.
Hasan, a U.S. citizen born in Virginia to Palestinian parents, was wounded
by a civilian police officer who responded to the shooting rampage that is
believed to be the worst ever at a U.S. military installation, said Lt.
Gen. Robert Cone, commanding general of Fort Hood.

The GCP event was set for a little more than an hour before
the shooting began, 18:00 GMT, to 24:00, a total of 6 hours.
The result is 21699 on 21600 df, for p = 0.315 and Z =
0.481.
It is important to keep in mind that we have only a tiny
statistical
effect, so that it is always hard to distinguish signal from
noise. This means that every "success" might be largely
driven by chance, and every "null" might include a real
signal overwhelmed by noise. In the long run, a real effect
can
be identified only by patiently accumulating replications of
similar analyses.
