Excerpts from article:
“Our thoughts are with the families of the victims and everyone involved,” said Rear Admiral Robert Chadwick, commander of Navy Region Hawaii. “This is certainly a tragedy for everyone here.”
He said it wasn’t immediately clear whether the gunman, a sailor assigned to the USS Columbia, knew the victims ― all shipyard employees ― or if the three were targeted at random.
In a message sent to shipyard employees, Shipyard Commander Capt. Greg Burton said in part, “I know that no words will convey the full measure of sorrow from today’s tragedy. This loss will be felt throughout our shipyard ‘Ohana, greater shipyard & NAVSEA family, submarine force, and the Navy as a whole.”
Family members and shipyard employees impacted by the tragedy are being offered counseling services. The base posted assistance information on social media. They also opened the Emergency Family Assistance Center at 4827 Bougainville Drive. It will remain open until further notice.
“Looking ahead, we will honor the life and legacy of those lost. Even now, as we mourn the loss of members of our ‘Ohana, please take the opportunity to reconnect with each other and to reinforce and strengthen the bonds with each other. We value each one of you deeply and we are here for you,” Capt. Burton added.
