REPORT OF THE FORT HOOD INDEPENDENT REVIEW COMMITTEE
Report of the Fort Hood Independent Review Committee Page iii of ix
contributed very little analysis, feedback and general situational awareness to the command toward
facilitating and enabling such actions. This was another missed opportunity.
The deficient climate also extended into the missing Soldier scenarios, where no one
recognized the slippage in accountability procedures and unwillingness or lack of ability of noncommissioned
officers (NCOs) to keep track of their subordinates. The absence of any formal
protocols for Soldiers who fail to report resulted in an ad hoc approach by units and Military Police
(MP) to effectively address instances of missing Soldiers during the critical first 24 hours, again with
adverse consequences.
