The Alabama National Guard has
identified the soldier who was injured in the shooting rampage at
Fort Hood, Texas.
Guard officials said Friday that Maj. Randy Royer of the 135th
Expeditionary Sustainment Command was hurt. Lt. Col. Cynthia Bachus
said Royer is from south Alabama, but his hometown isn't clear.
There's a telephone number listed in Royer's name in Dothan.
Bachus says Royer is hospitalized with wounds that aren't
considered life-threatening. But he may require surgery.
About 260 members of the 135th are at Fort Hood awaiting
deployment to Afghanistan later this year. The group departed
Birmingham less than a week ago.
