Update: Vitals.com just checked the ratings logs and the below comment came in at 5:30pm EST, while the shooting was at 4:30pm EST and we suspect this comment by Pvt J. Hammond maybe fictitious. Thanks to our readers for pointing out the impossibilities of his comments.

The following comment was written earlier today on Vitals.com by someone calling himself Pvt J. Hammond.

“Although he was hard to understand (strong accent) this doctor helped me come to terms with my conscientious objector status.While I am still not thrilled about being deployed to Iraq, I at least understand how doing so to protect my fellow soldiers is a good thing.”
