Air Force orders Spencer Stone placed in secure bunker for rest of enlistment

Filed · 1539

WASHINGTON — The Air Force's top general has ordered Airman 1st Class Spencer Stone to be placed into a secure bunker for the remainder of his enlistment, Duffel Blog has learned.

"We have to do everything in our power to protect this kid from sharp objects," Gen. Mark A. Welsh III told reporters in a briefing. "Lord knows what would happen if his supervisor decided to knife-hand him."

The Air Force medic is still recovering in a Sacramento hospital after being stabbed multiple times in the chest following an altercation outside of a local bar last week. The incident happened less than two months after he was stabbed by a terrorist in France.
