Fort Hood shooting survivors still haunted by attack 16 years later

BELL COUNTY, Texas — Fort Hood shooting survivors share their haunting memories 16 years after the attack that killed 13 people, while fighting for terrorism classification.

16 years later, survivors still haunted: Dr. Kathy Platoni and Dr. Alan Hopewell share their traumatic memories from November 5, 2009, when Army psychiatrist Nidal Hasan killed 13 people and injured 32 others at Fort Hood.

Fighting for terrorism classification: Survivors continue battling to reclassify the massacre from "workplace violence" to an "act of terrorism" to secure proper benefits for the wounded and families of the fallen.

Dr. Platoni wears a hero bracelet with the names of her fallen unit members - Major Eduardo Caraveo, Captain John Gaffaney, and Staff Sergeant Amy Krueger - that she never takes off.
