ROTC students at Old Dominion University are still trying to come to terms with Thursday's shocking attack that claimed the life of their instructor and wounded two others. A student opened fire in an ROTC classroom, killing Lt. Col. Brandon Shah and injuring two people before the situation was brought under control. The tragedy has left the military training program and the entire ODU community shaken. Students who were there say they're struggling to process what happened in what should have been a safe learning environment. Now, local veteran organizations are stepping up to offer support to these young people who witnessed something no student should ever have to see. These groups understand the unique challenges facing ROTC students, who are training to serve their country and look up to instructors like Lt. Col. Shah as mentors and role models. The support comes at a crucial time as students try to heal from this traumatic event while continuing their military training and academic studies. Details about counseling services and how students can access help are still being worked out between the veteran organizations and the university.
