On 20 June 1994, a former airman sought vengeance with a rifle at the Fairchild Air Force Base hospital.

Four days later a rogue pilot crashed a B-52 bomber during an air-show practice flight.

Both tragedies had been predicted and repeatedly warned about.

The base psychiatrist knew the airman was dangerous.
"This is the kind of patient who ... one day ... he's going to come back and kill you."
Aircrews knew the rogue pilot was dangerous.
"We predicted the worst air-show disaster in history when we found out that he was gonna fly."

Have you ever heard someone say that a tragedy struck without warning?

Read Warnings Unheeded and see the precursors of violence and tragedy in this page-turning true story of mental illness, mass murder and aviation disaster.

"In vivid and thoroughly researched detail, Andy Brown masterfully weaves two tragic stories ... this is an important and well-written read."
Gregory K. Moffatt, Ph.D., Author of Blind-Sided: Homicide Where it is Least Expected

On 20 June 1994, a former airman sought vengeance with a rifle at the Fairchild Air Force Base hospital. Four days later a rogue pilot crashed a B-52 outside of Fairchild's Nuclear Weapon Storage Area. Both tragedies had been predicted and repeatedly warned about.

Warnings Unheeded is a rare look inside the troubled mind of a would-be active shooter. It is an exclusive look at a talented pilot whose dangerous flying prompted aircrews to refuse to fly with him. It is a look at the leadership culture that allowed both men to travel unchecked on the pathway toward destruction.

This unique true-crime book reads like a suspense novel, densely packed with details garnered from medical records, police reports and first-hand accounts obtained from journal entries, letters, witness statements and personal interviews. These empowering stories detail the heroic response to the tragedies, the events that lead up to them, the precursors of violence and disaster and the traumatic aftermath.

Written by Andy Brown, the man who ended the hospital killing spree. Brown's narrative focuses mainly on others, including the heroic life-saving actions of hospital patrons and staff, but he also describes the preparations he made which enabled him to win a pistol-versus-rifle gunfight as well as his own experience with the effects of trauma.

"An amazing book. An instant classic. Staff Sergeant Brown is a true guardian who saved countless lives with supernatural marksmanship skill in a moment of great need, but he has also proven himself to be a true warrior-wordsmith who will save even more lives, as the lessons from this book are learned and applied in our current violent times. Absolutely "required reading" for law enforcement and mental health professionals, but also profoundly valuable for anyone who wants to understand violence and mental illness in our society today."
Lt Col Dave Grossman (US Army, retired)
Author of On Combat, On Killing, and Assassination Generation


"There are specific lessons in this book that can help us to prevent lethal tragedy. Lessons for bosses, subordinates, and coworkers. Lessons for law enforcement, and for psychologists, and for human resources personnel. But there are also general lessons for all of us that can save lives, though perhaps not so dramatically nor so heroically as Andy Brown saving uncounted lives when he 'rode to the sound of the guns.'"
From the Foreword written by Massad Ayoob

Great quality, comfy fit, and perfect for active toddlers
Size: 8 Wide Toddler, Color: White, Size: 8 Wide Toddler, Color: White
These toddler sandals are very well made and feel high-quality right out of the box. The material looks like leather and has a smooth, slightly matte finish. It feels soft to the touch, doesn’t rub the skin, and at the same time seems durable enough for everyday wear. The sole is sturdy with good grip, and overall the materials used feel reliable and easy to clean. The wide toe box gives plenty of room for natural movement, and the fit is true to size. They stay securely on the foot, and the adjustable straps make them very easy to put on and take off, even with a wiggly toddler. They are lightweight and flexible, so they don’t restrict movement and are comfortable for all-day wear. The sole provides a good balance of flexibility and grip, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Overall, a great combination of quality, comfort, and practicality — highly recommend!

Great Sandals for Toddlers
Size: 6 Wide Toddler, Color: Brown
I love this brand of shoes, all the shoes are very flexible and easy to get on my toddler. They've help up well for us and should easily last to the next kid, if not more beyond as well. These shoes are cute and great gender neutral sandals that don't break the bank for the quality. My son loves them too, and he is very ready to make his opinions known.

Cute but runs big and made for high volume feet
Size: 8 Wide Toddler, Color: Brown
Cute shoes, otherwise they would only get 3 stars. Do not recommend using the size chart. I used the size chart and tried to measure carefully, yet the first ones we got were literally several sizes too large for my daughter. I returned them and sized down 2 sizes, and they are workable but still on the big side. Beware. They are also extremely high volume. If my daughter wears them barefoot, there is quite a gap between her foot and the top of the sandal. If she wears socks, especially her thick winter socks, it’s closer to a decent fit. Again, beware. I would buy again…not sure. My daughter is very fond of them, and that says a lot. She’s three and has very strong opinions about things😅
