There seems to be a Trey Scott Atwater from Midland who was born in February 1981, making him a month shy of being 31 years old.\u00a0 News reports describe him as being from Hope Mills, NC – which is Fayetteville, the home of Fort Bragg, the home of the Green Berets. so that all lines up.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 One report says he has been serving in Afghanistan on several tours.<\/p>\n
He was returning to NC, which is a bit odd.\u00a0\u00a0 Perhaps whatever he was carrying was not caught as he was going to Texas or perhaps wasn’t as dangerous as it is being made to sound.<\/p>\n
