They are armed when they need to be. When on Watch, When Deployed, or when required for training. The National guard has them when they are deployed to an area as you have seen Ken.
When they are just working at the base or just hanging on base they don't carry them and they are checked into the armory.
There are a lot of people on an army base that are strictly in Administrative roles or Medical/Corpman roles. they don't sit at desks with sidearms.
also remember this guy was one of them, a Major that was in for years, that was also one of their psychiatrists...even if everyone that was standing there was armed to the teeth, when this guy just decides to arbitrarily start firing...there are going to be casualties. These guys weren't on field ops in Iraq and geared up for something to happen....they were comfortably back home on an army base in Texas, surrounded by people they knew.....This is just a tragedy.
