A Halloween costume at North Carolina’s Fort Bragg created an emergency situation after a soldier tried to enter the military base dressed as a suicide bomber.The costume caused the gate to be cleared and a visit from an explosive ordnance disposal team.

The costume included a simulated explosive vest, which is a no-no on base.A statement from the base spokesperson said, “Costumes of this sort are not allowed on Fort Bragg. The senior commander of Fort Bragg further directs that soldiers not wear costumes of this sort off post and strongly encourages soldiers, DA civilians, and family members to follow the same guidance to prevent similar issues within our neighboring communities.”

No word on whether the soldier will face any disciplinary action.
