A U.S. Air Force veteran has been charged with trying to join ISIS after watching their online propaganda videos, the Department of Justice announced today. Tairod Nathan Webster Pugh, 47, was indicted by a grand jury in Brooklyn on Monday for allegedly attempting to provide material support to the group and attempting to obstruct justice. Pugh is an American citizen who previously served as an avionics instrument system specialist in the Air Force. His most recent address according to property records was in Bridgeton, New Jersey. Authorities say he tried to join ISIS earlier this year, weeks after being fired from his job as an airplane mechanic in Kuwait.

He spent four years from 1986-1990 and the MSM shows in their article a CM/SGT chevrons as the lead in. The top rank this loser made was Sgt. This Obama supporter needs to be shot by a firing squad.

Brother Baljoint! Now that’s funny! I don’t care who you are. Their father, Kingpin sez he’s very disappointed. Their mother, C.V. Joynt would not comment.

I probably shouldn’t complain too loudly...engine mechanics are basically becoming the same thing what with the advent of technology.

Used to be a time when one had to be a real technician/mechanic to fix ‘em...nowadays, all one has to be capable of is reading a screen that tells them what part to change.
