The recent arrest of Coast Guard Lt. Christopher Hasson, a former Marine who investigators say was a longtime white nationalist, has lawmakers worried that military leaders may not be adequately tracking white supremacy issues within the ranks.
Hasson was arrested on Feb. 15 on drug and firearms charges, but investigators allege he was planning an attack against political and media targets.
Hasson’s arrest underscores a potential threat emanating from the armed forces — the infiltration of the military by violent hate groups or white supremacist organizations seeking to recruit service members with firearms and explosives training.

Another Timothy McVeigh in the making (yes, I know McVeigh was Army, but same general theme).

A thousand years ago (1980), back when the military was still paid in cash at pay sites, there would be tables set up for the local businesses - Bob's Barber, the local bars, all that. When I was first stationed at Fort Polk, EVERY month, the last table in line was a recruiting table for the local chapter of the KKK. No shit.
I also served with a guy that was a card-carrying member of the Grand Knights of the KKK when I was in the 101st in Desert Storm. As long as you did your job, nobody cared at that time.
