My main question is how does someone be a 0-3 at age 50 and not get seperated

A US Coast Guard officer has been arrested on suspicion of planning a terror attack, court documents show.

Police found a cache of weapons and ammunition at the Maryland home of Christopher Paul Hasson.

The self-proclaimed white nationalist had drawn up a list of targets including prominent Democratic politicians, according to prosecutors.

He is said to have drawn inspiration from the Norwegian mass murderer Anders Breivik.

"The defendant intends to murder innocent civilians on a scale rarely seen in this country," US District Attorney Robert Hur said in the court documents, requesting that he be held in detention pending trial.

What has he been accused of?

Mr Hasson is charged with unlawful possession of a firearm and controlled substances, but prosecutors say these "current charges, however, are the proverbial tip of the iceberg".

"The defendant is a domestic terrorist, bent on committing acts dangerous to human life that are intended to affect governmental conduct."

The 49-year-old is a lieutenant at Coast Guard headquarters in Washington and lives in the Maryland suburb of Silver Spring.

The Coast Guard confirmed that a member of the service had been arrested, and said he was no longer employed at the agency's headquarters.

Fifteen guns and more than 1,000 rounds of ammunition were found in Mr Hasson's basement flat along with illegal drugs, the attorney's office said.

   My question is how do you plan to kill every person on earth with only 1000 rounds of ammunition. Thankfully this guy was not very good at planning. Sounds like another one of the many that could benefit from better system of mental health care.

Chilling that he studied Breivik. Those teens were on an island. He came to the island pretending to be a cop who said he was there on a routine check following the attack in Oslo and then proceeded to shoot the teens.

Nut job for sure.If you have ever been in the military it would be hard to still be in and be an 03 at that age. Usually if you fail to advance you get booted.

 

Same would be true if someone was an E-4 after 20 years. Almost impossible to remain in the military that long without advancing

While true, NB, he falls under DHS, not DOD.  Different rules.  He could have transferred from another branch to the CG later into his first career.  It takes nine years to make 03 in the CG.

No misspellings... someone has kidnapped NB!!!

from what i see, hardly a cache of weapons and ammo.  3 shotguns, 2 revolvers, an obvious .22 rifle, and not enough ammo to really have a good day at the range with.
