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.

I suspect he’s inflating his resume...
As a prior jet mech, that’s my story and I’m sticking to it. ;^)
