Neo-Nazi Group with Ties to U.S. Military


In the wake of the deadly anti-Semitic attack at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh, FRONTLINE and ProPublica present a new investigation into white supremacist groups in America – in particular, a neo-Nazi group, Atomwaffen Division, that has actively recruited inside the U.S. military.

The investigation goes on to show how the neo-Nazi group has sought to draw from the U.S. military, and how it has even run “hate camps” offering military-style training across the U.S.. It also explores the long history of white extremist groups with members linked to the U.S. military, and examines how civilian and military authorities have responded to Atomwaffen’s terrorist ambitions.

In WA State, Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) should be particularly concerned about Atomwaffen recruiting activity.

Extremist groups attempting to recruit and influence Service Members is too often and too easily overlooked or ignored. But when action is not taken to address these serious issues an environment of hate and mistrust is quickly built within the ranks.

Military personnel deployed to a combat area, their supporting contractors overseas, government civilian employees overseas, non-government organizations (NGOs), journalists working on international stories, businesses attempting to establish a foothold in developing countries, and individual travelers to remote areas of the world can all find themselves in hostile and non-permissive environments. This guide covers a broad range of subjects that are intended to aid individuals, living and working in dangerous areas, in being safer in their daily lives and in being better able to protect themselves and survive in case of an emergency, disaster, or hostile action.
