The Air Force completed its investigation into Master Sgt. Cory Reeves and officials are taking the action deemed appropriate.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Just about the time I begin to think this kind of nonsense is a thing of the past, it springs up from somewhere.<\/p>\n

If Reeves does indeed participate in any form of White Supremacy, I would like the Air Force to explain why he is still in uniform.<\/p>\n

The Air Force finished its investigation into Master Sgt. Cory Reeves and officials are taking the action deemed appropriate, said Ann Stefanek, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Air Force. She confirmed Reeves remains at his same rank and continues to be employed by the military branch more than three months after the military became aware of Reeves\u2019s alleged ties with Identity Evropa,\u00a0one of the most visible white supremacist groups in Colorado<\/a>.<\/p>\n

She said no further information could be provided and declined to answer other questions, including whether the investigation confirmed Reeves involvement in Identity Evropa and what discipline he faced, if any.<\/p>\n

\u201cRacism, bigotry, hatred, and discrimination have no place in the Air Force,\u201d she said in a statement. \u201cWe are committed to maintaining a culture where all Airmen feel welcome and can thrive.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reeves appeared in multiple photos posted on Identity Evropa\u2019s social media pages. He also\u00a0appeared in a video purporting to show members of the group painting a mural<\/a>\u00a0of Identity Evropa\u2019s logo under a Denver-area overpass.<\/p>\n

The Southern Poverty Law Center\u00a0identified the group as a white nationalist organization<\/a>\u00a0and the Anti-Defamation League\u00a0called it a white supremacist organization.<\/a>\u00a0After Identity Evropa\u2019s internal online chats were leaked, the group rebranded as the American Identity Movement.<\/p>\n
