Ohio National Guard reveals member accused of expressing white supremacist views

Amid what it said was an ongoing investigation, the Ohio National Guard released the name of a member facing removal from the organization after allegedly expressing white supremacist views.

A National Guard spokesman said Pfc. Shandon Simpson “has been processed for separation,” but would not elaborate, citing the investigation.

The organization also would not release his age or hometown, but previously identified him as a member of Company C, 1st Battalion, 148th Infantry Regiment in Tiffin since May 2018.

Public records show he’s 24 and registered to vote at an address in Huber Heights, outside Dayton.
