Warzone/The Drive: Ex-Marine Corps Harrier Pilot Who Worked In China Has Been Arrested
The arrest comes shortly after the revelation that retired Western fighter pilots were working directly with China’s air arms in concerning ways.
Former U.S. Marine Corps AV-8B Harrier II attack jet pilot who had been working in China has been arrested in Australia. Daniel Edmund Duggan, 54, now likely faces extradition to the United States. It is an interesting development to occur in an ongoing crackdown on ex-military pilots from Western nations working in China, or on behalf of Chinese clients elsewhere. Namely, last week’s revelations that “at least 30” British former military pilots have been hired by China to provide training and intelligence to the People’s Liberation Army (PLA).
Duggan was arrested last Friday in Orange, New South Wales, by Australian Federal Police. He appeared in court there the same day, according to court records, two police sources, and his lawyer, Reuters reports. A request for bail was reportedly denied, leaving Duggan in jail in nearby Bathurst.

I hope that the apparent adverse China policies hold strong within the Biden Admin. Before they realize that it strongly resembles "America First" ideals and quickly reverse it.
