ABC News Coverage NIdaho Militia
They are not police officers. They are not active-duty soldiers. But what a group of weekend warriors is doing with guns in the woods not far from the Canadian border is perfectly legal. "Nightline" visited a recent Saturday training session of the 21st Battalion of North Idaho's Lightfoot Militia -- a heavily armed force that, we're told, numbers more than 100. Just about a dozen showed up on the Saturday we did. Along with an awful lot of shooting, they learn survival skills and take first-aid lessons from one of their members, who's also a firefighter. Their leader is "Major" Jeff Stankiewicz, an unemployed welder with zero military experience/ABC News. More here. (Note: Story aired on "Nightline" last night.)
