On Wednesday, multiple sources confirmed to CBS News that Dunn was also the plaintiff in an unsuccessful U.S. Supreme Court case last year in which — as a lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Air Force — Dunn attempted to block the Air Force from disciplining him for refusing to take the mandatory COVID-19 vaccine on religious grounds. In April 2022, the high court ruled against Dunn's request for a religious exemption by a 6-3 margin.

According to court documents, Dunn was commissioned in the Air Force in 2003, and flew two combat tours in Afghanistan. He left active duty in 2014 and joined the Air Force Reserve.

In August 2021 he was given command of the 452nd Contingency Response Squadron, court documents read. However, after refusing to get vaccinated, he was relieved of duty in February 2022.

MAGA cretins who think they can take hostages on a flight deck, because they don't care about a possible medical emergency.
