Getting access to a military base means passing through security checkpoints as Florida Man found out recently when he tried to claim that Captain America was there to speak with the general.

FLORIDA MAN STRIKES AGAIN!

DATELINE - MacDill Air Force Base and the Saga of Florida man Baruch Roche II.

But before I tell you about him, I've got to set this up a little bit. You all know Mike Bufis, our promotions director. Mike is also one of the hosts of Metal With the Mikes - Mike Bufis, Mike Anthony, Friday nights at 11 o'clock.

Tonight as a matter of fact.

Mike is a huge Marvel Comics fan. Huge. Does a lot of cosplay. He made his own incredible Captain America costume. The amount of detail in this costume is staggering.

The reason I bring that up is Roche attempted to enter MacDill Air Force Base the other day in his car, but he was stopped by security personnel at the base gate.

I need to see some identification, sir

When they asked him for identification, he refused. He said, "I'm Captain America," and he demanded entry, claiming he had a meeting with a general to provide top secret information.

Now, to the best of my knowledge, Mike Bufis, whether he's in or out of costume, does not think that he is Captain America, nor does he go to United States Air Force bases claiming to have a meeting with the general to provide top secret information.

What's in the trunk, sir?

Well, Roche became argumentative and threatened to return daily to look for the officers who were denying him entry. Well, they had good reason to stop him because as security personnel searched his car, they found an AR-15 rifle plus five magazines loaded with 125 rounds of ammunition.

He was taken into custody and charged with attempted possession of a firearm in a federal facility. And I would imagine there are far more charges coming as well.
