This young man who was arrested worked as Air National Guardsman.
How could he access secret and top secret paper from different areas inside the Intelligent ?
In my wold these guards do not have access to these type of paper.
Maybe it's different in USA ?

It depends on his particular job.
At one point even though I was just a buck (junior) Sergeant I was the highest cleared person on Fort Devens because I was working in the post communications center and needed access to intel traffic going all the resident units and separate commands so I could process it.
Back then everything was done on punch cards and teletype paper so making illicit copies of classified materials was nearly impossible. These days it must be a security nightmare now that everything is transmitted electronically. You just can't achieve the same level of control over electronic media that you can with stamped and numbered hard copies.
