View Full Version : Another Military Faker (in AK)
[Rant1]This crap drives me crazy.
Re-posting this so it can spread like wildfire:
original thread here:
http://georgiapacking.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=49635
At this point LE has been notified and is on the look out.
This will be a brief rant about what happened in gizmo's life today:
So, I went to a gun show today with a friend of mine. We were in the mood for some deals, and in general just wanted to go play with some guns. http://georgiapacking.org/forum/images/smilies/icon_righton.gifextensive record let me describe this individual first. 30-40 yr old white male, approx 300 lbs, Blonde high and tight hair cut and a goofy overall appearance. He was wearing glasses on the back of his head, a belt on the outside of his ACU top full of gadgets and a radio with a hand mic wrapped around him self and clipped on his uniform.
I wanted a closer look at this guy so I told my buddy I would be right back and conducted some good ole fashion recon. He was at the polaris dealer talking to the sales rep about buying 4 quads "for his guys." I jumped in the conversation
Me: Jokingly "4! Can I have one!"
He chuckled and I asked him what unit he was in.
Him:"10th Special Forces."
Me: "Really? What are you guys doing up here?"
Him: "Oh Im just helping out some friends of mine"
I took note of all his uniform bits and pieces and walked away. He went about his business and I later confronted him again and asked him if I could talk to him outside. He and I walked out to the back of the gun show and I began to ask him a series of questions that only an individual with his experience would know. He failed miserably and I then decided to level with him. I produced my ID and asked for his. He told me it was in his car so I said lets go get it. Of course he did not have one and I began to lay into him. I yelled at him for a good 30 minutes and made him remove all the items he had never earned on his uniform. I called him plenty of names and said that he was wearing a uniform that my friends have died in, and that he didn't even deserve to touch one.
This guy began to apologize and back pedal, and asked me not to "tell on him." I began to tear into him and lower his self esteem even more hoping that he attempts suicide tonight.
All in all this is everything he lied about and what he was wearing:
Special Forces Qualification
Ranger Qualification
Airborne Qualification
Combat Infantryman Badge with 2 stars
Senior Parachutist Badge
Air Assault Badge
Military Police Badge
US ARMY Tape
and last but not least, Captain Rank.
Later people came up to me and told me what he had told others about himself:
He has served 20 yrs in the Army
He just came back from a 49 month deployment from Afganaland
He goes back and forth all of the time on "Special Mission"

When we get there we immediately notice an individual in ACU's. Since this is on Aug 7th, a Saturday, this came to us as being odd. So, my friend and I both being active duty NCO's start to eye ball this guy and notice his badges and awards. Before I list his
I just do not get why they fake themselves like that.
What's next? Fake about himself as a SR VP of Oracle or Cisco System?
At least faking as SR VP of Oracle or Cisco would be cheaper.
Fake business card, and polo shirts with company enblem. He will probably have better luck picking up some stupid ladies! ROFL... [ROFL1]
I remember one idiot tried to pretend that he worked for JP Morgan Chase as a financial analyst. His lie didn't go too far.
I thought the federal court ruled the stolen valor act unconstitutional. If so, what can they possibly do to him?

Oracle charges employees (even VP's) for the shirt. Most commonly worn items are no name polos and jeans.
I've known a lot of special forces and airborne, none of them look like this guy! Hell, I don't there is a unit in the world that would let someone get this out of shape! You were probably mistaken, I think he mean that he is that actual PLANE that they jump from because if here were IN the plane it would go down. This guy's a Jeep all by himself :). Seeing that SF tab on his arm just makes me laugh!

Even I am shocked and offended at this and I'm not in the service, though my father served 16 years in the Air Force, Grandfather 33 years in the Air Force (retired a Lt Col) and my other Granddad served 32 years in the Air Force (retired a Lt Col).
More than likely, I bet you that he wanted to join up, but his weight (or other health matter) prevented him from joining. He probably was upset with this and decided that mentally, he was good enough so he made up his own story (that he probably wanted to pursue). But who knows![ROFL1]

MAYBE
maybe not. i went to high school with several guys who wore USMC shirts nearly everyday. They told everyone they were going to join. well low and behold only 1 of those guys went in with the other 3 of us who shipped 2 days after graduation. and he got out before being sent to the ME. he faked sleep walking. i bet anyone of those posers could be an impersonater now. i saw fatbodies in boot camp, they had to eat less and work harder, but if they wanted to be US Marines bad enough, it was possible.
these guys are just a waste of skin. and stupid too. if you are going to fake it, why not lose weight or not wear the uniform, maybe wear a tshirt that has a unit on it and then make up a story about being hurt and laid up in a hospital bed, hence the weight gain. fuckem they need an ass beating.
Wow. My dad was one of the "fat f#$^ sticks" in the Army (Not fat=obese, just bigger than average farm boy). But he worked his ass off (literally) and made over 27 years and E9 before retirement. I wanted to join to follow in his footsteps but my car wreck in high school kinda put a stop to those plans. However, as much as I "want to be a part of" and respect our military I would never dress up and try to pass myself off as one. To me, that is just delusional...
And according to those pics, if that is the standard of the military now, lol, maybe I should try to join again! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
To all who have and currently serve, from the bottom of my heart: Thank you for protecting me, my family, and our nation.
i saw fatbodies in boot camp, they had to eat less and work harder, but if they wanted to be US Marines bad enough, it was possible.
Absolutely, I was a scrawny kid when I went in, but I didn't see anyone of, well, HIS stature after basic. After AIT, maybe, when they had a chance to settle in, but Ranger school - no frickin way. And special forces training? If he was then he was the entire platoon (maybe the whole company).
Those jump wings should be nailed into his forehead. It's not so much the uniform that pisses me off (hey, it's America and didn't we just decide it was OK to pretend...?), it's that he's saying that he beat out 2/3rds of the guys who went through special ops training in his physical condition. And being an MP AND in a special forces unit....hmmmm.....

Shitsacks like this guy make me want to pour a huge amount of chlorine in the Gene-pool.
I'm not ranger or SF Commando but I have spent enough time on Green-ramp to know that "Heavy-Drop" here is in fact a huge pile of shit that needs to fucking die.
I Serious doubt anyone over at the 612th QM (Riggers) would know how to palatalize this fatass.

Not excusing the fraud, but I pity him- he must really hate his real life, if he goes to this effort to fabricate a new one... to what end? Just to get a bit of admiration for what someone else has done?
Hopefully he sees the error of his ways (and a good Psychiatrist)
We should refer to him as Private Pyle... but he didn't even earn the rank of Private (neither have I... but I would never fake it)

There are those that want to belong to something greater than themselves that could not for one reason or another; physical health, mental, emotional, etc. I personally find their behavior abhorrent and I commend the person who contacted this guy and forcibly removed the items the guy didn't deserve to wear.
I joined the Army Infantry in 1985 and there were a lot of people I was stationed with in Germany who were 'PX Rangers", who felt left out, not quite good enough and felt the need to buy awards they didn't earn or awarded and have two different uniforms to wear. One was their normal, boring everyday uniforms and the second, they were Rangers, SF, what-have-you.
After Desert Storm, I knew a number of actual Soldiers who got left out of the conflict who felt the need to buy CIB's and wear combat patches when they PCS'ed to new units and some were caught.
Currently, we have a tons of people who have deployed overseas for over 10 years now. It is hard to find someone above E-5 who hasn't deployed, but there are a few flitting around, hiding here and there in school houses, admin positions, using every trick in the book to keep from being deployed. I foresee a bunch of these who will be the next generation of PX Rangers as those in the line units have been deploying every few years. My current unit (National Guard now, I'm getting old!) has already been to Iraq twice and it gearing up for its third tour somewhere.
Why do they do it? Wanting to belong. To be a part of something greater than themselves. To not feel left out. Hell! I was out of the military in 1998 and re-enlisted back in in 2006 in order to deploy with my unit. I wanted to belong, to be a part of something greater, but I had the BALLS to sign on the dotted line and put the uniform on, gear up and go do what my government asked of me.

Yes. Lots of companies do charge their employees.
Ony free shirt companies gives out are probably
"1st annual *blah blah*" with the company logo on it.

We support the 10th group here at carson and my experience with them is they are about as low key as it gets.
And the radio is a real nice touch. Must have been to phone ahead the burger king order. I did my deployments and time in the sandbox but nothing to write home about.

I did some work at JFKSWC at Bragg while convalescing back in 89ish
There is a reason they are known as quiet professionals.
I always wonder about the ones that bragg up some award, medal, Bragg up what unit they were with and how they won the war single-handed.
It's been my experience they are
A) PX Rangers.
B) Brown-nosers that had a hand in writing their own awards.
I knew a guy that never saw a single insurgent, never kicked a door, never ran a patrol. never heard a single mortar the entire time he was in KUWAIT.
wrote himself up a Bronze Star and an MSM.
I dunno about nowadays, but back when I was in you didn't get a bronze star unless you were in it.
I Dunno about the youth of today...
Oh, I was a Construction Equipment Mechanic.
Nope, Nothing super-cool. I had enlisted for the Special Forces Pathfinder Air-Assault Space Shuttle Door Gunner but they said they gave their last slot to Cpt Clark.
:D
So I still can't figure out what PX Ranger means. Someone tell me please.

PX stands for Post Exchange
Ranger is a school you attend to learn how to conduct combat patrols or it is a member of a elite infantry unit.
Put them together and you get a fat piece of shit that has never had a hard day in his life stealing from the men who bring fear into the hearts of there enemies in the middle of night.
So what I am trying to say is he went to the PX and bought the patches and awards that real men fight and die for to earn.
Any one know where this guy is at. I have a vested interest in seeing this faggot do the truffle shuffle. I bet that would push him to commit suicide.

PX = Post exchange
this is the primary retailer for durable goods.
If I wanted to feel important I go to the PX and buy garnishments to impress myself and hopefully those around me. Some personnel have even been known to falsify rank or awards by purchasing decorations they have not been awarded.
Make no mistake. UCMJ doesn't give a rats ass about the supreme court's ruling regarding Stolen Valor. Your ass WILL end up in the Brig if you are caught. and I Would wager you would be a tad worn and worse for the wear when you arrived.

I'll bet he picked up all of his "play Army" toys online, at surplus shops or at gun shows. I bought some 10th Mountain stuff online pretty easily (as a tribute mind you and not to play soldier).

Shame On You!!!! This "person" is lucky he was only "spoken" too. I know many who would not have been so kind.
Stu, the PX is like the "military only" Walmart. Depending on your branch of service it's called different things. Army is PX = Post exchange. Air Force is BX = Base exchange. Etc.
I've only met about three special forces people. Like actual operators, not logistical or support personel. I can tell you that they do NOT go around talking about what they've done or the awards they've won or how many people they've killed. They are solemn and professional and all in all, wonderful people. Anytime someone starts bragging about what they've accomplished, I turn a suspect ear/eye.
You know, I've heard of a lot of folks, in the regular Army, who wear the Ranger tab though they didn't earn it. Hell, for that matter I KNEW plenty of folks that wore the Ranger tab legally and didn't earn it in RS, but rather they got it for their involvement in either RS or because they were a CO. The Ranger tab doesn't guarantee they went through the training. It dilutes the hard work of others, but it does happen. Personally, I found it irritating as did most of the guys I served with but probably wouldn't get in a fight over it, likely I would just rip it off their sleeve. However, SF is a different matter, those guys were pretty hard core and might take the arm off too :).

Alot of people on this forum have fought and lost friends in defense of this great country. One of the freedoms is also the right to be a douche bag. Any one in there right mind should be able to pick this guy out. I don't condone his actions by any means ,but where do we draw the line with what we can say he can or cannot do. On the other hand I most likely would have pissed. From reading about this guy he needs some help, mentally.

in one regard I do agree, Fucknut needs a mental eval.
While it is legal to be a douche, and it had recently be re-legalized to falsely represent a member of the armed forces, it is still illegal to impersonate a federal law enforcement officer(military police) and have illegal access to a restricted military facility.
This guy needs something, that's for sure.
It is only legal in the sense that the government can't come down on him for doing it (assuming he's not coupling it with other illegal things). That doesn't mean that it shouldn't be looked down upon or that no one is allowed to say anything or kick his ass for it.

I know for a fact that the only way to earn a Ranger tab is to go through the school. I graduated from Ranger school and used to work there. Anyone who is wearing it and did not attend Ranger school is illegally wearing the tab and that is punishable under UCMJ. It is my guess that you are a vet from Vietnam era and didn't know that things have changed. No big deal just don't want bad info out there.

Not entirely true. Ther is a provision for soldiers that served in a Ranger company during Vietnam to wear the tab. I don't agree with it, just putting it out there. Nothing like this would fly in 75th today.

That's what I was saying, there were guys who wore the tab who didn't go to RS, I don't recall seeing guys who had been in for four or five years wearing them, mostly the guys who had been in for quite a while. It's not like I'm walking up to senior NCO's and officers and grilling them on how they got their tab.
Regardless, this douche bag was no Ranger or SF. Besides, as far as I can remember, I don't think I've ever seen a Ranger/SF/MP. I'm not sure he would have gotten through RIP in that physical condition.

Awesome! Think about it, we get super GI Joe here to A) parachute in, B) recon the targets, C) infiltrate and destroy, D) invisibly sneak back out and finally E) arrest any bastard that might interfere with his mission. The only down side being that he could easily be distracted by any rogue Twinkies, Ding-Dongs, Ho-Ho's or Pop-Tarts along the way :).
no aircraft in current inventory with that much lift capabilities....have to float him over behind an aircraft carrier (or whaling vessel)
How about those choppers that lift elephants out of danger....? Na, that would still be too much weight :).
Man, you guys are ruthless... lol, I love it.
I'm really starting to feel fat.... time to hit that gym when I get home I guess....
