Paul Knox; Phony SEAL in LA
Don Shipley sends us a link to the Sulphur Daily News in Sulphur, Louisiana about the town’s awarding of recognition to Navy SEAL and Navy Cross recipient Paul Knox;
Vietnam War veteran and Purple Heart recipient Paul Knox was recognized for his military service by the Sulphur Armed Forces Commission at the Feb. 10 City Council meeting.
Knox served from 1969 to 1975 in the U.S. Navy as a Navy Seal, leaving with the rank of Senior Chief Petty Officer. During his military tour of duty, Knox was a Special Operations Seal for Team 4. His service awards and medals include two Purple Hearts, the Navy Cross and the Vietnam Service Ribbon. Knox, a retiree, is currently an active member of the American Legion.
A resident of the area for over 13 years, Knox and his wife, Michelle, are the parents of three children.
Knox received a certificate and city medal from Commission members.
Of course, since you know that Don sent it to us, he’s not a SEAL, nor is he a Navy Cross recipient;
You’d think that the Sulphur Armed Forces Commission could find a computer and check on something so simple. So, since he’s not a SEAL, not awarded the Navy Cross, I’m doubtful about the two Purple Hearts, too. I also don’t think Marilyn Monroe wrote the article either.
So while I was waiting for a call back from Don to pull the trigger, the Sulphur Daily Times pulled the article, but the internet is forever;
ADDED: Mary says his birth date is in 1957. He’s two years younger than me, and I was too young to have been in Vietnam. So, while we don’t have his records, we know he wasn’t a SEAL, we know he wasn’t in Vietnam (combat troops were pulled from Vietnam in 1973, when he was 16, Don says SEALs left Vietnam in 1972), we know he doesn’t have a Navy Cross, we also know he wasn’t an E-8, the Purple Hearts are in question because he wasn’t in Vietnam. Do we really need records on him?

Do we have his actual DD214?
He went from E-1 to E-8 in six years????? Holy Mother of Dunkin Donuts!! That is just amazing! It’s unbelievable!
It’s utter bullshit!
I have to go feed the cats. Next contestant!
Yes, PLEASE get this machine’s DD. I want to help him EAT IT.
Oh here go again, another phonyVietnam Seal. No Seal would ever let himself get that fat. Way too much pride in themselves to let that happen.
Looks like a cookie that went rogue. Not that there is anything wrong with being a cook.
“I’m proud to have Sulphur as my home. I Can’t think of any other place Id rather be right nor or any other time.”
Will this fatass still be saying that once word gets out that he’s a poser and fraud?
Ex-ph2 Yeah im hiosting the bullshit flag on him getting E-8 in 6 years. Maybe he could get Birdbath Bernath to photoshop his head on Don Shipley’s retirement photo. After that William Derek Church Could come up with a “timeline/DD214”
My guess is embellishment. Fucking sad.
PH2–I saw a Senior Chief get frocked in just under 10. That to me was almost beyond belief.
Then again, you’d think one of those dumbasses would learn to Google-Fu the fact Seal Team 4 didn’t exist until 1983.
“Do we really need records on him?”
To out him here among veterans no, to shove that report up his ass and get the media to blast him yes.
Commissions or newspapers in LA doing fact checks? Yeah right.
LOL Not just Sulphur. Louisiana folks I hate to say don’t like checking things on a computer and usually take a man’s word with a simple handshake. Even seen a phony I went to high school with in Central Louisiana was trying to sell the story that he was still in Army NG claiming to be going to airborne, fat as hell too. Poor guys ex-girlfriend outed him to his employers too, got him fired (working as a chef)
E-8 in 6 years, pretty gullible folks to believe this mess. There are probably plenty of phonies waiting to be outed in Louisiana.
Well, we’ve filed for his records. But the Sulphur Daily Times pulled the article this afternoon, so I thought I’d pull the trigger tonight.
That guy looks like Big Dawg’s Bro.
“During his military tour of duty, Knox was a Special Operations Seal for Team 4.”
I wonder if he ever ran across Commander Phil Monkress at All Points Logistics being that they were in the same unit, albeit different times.
The cane is a nice touch.
Turd.
I had a Master Chief EM in A school that did it in 12 years.
I think for every purple heart these jerk wards claim to have they need to be stripped naked and shot in the nuts with a bb gun.
Best I saw was Chief in just under eight years. A Nuke of course. Back in those days Seals did not advance as easy as they do now. They used to have source ratings and had to take those advancement exams. It was not an even playing field for them, the rating exam was stuff that they never used and never really had a chance to keep up with. That is why they now have the SO rating. So Senior Chief in 6, MAJOR BS FLAG. From a REAL FUCKING DEAL SENIOR CHIEF.
Maybe the reason he made E-8 so fast, is that he the great grandson of Frank Knox. The former Sec. Of the Navy.
Ya wanna make things worse? I *rode* several PGR missions with this mutha fucka…sat with this mutha fucka, ate wid this mutha fucka. Oh boy, oh boy his world just got one hell of a lot *BIGGER*! Um, bet I know some LSP troopers (USN Vets) that just might wanna yank his chain, really, really hard. Ohhhh Lawdy…Calcaseiu Parish gonna be hopping n popping afta him…*woofta*.
Also, dude two to the right has on his hat what appears to be SSG or SFC rank.
Other dude has something similar, but unable to make out.
They should know better.
Plus the maggot is unshaven, unkempt and fat.
I have rarely run across former SEALS, SF, Rangers, etc. that check all of these blocks simultaneously.
Just an observation.
HEY, YOU! Paul KNOX! Thank the Good Lord I no longer live in Orange, brau. F’ng “A” lucky…Too bad Milt passed away you nutha fuckin’ jackwagon!
I had the Enlisted son of and active duty Admiral in my shop. He did his best to keep anyone from knowing. Until daddy came to Visit.
He got called over the one MC to lay to the Admirals Bridge. Everyone was asking WTF did you do. Div O hits our shop like his ass was on fire. Poor guy, all he could say was my father must be on board.
@2 Ex “Holy Mother of Dunkin Donuts” made me snort out my dinner beverage! Thank you sister for that.
This guy, the way he looks, is just unbelievable. I don’t get him and I don’t get the down home folks and REPORTER, not doing any checks whatsoever. I mean did none of the community serve in the military? That they would not have a clue that his story is so off on so many counts. Can’t wait to hear Master Chief’s response.
@11 Green Thumb I will say you are a consistent man. That’s a compliment from me to you by the way. I knew Commander Phil Monkress, APL and TURD would make their way into your comment. 😀
So in the words of Phony SEAL and Senior Chief, Paul Knox, “thanks and I thank you right back”.
@10–well, he DID claim he was in Seal Team 4, and given that Monkress claims to be a COMMANDER of Seal Team 4…
I see a bright future in the LA branch office of APL for this chode.
Here are the key e-mail addresses for Sulphur Springs, LA, smoke the sumabitch by e-mailing Jon’s post to them. I did. The only way we are going to combat this crap is by communicating with those who have been taken. In a small town like Sulphur Springs, that should be enough to make his life very unpleasant.

@13–and making CPO (or PO1 or PO2) was all the more interesting considering back in the day we tested on conventional surface crap. Ever run into an ET3/ET2 bubblehead nuke that gave a rat’s ass about radar? And when they merged the forward sub rates (QM, RM, ET) into ET, I get handed CPO PARS that dealt with navigation and told I had a month to finish and pass them before I could take the Chief’s exam. Yet I still remember what LHA and SHA are, go figure.
Then again, I had to show a (much) senior skimmer non-nuke ET1 how to rewrite a cyclic PM schedule. Actually, I don’t think he learned much, considering all he did was sit there and drooled a lot.
This guy, OTOH? No load waste. Period.
Ok. Where’s the Public Shaming wanted poster on this misbegotten spawn.
Or as they would say in Louisiana (or anywhere else in the South), “Bless his heart”
@streetsweeper- that is by far the best swamp-speak I’ve ever read! Had a buddy from the brackish waters of LA. Dude would alternate dropping consonants and vowels like a stroke victim. Great cook tho….
Jonn,
They would have checked the computer box to verify, if they had one.
They only computer in the area is at the county jail/meth rehab center.
Roh-dog; Thank ya! However, while I am not a natural born there cajun, Acadiana was very, very good to me and fo’ me. Yan run de bayou’s lon’ ‘nough ya git the lingo down quick. Especially ifn ya keep yer trap shut. This mutha fucka, KNOX! His world gonna be growing so big, he ain’t gonna be able ta float his whale ass down the Calcaseiu to the Gulf wid out dey Coast Guard stoppin and boardin’ his itty bitty boat.
As some might say out on de bayou, dey boy, he done fucked up! Heh. PS- The waters round Lake Charles, Cameron n such are somewhat freshwater by dey way, but Lordy when it be shrimping time, lookout!
Right now William Derek Church is thanking whatever deity that he worships that someone took the spotlight off of him (for now).
I flat out dare him to tell the Coasties he was a Senior Chief…they’ll eat him alive for lieing to ’em. HAHAHA! He done fucked up! Them kids play rough too, by the way…Just saying.
Wrong, Master Chief. LSP Troop D and Calcaseiu Parish SO hve hella ‘puters, desktop and vehicle, lol! BTW…do not be stupid and get stopped by LSP troopers, heh.
City of Sulpher Veterans Commission:

well, if they yanked the story, someone threw the bullshit flag and instead of ignoring them they listened. just sad that his lies got as far as they did. I wonder how long he’s been spinning his story? and we all know, faking on this level is always the tip of the iceberg. I wonder what else he has been up to?
This fat fuck couldn’t even get the math right, pretending to be a 16-year old SEAL in a SEAL Team that did not even exist during the Vietnam Conflict, with a Navy Cross to boot. Just another lying sack of swamp shit…
I apologize if I have offended anyone from the country of LA!
(More Sarc)
‘nozzle.
@21, I don’t know where Sulphur springs is, but this is from the town I grew up in, Sulphur, about 5 miles west of Lake Charles, 20 miles east of Texas on I-10
It kinda sucks seeing your home town being the idiots of the day
He’s been in Sulpher 13 yrs…about four that I know of. I did PGR between Beaumont & Lake Charles. Last couple of times I saw him was in Beaumont at the service for a USCG PO2 (can’t remember his name, he was Maritime Security POB) was KIA on his way to work and later at Milton’s funeral in Sulpher and escort up to Bon Weir, Texas. He wasn’t none too friendly at the restaurant we stopped at in Bon Wier afterwards and made sure I sat way across the restaurant from him. In fact, I didn’t say a word to him when we broke up and headed home ‘cept maybe “Well…bye”.
Best I can find out from multiple databases is only 6 SEALS ever recieved the Navy Cross in Vietnam. None of them were named Knox. There are only a few postings for advancement to Senior Chief but none of them had Knox listed in them.
“Sulphur Armed Forces Commission”
Who and what are these people? And what do they do?
Well, Mr. Knox is now persona non grata. Maybe he’ll turn in that certificate and say he’s sorry.
Yeah, the squirrel that steals bird food off my front steps is more likely to become a household pet first.
MON DIEU, ”Bruh, he done fucked up ‘dis time, ain’t gonna be none too good fo’ him roun’ dat town, ya’ don’ run aroun’ lyin’ to folks like dat roun’ deah, an’ ya’ DON’ mess wit’ Swamp Folks like det’!”
He be mo’ fucked up den’ a truckload of brokin’ football bats!
I hope he’s already squirming like William Derek Church the roly-poly Round Ranger and Daniel A. Bernath THE FAKE CPO!! I’ve been to and through LA plenty of times, I’ve gotten to know some fine folks from around there, and they don’t play around with shitwads like PAUL KNOX THE SEAL POSER. He/it, like W. D. Church and the Round Marine, looks like a critter that could SUCK the cream filling out of a Hostess Ding Dong or Twinkie from 500 meters away or SUCK the icing off of a cake or doughnut from 1500 meters away!!
Wonder if that commission is the same as the county veterans service officers.
I’m again reminded of a quote from an article I read a few years ago by Mrs. Schantag if I’m correct, “Only about 500 US Navy SEALs served in Vietnam, and we’ve investigated all 30,000 of them.”.
Also Senior Chief (Ret.) Don Shipley’s quote “Every current or former genuine US Navy SEAL has about one hundred posers riding on his back”. I wonder if this sniveling, slovenly, grossly corpulent DOUCHENOZZLE will flare up like an aggravating hemmorroid threatening to sue, prosecute for harrassment, bla, bla, bla,.. like the others, or play the “I’m SUCH a seekrit skwirrel that my Service Records…” card?
@41 ArmyATC
I wouldn’t be surprised. And that person probably never served.
If he’s anything like Waddlin’ Willy, which he does bear a resemblance to, he’ll go the sekret skwirel route and when that doesn’t work claim everyone is picking on him and it’s all their fault.
He already plays the everybody is picking on me role.And his wife believes him.
I wonder how much per month he/it draws from the Government, has an FOIA come back on him/it yet?
@ streetsweeper, “Keeyaw! Brah, dat bwah done put hisseff in some SHIT, yeah?”
At ArmyATC: No, not the same as county VSO’s in case you are thinking of Texas, just Louisiana’s way of recognizing their local veterans service and veteran celebration activities.
The state has their own VSO program, I believe.

API; Like I said earlier, let him be stopped chugging down the Calcaseiu to the GoM by the USCG and tell them he was a Senior Chief. I will vouch for the Coasties stationed out of Lake Charles,La & Port Arthur,Tx. They do not play nice when lied to after asking for the identifying document. *evil laughter*
Thanks, Streetsweeper. So tis veterans commission sets up parades and that sort of thing? Basically a civic type duty?
At #21 Enigms4U, use a pellet gun(.50 caliber=no reproducting. #21, Club Manager which address is the newspaper E-mail address ? E-8 in 6 years, no way period. Timr travel to be in SEAL team 2. SARC ALL THE WAY. Reporter(?) GOOGLE Navy Cross in the future. Joe
@ 12 Hey Enigma, do they make BB guns in 00 Buck? If not we can use a Mossberg.
