Brian Cavalier; another phony Marine at Malheur

The Daily Mail says that they talked to Ammon Bundy’s body guard at Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, Oregon, Brian Cavalier and that he told them that he was a former Marine.

Then he made his false declaration.

‘I’m a retired United States Marine, I can rage,’ he said, before dropping in that he had served in Afghanistan and Iraq.

During several encounters with Cavalier – who on one day wore a hat with a badge stating ‘major league sniper’ on the front – he gave off an air of a long-time serviceman.

So the reporter confronted him with the fact that the Marine Corps had no record of his service;

When Daily Mail Online confronted Cavalier over his Marine fabrication he seemed nervous and the bravado of previous days vanished.

‘That’s unfortunate that someone would say that,’ he said, refusing to deny the claim.

When asked if our information was wrong, he responded: ‘I’m not commenting on anything, I told you what it is.’

Cavalier asked who our source was and when told the US Marine Corp (USMC) had confirmed he was never a Marine, he said: ‘That’s unfortunate they would say that. It is what it is.’

When it was pointed out to Cavalier that people might be upset once they discover his lie, he added: ‘Hey you’ve got a job to do and I’ve got a job to do.’

According to the Daily Mail, Cavalier is really a tattoo “artist” with a long criminal record that includes “Extreme DUI” and theft. I hope he doesn’t use his own art work to attract tattoo business. Or maybe I do hope he does – actually, I don’t care what he does.

So, I guess if someone is going to join one of these clubs, they had better make sure that they have no discernible honorable military service or they’ll end up being an outcast.
