Robert Glenn Fletcher; phony special forces soldier

The folks at Green Beret Posers Exposed send us their work on Robert Glenn Fletcher I’ll let them tell the story;

We present Robert (Robbie) Glenn Fletcher. Robbie was sent to us by someone who knew something in his story didn’t add up. On his Twitter account (@fletchrs), he claimed to be a Special Forces Operator, 1st SFOD-D, Airborne, HALO jumps, SERE Trainer, Master Diver, Weapons/Flying skill sets and Contract Work. A real John Rambo.

We found two LinkedIn accounts for Robbie. In one, he lists his military service as “US Army Environmental Specialist (on official DD 214) 348th Engineering Detachment May 1984 – February 1987 2 yrs 10 mos. Special Forces, Consulting to present. (All records/dates Classified) beyond 1987.

In his second LinkedIn account, he left his military “career” out of the former jobs information, but under Awards/certifications he added “Military SOF Training (Classified)”.

Robbie thinks his life story is so interesting he wrote a blog all about his life. Here is the most interesting, entertaining, and pitiful part:

He continues “I maintained my training with the Army in an SF Reserve unit and was afforded the opportunity to attend Baylor University.”

Enjoy the photo of Robbie with his Special Forces baseball hat adorned with the novice parachutist badge, a Major’s oak leaf and the coup de gras, the highly valued officer U.S insignia centered in the Special Forces Crest!

Why do all these posers try to use the “classified” line to cover up their deceit. I guess they will never learn!

We developed a time line for Robbie from his graduation from high school until now. We used his on social media from the Internet to build the timeline and then added the information obtained under the auspices of the Freedom of Information Act from the National Personnel Records Center.

Here is our timeline:

This timeline clearly demonstrates he did not have the time to attend the training to include Advanced Individual Training, Airborne School, Special Forces Qualification Course, Survival, Escape, Resistance, and Evasion Training, the Military Free Fall course, the assignment to a Special Forces Group and Operational Detachment, then attend selection and training for SFOD-D. No way! Really Robbie get a grip on reality!

We attempted to call Robbie, but could not make call Robbie several times with no luck. So we sent him an email to his work email address laying it all out for him. The next morning, an answer arrived. Robbie admitted everything. Here is an excerpt (full confession will be in the photo section):

“From: Fletcher, Robbie
Date: Thu, Mar 23, 2017 at 11:49 PM
Subject: RE: Green Beret Posers Exposed
To: John Miller

John,

First of all, let me apologize for not calling you in person but I thought it late and quite honestly, shameful for me to even have the right to talk with you. You are correct in your findings. I can’t even explain in correct words how absolutely horrible this really is. I have had family and friends, some of which did earn the title of being in Special Forces whom I have greatly admired and respected throughout my life. To really think what I have done in words compared to what you brave men have done in deeds, is incomprehensible.

So Private First Class Robbie Fletcher, a true hero in his own mind, Environmental Health Specialist, is a liar first class and has quite the imagination. We plan to make him famous on the Internet as a shamed POSER, one who did not have the courage to undertake the military career he has created in his own mind. Hopefully, Robbie didn’t include this fictitious military fairy tale on his professional resume or job applications, well maybe KARMA IS A BITCH
