Mike Jolly; phony Marine
Some folks in Arizona asked about this David Michael Jolly, who goes by Mike Jolly in the martial arts realm. His organization is the Libre Fighting Systems Chapter Phoenix, AZ.
Added September 2, 2017; Libre Fighting System writes to tell me that Jolly has resigned and no longer works for them.
Jolly tells folks, and his students, that he did four years in the Marine Corps – it’s part of his schtick for teaching martial arts;
The Marine Corps only remembers about six months of that time;
Notice in the military education block, it doesn’t even mention basic training. In the awards block, there’s no National Defense Service Medal.
I suspect that there’s some UA/AWOL time involved.
Not a Marine.
He also walked away from his job in the Air Force after a few months, just a few days after the Twin Towers fell;

Either that, or he kept getting rolled at MCRD and they finally just booted his ass. Last command is 2d RTBN….hmmm. Wonder if he kept pissing the bed and they kicked him out. Although, that tan belt he got during 2nd phase probably showed him all the BJJ he needed to know to get out and teach others.
My thoughts as well, it sounds to me like he was a recycle that they said “To hell with him!” and threw out.
Everyone wants to be a Marine, until it’s time to do Marine shit. Like picking up cigarette butts. Or painting rocks. Or raking the sand.
Did Marines get to burn human waste in drums while in Nam or was it just an Army pleasure?
In Fallujah I was supervising NCO watching boots burning shit in drums once.
When was that?
As a boot Cpl in Desert Shield and Desert Storm, I had the pleasure of burning shit in cut off barrels….I got some great 110 camera pics of it. I didn’t mind it because it was a great way to keep warm if you didn’t mind the smell. Just don’t stir the shit with an engineer stake unless you have gloves….
Or turning rocks over one at a time “to make sure they’re done on both sides.”
Or vacuuming the parking lot….
Or mopping up the rain…
What about Police Call, or is that an Army thing, especially when a CSM sees a candy wrapper next to a busy street?
I still field strip the “Swisher Sweets” during bug season. You can chew the wooden tip into pulp.
Marines do police call every morning at the barracks. The duty rounds up the boots in the morning and gets them on line in front of the barracks.
How about KP? Or are all y’all too young to have pulled it?
BTDT, I scrubbed NO pots or pans before their time!!!
I’m not sure if it was considered “KP”, but I recall being assigned to either mess duty (working in the messhall) or walking a post with camp guard for a month stretch every year or so.
Not sure how the Corps does it now.
Great Lakes Navy boot camp in 1963 had us walking fire watches at night around the barracks and all the recruits had to learn the 11 general orders of the sentry, but there were 12 if some of you over 70 remember. Goes like this-to walk my beat, beat, your meat and take no shit from the service week. Was there in 63 when JFK was killed.
That 12th general order was still in effect when i was there in 75.
I pulled it in 1984.
The last KP I pulled was in 1981 when I was a PFC during an FTX. Don’t remember much about it, as it was grubby and filthy and lengthy and very very much forgettable…
BASIC at Leonard Wood in ’91 we pulled KP a couple of times, but I think it was more of a nod to tradition than anything else.
Net active service was 6 mo all at MCRD San Diego so I suspect he got recycled in boot camp and then failed a second time.
Entry level separation, failure to adapt and not a Marine.
Yep, he must have injured his mangina or maybe he just can’t swim. Amazing at how many people cant seem to stay afloat in a pool.
He will have some heart wrenching story about his struggle, his inner struggle with his humanity, loss of dignity and the unfair circumstances that lead to his demise.
Mike Jolly is not and never has been a United States Marine.
In that picture he looks like a pissed-off version of Al Bundy, But Al scored FOUR touchdowns in a single High School Football Game, has Mike Jolly ever scored even a single one, let alone ever played Football?
Loss of dignity? Y’mean, something like the DI found out he stuffed his shorts to look more ‘manly’? (Whatever that is.)
6 mos? what kind of discharge? they conveniently left that off? BCD? UD? Had to be a shytbird!
Hand picked and assigned to the blackest of ops, official records all but obliterated, he can’t talk about it and must be content with the knowledge that America is safer, because of his selfless devotion to duty.
Six months is a lifetime for a kewl seekrit squirrel gyrene. In six months as a seekrit squirrel, you can assassinate one dictator, blow up two AQ training camps, and single-handedly win three wars, all without filing any official paperwork or dealing with red-tape. Sounds like a win-win to me…
But at least he was in longer than Gunga Dan…///
Never have really been able to establish an exact time of service spent for Gunga Dan without having a service start date. After extensive interwebz searching, the best I could come up with is Doug Sterner’s statement that he was discharged with a little less than four months service on 11 May 54.
So, I’ll take the bull by the horns and give the little less an objective time of three weeks. Adding the three full months at 30 days per month and the three weeks at 21 days gives us 111 days.
Therefore and henceforth, let’s call the Gunga Dan line 111 days. Sounds like a nice round number to easily remember.
“So let it be written.”
“So let it be done.”
Sounds like a good and reasonable scientific deduction. I will go with it.
How sad is it that the burrito at 7-11 has more time in Service than those Two?
111, it looks like three dicks in a row.
Gunga dan, Gymble, and Jolly.
Real legitimate organization there. The only way they will accept payment for sessions is by cash, cashiers check or money order.
No way of telling whether he falls above or below the Gunga Dan line with no EGA/NDSM awarded after 186 days “service.”
“payment for sessions is by cash, cashiers check or money order”
I’m pretty sure this guy will make exceptions in certain cases.
Going with what others said. Never finished Boot Camp. 6 months is a long time, but not unheard of. More than likely he started training, had a medical issue come up and spent some time in Medical rehab platoon. Chances are he did a stint there, went back to training and injured again. Depending on the condition he might have even gotten a med board.
Bottom line he never earned the title.
I used to run the separations platoon and the vast majority of those we discharged were good kids. They just had circumstances that prevented them from being Marines.
No reason to lie about what he did. Guess he has ego problems. I wouldn’t trust his MA certs either.
Well, the reason that I think there’s a UA/AWOL incident is because there’s no NDSM. If his reason for not completing boot camp was medical, they probably would have given him the NDSM out of sympathy.
I cant be 100% certain, but I don’t think the NDSM was entered in Marines records until they were about to graduate. I think it was simply a matter of a clerk with a stamp with “NDSM” stamping the awards page so they didn’t have to pull them out and type it.
The DD214s were issued by 3 civilians who dealt with separations only. In Seps we collected all their military gear issued. I Cant recall ever taking back a NDSM, or for that matter many rifle qualification badges. Those were issued during the last week or so of training.
clerk with a stamp with “NDSM”
Imagine what that would go for on ebay.
I twisted my knee pretty badly in first phase (PI ’87) and was put into MRP while I hobbled around and got physical therapy, etc. (They put all the crazies there too….did I mention when I was on firewatch one late night I found a recruit hanging himself on the upper half of his bunk with a web belt? And more.)
Anyway, I healed, went back to training in another series and earned the Title. But, it was to a large extent the butt kicking I got there from the DI’s that kept me focused and going. So, all that said, thanks Drill Instructor!
That “Reaper Method” looks really cool.
Pound and stab… pound and stab…
Not even a gedunk medal? Hah! (snorrtt!)
I used to hang out at the NOB Norfolk,pier 4 gedunk stand, eat rebel burgers and watch a screen on top of the juke box with a video of Little Eva singing Do the Locomotion. Those rebel burgers and RC cola were great. That was the answer burger to the Micky D’S burger. Gedunk stand on board had ice cream that always tasted crunchy and not smooth.
Oh. Hell. No.
Not a Marine.
And as Just An Old Dog says above, someone may also want to run a check on his MA certs.
Maybe a search on bullshido.net might be in order.
“For he’s a Jolly poor poser,
For he’s a Jolly poor poser,
He’s not a Marine, he’s a poser,
And all he can do now is cry.”
There always has to be Krav Maga training. The Corps probably realized he had exceptional fighting skills so he was sent to Israel for advanced close combat training.
Massad realized what a perfect killing machine he was and deployed him to the Dan Carmel in Haifa. Getting in and out of that place is no easy task. (Room service is outstanding)
Patrolling Dado Beach is not for the weak. He was probably forced to live on Falafels and covered in SPF 50 during his training.
Or maybe not, maybe he is just another embellishing sack of shit that can not seem to face his failures in life so he steals valor from those who actually have some.
He trained with The Zohan…
Ahh, but he forgot to fake his own death and take on a new identity.
How come you’re still alive, Dave Hardin? I thought that trail assassin was coming after you.
I believe that I heard the other day that the ‘hit’ on Dave has been tentatively rescheduled to 1 August, because the assassin was delayed for an extended period of time at some sort of all-you-can-eat buffet while he was enroute to Stately Hardin Manor.
Maybe the all-you-can-eat buffet was a cover story. Instead the intrepid poser/hitman asked directions from a shave-tail LT and got lost in the swamps.
Krav Maga……is that the same as Jew Jitsu??? 😏
There are memes for that……
I had a friend that was in an Israeli jail cell but he escaped by eating the Locks/lox.
But can he fight with a shovel? That’s what I want to know.
When it comes to the fight…if you ain’t got the shovel skills, you ain’t shit.
you really have to start posting page captures because it happened again. i was on mikes page and about to say hi and POOF! his page disappears. i go to the dojo page and POOF its gone too! i guess i scared him….
LOL.
See, Mike the Jolly Poor Poser is a Sekret Skwirrel! He can go poof and disappear before your very eyes!
Mike’s page is there, just locked down as so that you can not comment on it.
The business page on the other hand is gone.
Yep, you’re right. Both of them are gone.
I’m glad I looked at them early on. Some of Jolly’s 98 fake Facebook friends he had were pretty interesting./smile
Yeah you’re right, FACEBOOK PAGE GO *POOF!*!
i can honestly say ” I was there, Knee deep in Burrito wrappers what all of the sudden… POOF!”
His super killer organization has lethal women in it too. I seems they are taught to protect themselves from men who just stand around and let the women knife them.
Handy skill, must be a horror knowing there are people that can kill you in seconds. The horror…the horror.
Hey Dave, check out my Al Bundy post! If he never played High School Football, would that make him an Al Bundy wannabe as well?
Jolly lives by Al’s rule, “ It’s only cheating if u get caught. ”
What in the blue-eyed world was that?
The video of feral kittens getting a bath is more interesting.
Yeah, and knife wielding assailants do historically engage other similarly armed and ready opponents…cuz, it’s a fair and just world out there.
The bag slit from behind was cool.
Looking at his current pic and knowing he got the boot barely a decade ago leads me to believe he didn’t go in right out of high school, either.
Libre Fighting Systems…?
More like Nacho Libre!
Nacho Libre, not Nachos Grande. It took me a few days to get over my last engagement with Nachos Grande! Not to be confused with Macho grande which I too will never get over as well as my time in the jungles of Paprika!
Here’s what I just found from our friend Mr. Google®™, anyone ever heard of “Soul Fighter’s Academy”?
http://soulfightersacademy.com/network/index.php?showcase/mike-jolly.28/
Looks the perfect place to spend some money, learn some shit, adopt an attitude and have your ass thoroughly handed to you in a bar fight you used to have the common sense to walk away from…and no refunds
I know Matt who runs it hes a decent guy
In addition, although there are some genuine bad asses in the Corps, in my time the average Marine learns just enough hand to hand in recruit training to just get himself in trouble.
The guys that were true bad asses spent hours training during off duty, just like a video store clerk, a waiter, or a mechanic in the civilian world.
I’m never interested in destroying anyone’s livelihood. I prefer to see that they stop the nonsense and just be who they really are.
If they refuse, I’m sending Spiderman after them… or Baba Loouie… or Mike Hammer. And I mean it.
Nah, send in Hulk and be done with it.
Okay, but Hulk is in a bad mood today.
Not A Marine.
Not a real man, either.
I imagine we will need some industrial strength cleaner to remove a turd of this size.
I wonder if he studied with “Ranger” Burrell?
Haha and he couldn’t even hack 3 months of Hollywood Marine boot.
What a fighter!
Mike Jolly FB page is up but very much sanitized with just stupid photos of movie characters.
I’m sure that Mike Jolly is at least a fifth degree douchebag and I motion for the Wall of Insults®™ to be dropped on him.
second!
I especially hate the posers in the martial arts world — they give us all a bad name.
Well you guys asked for it.
“We already have a request for the Wall of Insults®™. ”
(I agree, we have a double douchebag here inflating his NON-Marine washout/dropout/at the very least, Entry level separation, failure to adapt.)
We also already have a “Second”….all in Favor say “AYE”
AYE!!!
We have an “AYE” vote… By TAH Robert’s Rules, only one vote required, the “AYE”s have it. BING BING BING BING BING BING BAH-DOOOOOM Wall of Insults®™ FIRE IN THE HOLE!!!!

Send it; fire for effect!
They killed his SoulFighters profile, too. Good thing that I saved it for posterity.
Maybe they mean “ghost fighters”? – take a good look at them and they disappear?
Maybe next he’ll have some more Internet Fame on the “Bullshido” website!
Mike is the guy who put the BJ into BJJ
Are we sure its him the pictures are different
WE?
Who is “we”, pray tell? You got a mouse in your pocket or something?
This was settled nearly a year ago. Why are you reviving it?
Hell he was trying to be a Hollywood USMC and Not Parris Island RTC.
He should get together with Frank’Dix’ Dux and become the ultimate phony Bullshito poser duo.
He probably lies about his lifts as well.
You are all right, I am not a Marine, nor do I claim to be one to my potential students in Libre or my personal daily life anymore. When I was in boot I had some past medical issues come up that sent me home before I could graduate and I have been living with those demons for years with mixed emotions. I have recently gotten counseling for those issues and have come to grips with my past and have moved forward. I apologize to all those who serve and have served, and I appreciate you letting me know about the websites that still have that info on there, I have gotten ahold of the webmaster of those pages and have asked them to take it down.
Well, isn’t that………Jolly. ;-D
At least you seem to have the proper attitude here and as other say, follow up and ensure that corrections have been made.
“Go forth and sin no more”
And yet your own profile claims the title of Marine.
The AlGoreNet knows all, sees all.
Own it.
Just be aware, Mike Jolly, that if you decide to make false claims of service in the future, you will appear here on TAH as a repeat offender, and you will long for the sweet dulcet tones of a DI in your ears.
If you truly refrain from false claims in the future you’ll be ok.
Well, here’s a suggestion. If your medical issues have been fixed (enough that you can be some type of a MMA/BJJ/or whatever else it’s called/named instructor) and I’m guessing you’re not yet 40, (and I don’t think you are) go down and see a Recruiter and see if they’ll take you.
Yeah, I’m told what with the country being at war (again) for the past 15 years, the maximum non prior service enlistment age is now 40. (at least for the Army anyway)
Step up to the plate and take a swing and maybe there’s a chance of redeeming yourself.
It’s worth a shot.
Even better. I just read a piece on the interwebz that says a year ago the age limit was raised to 42.
So don’t be picky if the first service turns you away. Go shopping. Hell, even Audie Murphy was turned down by a couple of services before he found a home in the Army.
42, huh? So that should the the Old Farts Age Limit was also raised to 72. Fine. I can use the extra cash. Hey! GEN Mattis! Send me a recall, willya? I need to get the front steps fixed!
Disregard my suggestion of attempting to enlist.
After further consideration and examining the after excessive PED usage picture, I’m sure the urine sample from the induction physical would burst into flames while being hand carried to the test lab.
Mr Jolly,
Redemption is going to take action, not words. An apology is nothing more than words. Someone can use words to shape both a lie and an apology.
Your words ring hollow unless you follow up.
You signed the line and tried to be a Marine. For whatever reason you didn’t make it. Like I said above I was in charge of the recruit separations platoon for several months and the vast majority had circumstances beyond their control that led to them being discharged,
I have yet to see someone ever put in their bio ” I enlisted in the Military, but due to medical reasons I was separated before I completed recruit training”.
See how easy that is?
You admit to having deceived people for years. In my opinion, you probably never would have rectified this claim if you hadn’t been called out on it.
This has not only tarnished your reputation, but the reputation of your Martial Art and any establishment you worked with. People tend to be around others like themselves. Posers and embellishers congregate. You find one you find more.
Hope you really get your head out of your ass.
When I did my Hoser Basic Training back in 2001, we had this Russian born guy who turned 50 before graduation.
Granted, he spent 10y in the Soviet Army when he was younger…. But he could smoke like a chimney and still run circles around most guys half his age and do more push ups than most of the staff!
I swear I thought he was some dude trying to claim the mid-1980’s.
I about shit myself when I saw 2006/2007 on that DD214.
What’d he do, try the max age?
If Mike “The Fake Marine “Jolly is the first guy shown, who is the second guy with the beard? Those two are not the same fake Marine.
I’m guessing before and after PED’s pictures.
