James Moten; phony Marine

| October 7, 2017

Someone sends us their work on this fellow, James Marvin Moten, who claims that he was Marine Corps veteran.

Actually, the Marine Corps doesn’t remember him, but the Air Forces does;

He was discharged after eight years of honorable service in the Air Force as a staff sergeant, but he did not serve in in the Marine Corps.

He says that he was forced to leave the Air Force because he didn’t pay his bills. He sued Sears for contacting his commander about the debt with them and won a $2 lawsuit against them;

Request immediate re-attack based solely on that stupid-ass straw hat that he’s wearing in that photo posted above.

Eight years, two Good Cookies, a Longevity Award and a NDSM, that’s it, no other awards? Sounds like a terminally mediocre type, and now he spouts bogus tales of derring-do, maybe he needs a dose of The Official TAH Wall of Insults®™, what say y’all?

Yea. This one shits my Corps and his own service branch. He’s got it coming.

I’ll second. Bring the shit, Chip!

Dennis - not chevy

Careful now, I’m not defending this guy! Okay, that said, when he was in it was common to see even field grade officers with no meritorious service or commendation medals. I knew an O-5 that got her first AFCM about one year before making O-6. If the salutables weren’t getting them, NCO’s weren’t getting them.
Now, having said that, I think this guy has fully earned the wall of insults.

A Proud Infidel®™

I’ll count that as a second and an “Aye”, now where’s ChipNASA?

In the 1960s, awards weren’t handed out like cookies and milk. If you see someone claiming a fat rack of bling from that time period, I’d be really suspicious about the claim unless he’s got backup for it.

Buttcrack lover…

Okifred

Reminds me of when I managed to get into the Banyan Tree on Kadena Air Base in Okinawa. I kept my Marine-ness on the down low because they (we?) were usually banned from the club for being too rowdy.

I overheard a young male airman talking to a young probable airwoman at the bar,

“I’m in security forces, it’s kind of like infantry but for the Air Force.”

I sighed and sipped my jack and coke.

A Proud Infidel®™

I’m just a run of the mill leg12 series turned 11B and I don’t know if I could have kept myself from saying something to that boy, you’re a better Man than I am!

Club Manager

That’s exactly what we were Okifred. When I went through Air Police School in 1958/59, there was emphasis on weapons and base defense because the NOKO hung our guys from the rafters in their barracks from foot lockers when they overran South Korea. We had reaction teams and I was a BAR man. Security forces was the new name because we did more security than police stuff. During the second Berlin airlift, we were flown into Bitburg AFB to help defend the perimeter.

Club Manager

I suspect the name change was also to distinguish the Air Force folks from being confused with the Military Police because back in the day, at least a sixth grade education was necessary to become an AP.

IDC SARC

No disrespect, but point defense is not the same as infantry.

OldManchu

“That’s exactly what we were Okifred. ”

No… you weren’t.

I’m sure what y’all did was plenty enough, very important, and a great source of pride in your life. So don’t claim it as infantry cause it wasn’t.

Sgt Fon

they picked me up one time in Kadina for peeing on the electric fence where the long black planes that only flew at night were after drinking $4 pitchers at the italian joint next to the runway. they let me go, i guess i was not the only marine to ever do that so….

Club Manager

I stand corrected, you are correct. First there is the Kaiser, he is the highest of all. Then there is the Kaiser’s horse upon which he sits. Then there is the dirt on which the Kaiser’s horse is standing. Then there the infantry.

FatCircles0311

So on his poser wall of heroism behind him he has pictures of other legit Marines trying to claim that’s him?

Fuck this clown.

Yeah, what a real class act.

What Moten was saying was true. Black Service Members were not allowed to serve in Iceland until 1969. According to several newspaper articles I read, ther e were only about 70 stationed there in the 1970-1971 timeframe and that the folks in Iceland may not have cared to have them in their country. Please also read my posts below about Rear Admiral John K. Beling.

What Moten wrote could all possibly be true. Only he can go into detail on this TAH about his time with the Marines or write Jonn explaining his story.

As far as him wearing the USMC T-Shirt or hat or having the USMC blanket draping his chair? Don’t know the motive behind that…could be the same motive that one of our Bloggers have when that Blogger wears an undeserved Air Assault Badge on a Santa Claus suit…or a Scottish Kiln with other unautorized military decorations in public while citing Army Regulation 670-1 as justification…or using an 1984 “Honorary Air Assault Cerificate” to wear the AAB.

Emblishment on Moten’s part? Misunderstanding? Again, only Moten can tell us the “Rest of the Story”.

BTW, him threating Jonn with a lawsuit? This will not be his first. I sent Jonn an email on a newspaper article from 1976 where he tried to sue Sears for him not paying his debts…and the article explains why he left the Air Force in 1974 and why he did not receive his 2nd CGM.

AnotherPat

Please read my comments below about the War Library.

A Proud Infidel®™

SERIOUSLY, you have GOT to be shitting us saying you’ve called the Police, do you have any idea how often some exposed assclown like you threatens to sue Jonn saying they’ll shut TAH down in a heartbeat? You’re likely little more than the bawling assclown du jour and you’re bringing even more ridicule on yourself.

Dave Hardin

Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy, I can’t make any sense out of what you posted at that link.

You were drafted in Iceland? HAHAHAHAHA, HAHAHAHAHA, HAHAHAHAHAHA you are completely full of shit.

Listen up dumbass, the IDF used people from other branches of the service to augment a reactionary force. Nobody got “drafted”. We spent time training people to fill in for us if we had to respond to a significant attack at a remote location.

I spent too much time trying to teach clowns like you how to make a gun go pew pew pew. You are a fucking joke.

Here is a link for you shit stain.

I think this is the War Library that Moten addresses in his comment:

http://www.amervets.com

That’s probably where he and that other fellow we know both got their Cold War Recognition Certificates from./s

As I’m sure both of them have the certificate hanging in a prominent spot on their I Love Me Wall with a motion activated spotlight to draw the viewers full attention.

AnotherPat

Claw: Not only are you the Supply Daddy and the Great Keeper of P38s, but also a mind reader…because that is EXACTLY what I was thinking when looking at the picture of Moten with all those certificates and pictures…😉

AnotherPat

Found something very interesting about Moten’s deceased Brother, Bobbie:

SSG/Tech Sgt Bobbie R. Moten was an Air Force Medic and was part of the Medical Team who flew on a C-141, Tail#60177 on 4 March 1973 from Vietnam to Clark AFB with passengers of Vietnam POWs.

Sadly, he died of a heart attack on 13 March, 1973 while either in the PI or his home base station of Travis AFB.

Source? Found his obit in a newspaper (James is listed in the obit) as well as his grave marker and the list of all medic crew members, the dates of evacuation of our POWs, the tail number of the planes carrying them, etc.

His story about being a part-time Marine in Iceland? Very interesting. Perhaps he can show proof with orders attaching him to the Marine Corps at that time.

Were there Marines stationed at Iceland in the 1960s or early 70s…or did he state he went to Okinawa or anywhere else outside of Iceland…or did Iceland have a Self-Defense Force in the 1960s, early 1970s that had troops equivalent to our Marines?

Or is he telling a Forgin Frank story, i.e. embellishment?

Only James knows the truth, which he can share with us.

HMCS(FMF) ret

Looks like there was a Marine Corps Security Force on the station (it’s Wikipedia) – I remember the one at Yokosuka had about 500 Marines assigned to it when I was there in the early 90’s:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naval_Air_Station_Keflavik

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_Corps_Security_Force_Regiment

AnotherPat

HMCS(FMF) ret: After reading the references you posted, perhaps Moten, as an Airman, was attached or assigned to that Marine Corps Security Force OR worked and trained with them and the Iceland Self Defense Force during the Vietnam Era in 1971 (all part of NATO).

Black Servicemen were not allowed to be stationed at Iceland until 1969…and in 1971, Rear Admiral John K. Beling was the CO there when American operations were being run by the US Navy.

So, it may be possile that Moten did train and work with the Marine Corps while stationed in Iceland from 1969/1970/1971 during the Vietnam Era. Perhaps a bit of embellishment on his part?

Did he scrub his Facebook? I did not see any reference to him stating he was a Marine in Vietnam. I read his story about being a “Half Marine”, which agains sounds as if he was sharing his experience training/working with the Marines in Iceland
during the Vietnam Era.

Which we still practice today as Joint or Combined Forces (Purple) either in a conflict or an exercise.

HMCS(FMF) ret

When I was at USNH Subic Bay in the mid-80’s I was assigned to the Provisional Naval Rifle Company (along with about 150 other Sailors assigned to tenant commands on the base) – the leadership was comprised of Marines from the Marine Barracks on the base. I’m sure that there was, and still is, plans at overseas bases for “provisional” teams to be stood up during crisis period.

Maybe it’s me – I don’t go around online or in person calling myself a Marine or “Half Marine” based on my time with the Marine Corps. There are men and women that EARNED that by going through basic and earning their EGA – I’m proud that I served with them and was called Doc…

Dave Hardin

Yes, there were Marines in Iceland during the 60’s and 70’s

I was one of them. Nobody in any MEGA group has ever heard of this clown.

http://www.msg-history.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=28578

AnotherPat

I know I may sound as if I am defending Maton, but rest assure, I am not, especially if one is claiming service or wearing apperals that is not in compliance with any Military regulation dealing with uniforms, decorations, etc.

Learning alot about Iceland and the Sister Services who served there. Don’t know what MEGA is. Does that group include those who served in Iceland during 1969-1972, possibly the same time period as Moten? I saw that your picture was dated 1978.

If no one in MEGA heard of him, then Moten has alot of explaining to do as to why he may be embellishing or not telling the truth. The FOIA does not lists his Duty stations.

Again, only Moten knows the truth and can clear things up by sending Jonn his official documents verifying his claims. Who knows…he might have shared his records with the Police, i.e. if they really came to his home.

And he worked for the IRS…(found newspaper articles on that as well) which is ironic based on his job with them.

Sad he had to reinvent himself using his son and strange he would wear his son’s apperal if he has no relationship with him.

Dave Hardin

I could tell you what we did in Iceland but then I would have to…you know.

I can neither confirm or deny the following:

MEGA might be the Marine Embassy Guard Association

Iceland may or may not have had a surveillance presence that tracked all Soviet sub surface, surface, and air traffic coming in and out of Soviet bases into the Atlantic.

There may or may not have been P3’s, SR 71’s, and some steely eyed missile men roaming about.

There could have been a gaggle of electronic warfare types from all branches of the service and could have been some NATO folks from undisclosed countries there as well.

Navy, Air Force and some Army types along with spooky looking civilians may have visited the Island.

All speculation of course, I was just a Jarhead who was told to walk around with guns.

Dave Hardin

Easiest way to know if anyone was stationed in Iceland is to ask them who Ma Kef was.

If they can describe that bitch…they were there.

A Proud Infidel®™

Hey James Moten, what’s your story behind all the pics of you wearing USMC hats and shirts, did your Son force you to wear them? SUE ME and if you get anything I’ll split it with you, mighty liberal of me, ain’t it?

Daniel Bernath’s Bunghole

Hey James Moten…you are a bigger asshole than even me

AnotherPat

On the 1976 newspaper article Jonn posted, Moten also blamed Sears and Roebuck for him not getting his 2nd GCM or ability to PCS to another Duty station as well as being promoted.

*Sigh*. It’s always someone elses fault for ones shortcomings,i.e. projecting the blame for their failures or poor behavior on others instead of taking responsibity for their own actions. How many times have we seen that posted here by those who embellish or lie? Or threaten Jonn with a lawsuit?

A Proud Infidel®™

He blamed Sears and Roebuck? That’s like hearing “That Guy” in the barracks blame AAFES for getting a No Pay Due because he didn’t pay up on his DPP Account!

Sgt Fon

newest member of the DRC since our favorite lawyer is currently getting his head shrunk by the state of VA?

i think this will be a fun time for all, and the fact that he use to work for the IRS makes it even more enjoyable to see this in action. ahh christmas comes early this year…

TRUE MARINE

My fellow Devil Dogs! I am the son of James Marvin Moten. I did share his story because I wanted the truth and felt I wasn’t getting it. I don’t hate James as he wrote, yes we have our problems that’s why we have never been close and barely in contact since 1996. I do hate the fact that he claims to be a Marine and never went to boot camp. Correct me if I am wrong but our title can’t be passed down, passed along, bought, traded, granted, court ordered, sued for and even the Pope himself can’t bless you with the title of a Marine. There is only one way to be called a Marine………..YOU EARN IT! Blood, sweat and pain through boot camp. We claim to be the few, the proud, the Marines for a reason. TRUE Marines know what it takes to earn that title and uphold the honor of the title. That is why we hold it so near and dear to our heart. The history of those would paid the price, who fought bravely to make the title of MARINE mean something. As a young Devil Dog I cherished the stories of Vietnam and WWII Marines and Veterans. That’s my spill on it and that is why I shared his story because he felt being temporary attached to a Marine Unit in Iceland made him a Marine and he had the right to wear Marine gear and call himself a Marine. Really? Our relationship had nothing to do with him prancing around in USMC attire and saying Semper Fi and engaging in conversation about the Marines knowing he never strapped on the boots or even wore our beautiful dress blues. To clear the record he never claimed to serve in Vietnam, he just had a Vietnam Era sticker on his car. At first glance a person can mistake it as a Vietnam Veteran sticker. He wears that not as lean but still a US Marine shirt, and that I’m an old grumpy marine shirt. Never wares any USAF gear. He never wore the corps… Read more »

Just as I initially thought: Your Father WAS attached to the Marines while stationed in Iceland and claimed Vietman Era Veteran Status (I give him credit for that).

Understand your frustration when someone wears an apperal/badge/award that gives other the wrong impression of their Military career, i.e. re-inventing themselves, because for some unknown reason, they are/were not proud enough of
how they served our country.

Thank you for sharing and providing some insight. Maybe your Father will have the courage to post here again and tell “The Rest of the Story.”

Question:

Does this make sense?

“I have been granted the status as a Marine Veteran by the Marines. They establishing internal paperwork. Thus the Chuck Hagel certificate and we are waiting the remainder. The military would not originally change and I did not understand Title X without the lawyer to address the Form 149 issues that I did not understand. Now after addressing DD214 up date. The Mariners under Title X per my lawyer has to issue honorable discharge based on a DD215 not a 214 as a supplement.”

This was a text message from James Moten last year that i found.

Green Thumb

No.

Erase this loser’s number.

MO

Does this one? Can anyone shed some light on this?

“Marines 2 years 09 02 1970 to 07 15 72. Total military 10 years. I wore Marine greens utilities and 787 gear all white. The AF has to update their DD214 per lawyer instructions to indicate Marine unit etc in the remarks. Then the Marines will provide DD215 which is a supplement to DD214.”

OR

“My lawyer who retired from NAVY showed me and Marines the error they made before I was assigned for more than 90 days during a war. VIETNAM AND COLD WAR. Thus honorable discharge is due under Title X but first AF has to up date in remarks of DD214 the Marines assignment. Thus the lawsuit I let you read.”

Another text from MOTEN. Is this all a bunch of shit? Sounds like it, but not sure.

3/17 Air Cav

He’s as full shit as a Christmas goose! Being attached to the Marines, does not make him a Marine. No way, no how!

Lawsuit? I don’t think so!

3/17 Air Cav

By wearing that ridiculous straw hat with USMC on it, only qualifies him to be a banana boat captain!

What a looser!
