Frank Fischer; phony Ranger

| January 26, 2018

Someone sent us their work on this fellow, Frank Fischer in Martinsburg, West Virginia who did an interview with the local Journal-News during which he claims to be an Army Ranger and a sniper and a paratrooper and Air Assault trained;

Fischer’s first deployment as sniper was in Waltersdorf Chaussee, Germany, along the Berlin Wall at the Czechoslovakian border.

“We stood behind the barracks’ 50-caliber machine gun the whole time,” Fischer said. “If anybody was trying to get across, we were to let them get across, and we were to try to prevent other people from shooting at them.”

Nine months later, Fischer was assigned sniper duty at the famous Cold War border stop called “Checkpoint Charlie” roughly 5 years before the historic tearing down of the Berlin Wall.

Fischer was eventually reassigned to the 75th Ranger Regiment in Turkey.

“That’s when I finally saw action,” Fischer said.

Yeah, here’s a picture that he says was taken of him in Turkey;

He struck the exact same pose in Gamboa, Panama;

His claim is still on his Facebook page;

His American Legion cap;

The Army says that he was a 13B cannon cocker in Germany and then in the 101st at Fort Campbell from 1976 – 1981. No Ranger assignments, no Ranger School.

His cap says that he was a staff sergeant (E-6) and the FOIA says that he left the Army as a private. According to his assignments, he never reached an NCO duty position during his four years of service. No Airborne School, no Air Assault training, no sniper school, no combat deployments to Grenada or Just Cause.

He might also claim to be a spokesman for Travelocity. 🙄 Frank Fischer, the garden gnome phony, was not an Army Ranger:

A phony Ranger to balance the phony SEAL; my Friday is complete.

Unless a phony Air Force PJ chimes in, that is. I guess these guys need more press, or a movie.

I’m holding out for a SEAL SPEC OPS PJ Sniper…

And then I think I should be the dream and do it myself. Is 44 too old for SEAL school?

Speaking of movies, it looks like Six (Seal Team Six) is getting ready to return to the History Channel. That’s sure to drive poser action.

oh this oughta be good….

but speaking of six, wasn’t hugely enamored with the first series. something about US troops being portrayed as war criminals within 5 minutes of episode 1 that just didn’t sit right with me.

I bet he is a real life dump ranger.

Not alot of those phoney PJ’s around. Don’t give the posers any ideas.

The Journal doesn’t care. The paper did a profile of another “Ranger” a couple of years ago that was also baloney. I wrote to the reporter and the editor and pointed out the glaring issues, that their guy was a phoney, and I offered to set them straight on how to do a modicum of independent research on their “unsung heroes.” They weren’t interested. They just don’t give a shit.

AnotherPat

2/17 Air Cav:

Wrote them as well and just as you, did not get a response (typical).

Would call them, but the last time I did that with a newspaper, they gave my phone number to the phony in question…which was a mistake on my part.

Yes the journalists are as much to blame as the phonies.

No magazine in his rifle in a combat zone cause that’s how it’s done.

He is such a bad ass he doesn’t a magazine, he spits bullets.

He is such a bad ass he doesn’t need a magazine, he shits bullets. And pisses napalm.

Doesn’t look like he has any spare mags in his magazine pouch either.

He was given only one bullet and it’s in his left moob pocket of his uniform

Jeff LPH 3, 63-66

One bullet in his left uniform pocket. Maybe he watches too many Barney Fife re runs on Me Tv.

Ncat

Hey, we’re talking about a guy who was so badassed he used a 50-cal- AS A SNIPER!

RGR 4-78

I am willing to bet he read that in the book about Carlos Hathcock.

SSG Kane

So I’m not crazy. Carlos Hathcock did use a M2 as a sniper rifle once. I swore I read it but couldn’t find it googling.

RGR 4-78

By the accounts in the book he somehow attached a scope to the M2.

IIRC he used it to shoot the bicycle an NVA soldier was using to transport supplies along the Ho Chi Mien trail?

Been a while since I read the book.

SSG Kane

Thanks.

That’s how I remember it too.

I’m at work so I can’t dig out my copy of the book, maybe when I get home.

rgr769

The M-2 had a scope mount attachment for a large starlight scope, as I watched a major firefight through one at a fire support base one night in the RVN. So, I doubt it would be difficult to modify it to take a regular rifle scope. Of course, now days we have a number of sniper purposed rifles in .50 BMG caliber.

RGR 4-78

Thanks, I did not know that.

In those pics he looks like a cross between an Airsoft Commando and “that guy” you see sitting in a bus stop constantly talking to himself all day.

And the magazine pouches looked empty too!!! Not to mention that that dude’s head was shaped different. His forehead was wider and he didn’t have a pointy grape like Private Shitstain!!

Bim

His Facebook shows a pic of him as a SSG, but the data from the FOIA report does not support that.

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=144195433504&set=pb.551333504.-2207520000.1516989863.&type=3&theater

(Sorry if it disappears)

Maybe it’s a relative, but the comments seem to indicate that it’s him (he posted that pic several times).

MrBill

That doesn’t look like any Army uniform I’ve ever seen. The caption says “R-MA 1973”. The date is before he joined the Army, and elsewhere he claims to have attended Randolph-Macon Academy, which one of his friends appears to confirm. Most likely this is a JROTC uniform.

Bim

I thought it looked a bit odd too, but I’m not well versed on Army uniforms or insignia.

Thanks for the clarification!

One clue might have been the Eagle Scout Badge hanging under the ribbons.

That’s a big No-No for active duty Army troops./smile

This is an interesting one. It may be a US pre-WW II principal musician chevron on his sleeve. Or; perhaps, a Bugler Sergeant First Class since Staff Sergeant hadn’t been invented when 4 stripes meant a SFC. If I get a chance, I’ll look farther. Based on the hair, sideburns, and old style uniform; it must be a private military prep school uniform such as my parents threatened we with if I didn’t behave.

I think it’s a rusty trombone.

My dad did time on the Czeck boarder in 73, he never called it the wall or Berlin Wall.

He does have a funny story of a color blind PVT who thought he had caught an Czeck officer but had really caught a local police officer who woke him up while sleeping on guard duty.

“Now retired, Fischer is actively involved in both American Legion Post 14 in Berkeley County, where he is second vice commander, and at VFW Post 896 in Martinsburg…….”

Looks like someone didn’t do their proper vetting at VFW Post 386.

http://myvfw.org/wv/post896/

NHSparky

Or the Legion. Does nobody know how to read a 214 anymore, or are some Posts just that fucking hard up for warm live bodies?

2/17 Air Cav

Well, he did serve and it’s the AL, not VFW, so he qualified. However, now that he has been profiled as an unsung hero by the local rag, he is bringing discredit upon the post. Of course, if he usually buys at the bar, they may be willing to overlook his bullshit.

NHSparky

He doesn’t meet the required eligibility dates. Vietnam Era eligibility ended 5/7/75 and Lebanon/Grenada wasn’t until 1982.

He is a no-go at both stations based on his FOIA dates of service.

NHSparky

And given the fact he was shown the door as an E-1, I’d be real curious to see the type of discharge he was handed.

Because even if he had served during an eligible period (which he didn’t), the Legion requires either current active service or an honorable discharge.

I think getting booted as a Private at the 5-year point would throw up some big red flags.

2/17 Air Cav

Okay, I surrender. I was unaware that there were date restrictions for the AL.

Claw

Cav, it makes no difference whether the AL has campaign restrictions or not.

You can become a AL member and have never served not even one day in uniform.

Think Associate Canteen member, Sons of the American Legion, or Patriot Guard Riders.

None of those programs require service to join.

You just can’t be a voting member of the post. But all other activities are open to them.

2/17 Air Cav

Got it, Claw. Thanks.

Martinjmpr

Looks like he was in 2/78 FA, 1st Armored Division in Bamberg, North of Nuremberg.

WRT his duty as a “sniper” in Waltersdorf, the only Waltersdorf I could find in Germany is Southeast of Berlin and firmly in the Soviet zone of occupation, so if Fischer served there he was either in the National Volksarmee (NVA, the East German Army) or the Soviet 20th Guards Army.

Still trying to find where that 250 mile spur of the Berlin Wall stretched down to Czechoslovakia though. That must have made travel through the southern part of the DDR pretty difficult. 😉

Ex-PH2

Probably went around the Fulda Gap – something like that. Memory gets hazy when you get the gray stuff, y’know.

Gee, he was in just in time to miss the Viet of the Nam. How exciting that must have been for him!

SFC D

I’m thinking he took one in the Fulda gap

Combat Historian

Dude was such a dedicated professional soldier that he served with 2/78 FA from Monday through Friday, then crossed over the line to serve with the Red Army 20th Guards during the weekends; kind of like that episode in “Hogan’s Heroes” when POW Carter was drafted into the Wehrmacht while he was out on a secret mission…

From the Newspaper Article:

“Fischer was eventually reassigned to the 75th Ranger Regiment in Turkey.
“That’s when I finally saw action,” Fischer said.”

I may be wrong, but don’t remember the 75th being in Turkey at the time he said we were.

I think he read a fiction book titled “Apocalypse Dawn” and used it as his own story:

You can read portions of the book on Google Books.

Well, TAH readers wanted a Phony RANGER, so there you go…have screened shot alot of his claims and pictures in case his FACEBOOK goes POOF! He also claims on his FACEBOOK that he started RANGER School in 1973 and left in 1982 (what????)

” I would like to volunteer. I would volunteer to alert you to the false claims of your 2nd vice. Frank Fischer makes some very outrageous claims, that once known, reflect against the integrity of your post. He left service as an E-1. He claims, but was not, Airborne, Air Assault, Ranger, Sniper. He stands in the blood of better men than him in making such claims. He was an artilleryman, nothing more, nothing less. He did not serve on the Berlin Wall in Czechoslovakia, as claimed. Hell the Berlin wall was in Berlin. Hearing his phony claims caused others to use an FOIA and come up with his true records. Exposing him and his lies will give him world wide fame at Gooooogle, with every online comment using his name, making him famous.

Don’t forget to add these claims!

“Two years later, Fischer was transferred down to Panama in 1983 where he took part in a covert Army operation named “Urgent Fury” to rescue medical staff from the True Blue Medical Hospital in Grenada.

Now a staff sergeant, Fischer re-upped in the Army in time to take part in Operation “Just Cause” where his Ranger regiment was deployed to Panama to capture Panamanian Gen. Manuel Noriega.

“It was the hardest action I’d ever seen,” Fischer said. “The whole 75th Ranger Regiment went into Panama. We landed at Noriega’s beach house. That action was enough to scare it out of me. It was quick — 4 or 5 days. It was night time — there was gun tracer fire all over the place. The group I was in landed on Noriega’s beach trying to get up into the jungle to his compound. “

He also said he was honorably discharged from the Army in 1990, yet his records indicate 1981.

Again, so disappointed the Reporter and the Journal fell for his lies (Fake News). Glad to see comments on the article.

BTW, does that Dude look a liitle like DB?

Claw

“BTW, does that Dude look a little like DB?”

I think Frank Fischer more closely resembles some other fellow we know that wears an unearned Air Assault Badge. I wonder if Frank Fischer also owns a Santa Claus suit?

Anyway, the skinny on that outfit Frank Fischer was assigned to for five months at Campbell is this:

2/31 FA was a Corps level General Support 155 (not 105’s) Battalion attached (not assigned) to the 101st during that time frame. So it’s highly unlikely that any of the 2/31 unit members even made it onto a tentative roster for attendance at the Air Assault School.

But there it is anyway. An AAB and Airborne Wings pinned to his AL Cunt Cap, an Air Assault T-Shirt, and to top it off a Cold War Veteran ball cap with an NDSM.

I’m sure all those unearned stripes, medals and badges make Frank Fischer “highly decorated” in his own mind./smile

AnotherPat

Claw, we are on the same wavelength. Was getting ready to comment that I hope this Dude does not justify his Bullwinkle Badge by saying he was “Honorary Air Assault and had a certificate from Campbell to prove it. Speaking of that, someone has been very quiet for a while. BTW, thought he was discharged as a SP4 because of an Article 15 (he made that comment on TAH), but on other sites, he identifies himself as a SGT. Oh, well.

Claw

Roger.

Here’s hoping that someone stays very quiet for eternity.

Identifying himself as a SGT? That’s the least of his worries if he shows up here again in a Santa Claus suit./smile

Ken moneagle

Can you point me to where this is stated- was discharged as a SP4 because of an Article 15 (he made that comment on TAH) I searched and cannot locate it

Kenneth:

We were commenting about someone else, not Ff.
Sorry about the confusion. Thank You again for doing the right thing. Just wish the Journal would do the same thing.

When he mentions Panama, are we sure he’s not mispronouncing that he’s done lots of juicy bananas out in the alley behind The Blue Oyster?

The only operation named “Urgent Fury” he’s been in is sitting on the toilet after a visit to Taco Bell.

Who knew we had Ranger snipers at Check Point Charlie in Berlin. When I went through there in 1969 all I saw was a couple of MP’s.

Jonn: The post commander at AMLEG Post 14 WVA just contacted me, doing followup on the message that I sent him. He has talked to you not too long ago regarding someone else. He is on this, and will keep us informed on what he learns and does. We had a very good conversation, from beginning to end, and shared feelings, stories, and I feel that he is 100% sincere, and will be taking Phony Frank Fischer to the woodshed. Incidentally, he was not an officer when Fischer joined that post, and had nothing to do with his membership approval.

Kenneth Moneagle

thanks again-

AnotherPat

Thank YOU, Kenneth.

Just wishful thinking on my part that The Journal would update their story with the truth so that FF’s community is aware of his misleading stories.

2/17 Air Cav

Uh-oh. This probably means that Frankie will have his parade participation license revoked.

AnotherPat

Or be banned from the Golden Corral…😉

Dude used to live in Las Vegas. Am sure he learned or knew how to bluff (or even conned) folks.

The sad part is that alot of folks on his Facebook believed him…and “honored” him for being a Vet. Something must have happened that he got out as a PVT (with no GCM?). Perhaps he did have an alcohol problem while in the Army and was Chaptered out…and is ashamed of his past behavior, thus making up a facade of his military service, especially on Social Media. Just a speculation.

Frankie Cee

Oh crap! Have my “parade participation license revoked”? I dint do nuffin. I just exposed a phony to the commander of the post that the guy is in. I should be made grand marshal of the parade, (or something).

2/17 Air Cav

Sorry, Frankie. I was not referring to you but to the subject of this thread. Your parade participation license cannot be revoked.

Frankie Cee

Aaah, I was concerned.

AnotherPat

Thank you, FC, for doing this.

Now if only the Journal would do an update on their story and tell the truth about Frankie Boi, the “CatFischer” to guillible newspaper reporters.

2/17 Air Cav

Naw. They like a good story, whether it’s true or not.

AnotherPat

You got a point, 2/17 Air Cav…😊

Glad to see you are feeling better these days…that suppository Antibiotics must have worked!

rgr769

Now days, anyone claiming to be a “reporter” or journalist is just another propagandist pusher of fake news. They don’t have either the inclination or the time to verify anything, especially if the facts won’t support some angle they are pushing. A former Ranger combat vet story is sexy, why wreck it by the discovery it is fake.

HMCS(FMF) ret

They dropped the “Fact Checking 101” at j-school a long, long time ago…

AnotherPat

If The Journal did two inaccurate stories, then IMO, their credibilty is NADA.

Wonder what “unsung Hero” will be interviewed next for their paper?

SFC D

The truth is what they tell you the truth is.

SFC D: Are you speaking about CNN, the Washington Post, MSNBC, HRC/WJC, Brian Williams…the lists goes on… 😉

Also, let us not forget the proud creator of the Gunga Dan Line, Dan “Fake but Accurate” Blather.

And ANOTHER News Media fell for Fischer’s claim for Panama and 12 years of Active Duty. Check out the Video link and story I posted below. And check out what he is wearing on his jacket. The video/story was published on Christmas Day 2017. Ho-Ho-Ho…

So many 13 Bravo’s have been busted faking the funk on here I don’t know why. I don’t know what the hell the problem is I’ve always loved my time being a 13 Bravo , Cannon Cocker, gun bunny , Joe humping ,blue steel rod ,red leg ,artilleryman.

rgr769

To be fair, let’s not overlook all those wiredogs and other assundry commo REMFs who have also resorted “faking the funk” about their imagined combat daring do.

Frankie Cee

Pissed at him or pissed at us?

O-4E

At us. Well me in particular

Frankie Cee

His Post Commander will be straightening his poser ass out. On his American Legion hat, he has more unearned awards than earned. He was not in the 1st Armored, not Panama, not Airborne, not Air Assault, Not E-6. Bringing dishonor to the very post that he sits in the 2nd vice chair. The commander and I agree that if he will lie about something as special as his military service that there is nothing that he won’t lie about.

AnotherPat

FC: Hopefully when CatFischer Frank is confronted, someone will ask him to identify his RANGER Class # as well as showing his DD214.

God help us if he tries to pull the Saint Louis fire..or that his records are “sealed” or explain he is an “Honorary” Air Assault, Airborne, RANGER, SSG…or that he all the “stuff” he wears on his Legion cap belongs to his Father, Grandfather, Brother, Uncle..and that he wears them to “honor” them (Gee…where have we heard those explanations before 😉)

Thank you again for doing this.

Green Thumb

The Post Commander is probably a turd as well.

Turds in the same bowl stick together.

AnotherPat

Green Thumb: To be fair, Frankie Cee has been corresponding with the Post Commander and will be dealing with Frank CatFischer on his lies. Seriously doubt he is a “turd” since he is stepping up to the plate. IMO, he has integrity. According to FC, he was not with that AL when CatFischer joined, so it looks as if he will be cleaning up the mess that CatFischer created.

Frankie Cee

Green Thumb, you are 180 degrees out on this one. He was not the Post commander when Fischer joined. The commander gets lots of flak from membership about his demands for transparency and honesty among the leadership. He will attend to this, and, according to a conversation with him a couple of hours ago, he is already on it, having talked to the district adjutant and to others in the post leadership.

O-4E

Best thing he can do is bring in outside leadership to do the investigation and an audit of any and every program this guy has ever had his fingers in.

Spoken as a former Post Commander

Green Thumb

Fair enough.

Roger.

Green Thumb

There is an AL Post Commander in my neck of the woods that has a General Discharge.

I will be damned if I ever set foot in there.

RetiredDevilDoc8404

Yeah, they’ll do that. Especially if the member has a paid up life membership, they manage to hold considerable sway and get away with a lot of BS. I dealt with it when I was in the local Legion, saw a lot of crap that I’m not going into now; let’s just say I’m unwilling to join another post AL or VFW because of it. They’d rather have a lying SOS non-rate who paid for a life membership than a dues paying member who actually earned the right to be a member…

Hey Frank Fischer AKA Santa Claus………you’re a fuckin liar you piece of shit!!!! Santa Claus is coming to google!!

DECORATIONS AND AWARDS:

NONE

A Proud Infidel®™

Maybe he was stripped of all decorations and awards and busted to E1 as the result of a Court Martial?

Claw

My bet is he was finally busted down to Private E-1 as a result of numerous Article 15s for being a drunk.

He served his five years during a time period when the only medals/ribbons that could be awarded on a normal basis to lower enlisted was either the ARCOM or a GCM.(Good Cookie)

Based on reading his “bio”, he seemed to have a penchant for staying buried in a bottle. As a result, he was not recommended by his Commanders for either award.

Some people who couldn’t legally drink in the states found Germany to be hog heaven for a 19 or 20 year old single soldier.

So his outfit in Germany probably had about all they could stand of him (after he returned) and finally shit canned his ass with a General Discharge.

A Proud Infidel®™

Yeah, if that was the case I wouldn’t be even one bit surprised. Those who were dirtbags, slugs or terminally mediocre during their time in Service are often ones who come up with shit like he did.

So much stupid.. so little time to make fun of or destroy…

Enough said.

Here is ANOTHER Story/Video (turn on your sound!) about CatFischer Frank that was published on 25 December 2017:

http://www.localdvm.com/news/maryland/two-veterans-share-their-previous-holidays-spent-overseas/888178640

In the article, Fischer is quoted as saying “Through all of the seasons of giving, he remembers one year in he will not forget.

“In Panama, we were actually fighting Noriega’s troops and they brought up hot soup for Christmas day,” said Fischer.”

There is a Video of him on the above link making this statement. It also has going across the screen that he served 12 years on Active Duty.

He is wearing an Air Assault patch on his jacket..and it looks as if he claiming to be a Legion Rider.

Sparks

Queef

ConcernedCitizen(Soldier)

Just one question (of many). How does he have a photo showing him serving in Turkey with the 101st in 1975 when he stated he joined the Army on July 30, 1976? Is he one of those “Time travelers” I heard about? Is he here to kill Sarah Conner?

AnotherPat

You nailed it, ConcernedCitizen(Soldier) on those 1975 date. That is what he posted in his Facebook account, but gave the guillible Reporter the 1976 date.

2/17 Air Cav and others are right about the Journal and their lack of interest in correcting a story. But what can you say when the Reporter himself failed to do some fact-checking.

Perhaps their next story WILL be about the Terminator (“I’ll Be Back!”..or “Get Into The Choppa!”)..or Aliens invading their own back yard…or Bigfoot running amok the locals…or someone waking up in a hotel with their kidney missing…or Elvis is alive and well working at the local grocery store with Jimmy Hoffa and James Dean…😉

I have contacted both the paper and TV station. The editor at the paper responded, is new to her position, and said she would research it and get back to me.

AnotherPat

Thank you for doing this.

Frankie Cee

I have been in conversation with the Post Commander at American Legion post 14 Martinsburg, W Virginia. He and his adjutant are investigating, and they too smell a rat. They are scheduled for a sit down with Frank Fischer tomorrow, Thursday, 2/1/18 where they plan to ask him some hard questions. I have suggested several questions about his Ranger School, that would trip him up. They too are curious about how he found the Berlin wall in Czechoslovakia, and several other questionable things in his stories. This Post Commander is on a mission to clean up the name of the post, and sweep the floor thoroughly.

Ex-PH2

The part about the Berlin Wall in Czechoslavakia is priceless. I’m still laughing about that.

It’s also rather strange that he never made it past PVT.

Frankie Cee

Today, Frank Fischer, when confronted by his American Legion Post Commander, and Adjutant, chose to resign his position as 2nd Vice Commander in the post. He had no rebuttal to them when they asked about the differences in his true service record and the one he claimed. An inept journalist at the Martinsburg W Virginia “Sentinel” newspaper published a story about his military past, and didn’t catch that he was a phony. Not even when he said that he had served on the Berlin Wall, in Czechslovakia. There are a small percentage of former military that claim false honor, but a very high percentage of reporters that are very lacking in journalistic skills. The one who reported this is one:

AnotherPat

Wow…Thank You, Frankie Cee, for the update!

And again, wishful thinking on my part, but hopefully the newspaper and Maryland news station will update the story with the truth.

Wonder what all those folks who defended him on The Journal Facebook are going to say now ? Send them (on Facebook) some “Love” as other TAH members have already done..😉

HMCS(FMF) ret

Looks like the link to the story doesn’t work any more…

The Journal may have pulled it.

I wonder if they will print a follow-up with the truth, since they helped sell the lie.

Here is the link to the Journal on the story:

Here is the link to the TV News Station on his story:

Fischer has now changed his FACEBOOK…well, kinda. He still has the picture of him in Turkey “with the 75th”..

Love the comments that Frankie Cee left him on his FACEBOOK.

For those who have FACEBOOK, send Fischer some “Love”!

Frankie Cee

Sometime in the night, last night, he blocked me. I suppose that will scrub any of the comments that I left.

RGR 4-78

That is a great comment you have on the Journal’s article.

2/17 Air Cav

Frankie Cee. Good work. You get things done. Hat tip to the post commander for not hemming and hawing on this.

AnotherPat

Ditto.

Now it is time for the Journal to step up to the plate and tell the truth about Fischer…

Claw

Comment #200.

Catfischer Frank makes it to the show.

Frankie Cee

Define please, Claw, your comment suggests that he has come to TAH with a comment. I cannot find one.

Claw

No, I didn’t mean that Catfischer had come on TAH.

It was a baseball reference to mean he made it out of the minor leagues by having at least 200 comments attributed to his shitbaggery.

The Chief

I think Claw was just saying that there’s now 200 comments on this clown. It’s an elite ass-clown threshold. He should get a toaster or something

AnotherPat

The CatFischer got caught in the tangled fishweb he weaved…😉

He defintely CatFisched the Journal Reporter who feel for his story, hook, line and sinker..
