Highest Military Rank – General “D”
In the Stolen Valor section of reddit, they introduce a man found on a park bench in Washington, D.C. and, well, uh… I think he speaks about himself in a way that I never could. So, here is “General ‘D’”… . . . There is no indication that this was staged or a spoof […]
Donald Eugene Lee – Phony Vietnam Vet Back on the Radar
A while back, Jonn Lilyea wrote about Donald Eugene Lee, a phony Vietnam veteran. Lee did serve during the Vietnam War, so can say he was a “Vietnam Times” soldier, but his bling and claims went beyond that. It’s clear that he promoted himself as being in the Viet of the Nam. The original case […]

Larry Walsh is serving as a County Commissioner in Douglas County Nevada and had claimed […]
John Grandizio, Green Beret…NOT!! – Guardians of the Green Beret
Our friends at Guardians of the Green Beret bring us their case on John Grandizio. It seems that being a legit Wounded Warrior was not enough for Johnny so he added a bunch of ribbon salad and promoted himself. John Grandizio was brought to our attention by a member of a Ranger Regiment forum […]

Private Mike Sleeper; Discharged Under Other Than Honorable Conditions, but is still not, and never will be a Real Army Ranger.
We get calls all the time requesting that a blog on someone be taken down. We posted about Mike Sleeper HERE and HERE in years past. If we turn our backs on these clowns for any period of time they try to re-invent their story. That’s why it’s generally best to leave the post up, […]
