So, here you go. I won’t even go through the uniform violations again. Tomorrow at 8:30 AM I will be on the phone with the FBI in Houston. Now, read some of this guy’s horsehit:

After 20 years in the U.S. Army, I was forced to retire due to the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy that forbids gay men and women from serving openly in the US Military.
At the HRC (Human Rights Campaign) Equality Ball at the Mayflower Hotel, those of us who have been a vocal force against this damaging and unconstitutional policy are quite confident that our new Commander-in-Chief President Barack Obama will sign an Executive Order to abolish the “DADT” policy. Yes We Can!

And, more with shifting retirement dates. Don’t you just love a blog swarm?
While stationed in Frankfurt, Germany in 1986, then-Sergeant McManus served as Then-General Colin Powell’s personal bodyguard and interpreter; Sergeant McManus came out of the closet as a gay man in 1993 at a Memorial Weekend Requiem in San Francisco honoring the Unknown Lesbian/Gay/Bisexual Soldiers
U.S. Army Captain Michael McManus revealed that General Colin Powell knew he was gay while McManus was serving as his personal bodyguard, and that it made no difference to the general. While stationed in Frankfurt, Germany in 1986, then Sergeant McManus served as Powell’s bodyguard and interpreter, and it was during that time that Sgt. McManus “came out” to him, confiding to him that he was gay.
According to McManus, Gen. Powell, who was at that time the commander of the U.S. Army Fifth Corps, replied, “What do you want me to do about it? As long as youare doing your job well, that does not matter to me. And you are doing an excellent job.”
Capt. McManus came out of the closet as a gay man publicly on Saturday May 29, 1993 at a Memorial Weekend Requiem in San Francisco honoring the Unknown Lesbian/Gay/Bisexual Soldiers. The event was sponsored by the San Francisco Area chapter of the GLAAD and endorsed by many organizations, including the Alexander Hamilton Post of the American Legion.
McManus chose the San Francisco requiem event as the time to come out publicly because he “can no longer be a part of an organization that promotes and supports such blatant discrimination. It is time for people to realize that sexual orientation is a fundamental part of a person’s identity, just as being Asian or African-American.”
Capt. McManus [in 1993] planned on being vocal about the military’s gay and lesbian ban. He served in the U.S. Army Reserves and holds a top secret security clearance. Still fighting the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy, Michael retired from the US Army in Feb. 2008 at the rank of LTC (Lieutenant Colonel).
You will notice that this no-talent asclown claims to be buddhist above. Well From the Great Donovan, we find this:
We have received information from the office of HH Dalai Lama that Tenzin Chophak ( Michael Mc Manus) did not have an Audience with His Holiness Dalai Lama on Oct.14 ’99, at which he said he had received the Tsogyal Dzambala Practice, to benefit Land of Medicine Buddha..
While at LMB we gave Tenzin Chophak more than adequate opportunity to improve his work perfomance and in no way was he mistreated.

10 bucks says the little puke never served.
BTW: Easy on the superior species thingy. I know, I have a hard time with bringing the others back to reality after they realize that us fine stock from the fatherland are actually the superior species. 🙂
Another POS about to meet the FBI. Good job, TSO and TAH.
Maybe he and Monica Lewinsky were in competion? Is he the one that outed her?
10 bucks says the little puke never served.
No way I’m takin’ that bet….as bad as he screwed up that uni….
Alright Cav, you owe me a monitor, since you didn’t put up a spew alert!!!!
Yeah, his buddy Obama really jumped on the repeal of DADT, didn’t he?
If I find this dogturd roaming around Houston I’ll take care of it, no worries.
So anyone got a buddy or contact in the SAS to give them a heads up on this douche? I expect they would want to have a few words with him
[…] Valor- Not even slick about it edition UPDATE: I hate these guys. TSO at This Ain’t Hell eviscerates these guys. Seriously, if you are some loser thinking about claiming honors that […]
Grand idea, Nucsnipe!!
I think you should put yourself in for a medal for that idea. Maybe you can get one off douchebags uniform? Take your pick, I’m sure none of them are actually his.
And I thought that it might of been “Little Jimmy Billings” playing dress up…my bust!
[…] good friend over at thisainthell.com has compiled a lot of the information about this a**hole. I am re-posting it […]
Naw, I took pride in the fact I didn’t get a Navy Achievement Medal until I retired.
No thanks.
Man, this guy hasn’t got a clue about the amount of flak about to riddle him. I also agree that he likely never served. First off, he doesn’t look old enough to have put in 20 years, and to not have a clue about all the awards he was wearing is, well.. indicative of a true blue falcon crapweasel.
Seriously, I just don’t get these guys, but I certainly WANT to see him get his just deserts.

In the CNN iReport, his lapel is red. He has 2 jackets, one red and one blue?
LL: It could be the light or maybe he has a jacket for each branch of the army Red-Artillery, Blue-Infantry Not sure of the colors for Armor(gold?) and Air(mauve heh heh)
Holyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy sheepshit. This guy is nutty than squirrel turds, as stable as Plutonium-laced nitro-glycerin, and as honest as a teenage boy trying to get laid at a college party.
Apparently one of the local Houston TV stations caught wind of this story through CDR Salamander’s blog and is all over this. Dude’s gonna start wishing he hadn’t been such an attention whore.
Retired in ’08 after 20 years of service. Was a Sergeant stationed in Germany in ’86. How many years does it usually take to get promoted to Sergeant? Something a bit off there.
You literally couldn’t make it up if you tried–except this guy HAS! One has GOT to give him points for originality, if something less than for total fidelity to either hearldric accuracy or personal honor–deductions for that–as well as style points. At least he could have been as 1930s “forward fashion” stylish as the people that costumed Flash Gorden and Ming the Merciless for those old art deco-inspired B&W movies. (Even our favorite villain Ming had a more rakish goatee)
Nucsnipe, I know those general officers are a vain group…maybe he color coordinates for which ribbons and awards he plans to wear?
Brass: Apparently he has perfected time travel as well. If he retired in 08 after 20 he entered in 88. So figure 4 years to Sgt, so he traveled back in time in 92 to 86.
PS: Oh, and Gall–LOTS & LOTS of that. To use my favorite saying: “A Lake-Superior-sized vessel full of unmitigated gall.” (PPS: I’m actively considering substituting for “Pacific”–him being a Stanford PhD and all….)
This mutt is a blivet. A blivet is defined as 10lbs of horseshit in a 5lb bag.
AW1, do you know which station?
I’m sure his defense will be that if Patton and MacArthur could fashion their own uniforms (And Eisenhower too–hence the “Eisenhower Jacket”) so can he. Unfortunately for him he isn’t within the next Galaxy’s distance of being either of the aforementioned three….
HFS, Batman. This guy had the wanna-be” syndrome,B.A.D.! UFB. Good job, TSO. I hunted Parker’s facebook of fans to see if I could find the turd. Alas, I had to abort to attend an appointment.
Awesome!!Now if we can just sic the law on.

I’m assuming the FOIA request is already on the way for his records (if any). Of course since today is a gov holiday, it may take til tomorrow.
Quick note:
At the time this guy says he was at DLI (defense language institute) you couldn’t “test out” of languages.
also he says during his time at DLI “Special Operation Forces w/ a speciality in Personal Protection Details, Intelligence and PSYOPS (Psychological Operations) – they don’t teach any of that stuff at DLI either.
this loser needs a dirt nap.
Someone know how to get in contact with someone at DLI to find out who won soldier of the year for 1985?
TSO, I think you have done Claymore a disservice, since Claymore’s stories are much better than anything this little bastard can come up with. Plus, Claymore is much more entertaining.

Thanks, I just emailed them.
I think the feathered wings are definitely his look. Too bad he just didn’t stick to wearing those to the party. I’m sure he would’ve livened things up a bit.
The lapels of his dress mess in the photo are royal blue which the aviation color. Infantry is a powder blue shade. So he couldn’t even get that right.
He can’t even get the wings right.
The Kitchen Dispatch:
Is that the “General” under super-duper deep cover while on a covert OP?
Are we sure he is not with a Village People tribute group?
Dammit, I hate to be a pain but the lapel is oriental blue. MI is the branch. And I’m pretty sure he DID serve and that he did go to DLI. The rest is ALL pure BS. I went to DLI and spent 21 years in MI and I dealt with crapsacks like him all the time. Occupational hazard in MI…
I think I agree with you FOMSG. I think he did serve and was at DLI. All that other shit, not so much.
Again, the one that pisses me off is the CIB. The others as well, but I leave to others getting pissed about people claiming awards they got, like the PH.
I have contacted DLI and hope to hear back.
BTW- just a note, but apparently nothing on military.com or AKO on this guy.
Maybe he’s a soldier like Tom Hanks was a naval officer in Philadelphia?
And storming the Beachs at Normandy at the same time.
He must a “PSYOPS” expert, considering spell PSYOP correctly.
Ok, he served, we’ll give him that. A purple heart (that one pisses me off the most), the CIB, and 2 DSC’s? Really? Not to mention the silver stars (anyone see clusters?) and multi-national qualification badges.
That SAS badge will hopefully get him hospitalized if they catch up with him.
