Mike Sendejas; phony in TX

| June 5, 2013

Sendejas

Scotty sends a link to his latest phony, Mike Sendejas down in Galveston, TX who pretends to be an E-4 (I guess his sights aren’t set very high) with a CIB and basic parachutist wings. At least this phony isn’t shooting for the moon but he’s a phony nonetheless

Sendejas Foia

Yeah, he has records, just not military;

Sendejas mugshot

And he wears a triple canopy, of course;

Sendejas triple canopy

I thought that, because he wasn’t claiming all kinds of wild medals and ranks that he might be in the Guard or something, which would explain why the NPRC would have his records if he was still on active duty ot the Guard, but, nope, nothing on AKO for anyone with a name even even similar to his. There were eight Sendejas, none were E-4s and none had any variation of “Mike” in their names.

So much easier to just go to the local surplus store and buy all the bling than actually place your ass on the line to obtain it.
Fuck, I was nothing but one in thousands of Paratroopers, but it came at a cost to not just myself but so many others even in peace time. I have seen friends crippled for life, have seen others killed.. just to maintain the right to wear some of the shit he went out and bought for pennies.
Our Brothers lives are worth much more than that you snivelling little shitbag… fuckers. Moral and physical cowardice are that Posers best attributes.

Combat Historian

Wow, that’s a load of tabs there on his shoulder; all he needs is a “SAPPER” tab to complete his poser tab collection…

NHSparky

Showing my ignorance of Army shit here, but if he was an 11- or 18-series, wouldn’t he be a Corporal and not a Specialist as well?

Combat Historian

There were lots of Specs in the 11 series, at least when I was an 11 Charlie way back in the paleozoic era; not sure about the 18 SF series, though…

MAJMike

Well, I earned my “Guns and Coffee” patch fair and square.

Pineywoods NCO

Morning, everyone.

Mike…

How about you make a trip about 4 hours due north.

I will give you your first lesson by introducing you to FM 22-102.

Bring a spatula. Someone will need to use it to scrape your sorry ass off the concrete when I finished with your lesson.

Then I will send you four hours to the southwest to The Great Place in care of my former brigade CSM, who will make what’s left of your life a living hell.

Bobo

NH Sparky – he could be a SPC as an 11 series. Technically, any E-4 not in an NCO position (typically a team leader) would be a SPC. The team leader would be a CPL. My very limited knowledge of the 18 series guys leads me to believe that anyone who is tabbed and completed SFQC would at least be a SGT. I’ve only seen one SGT wearing a long tab, and he was a NY ARNG soldier who showed up in Afghanistan who was so jacked up I called some folks to see if he had actually completed the “Q”. He had, but was a problem child and had been busted at least once and was on the hook for something else at the MOB station.

NHSparky

So 11-series, possible albeit unlikely, 18-series all but impossible because it’s almost certain they’d be a SGT at least unless they’re Soup Sandwich.

But again, we see for the 10,000th time that someone who does SV almost certainly has other “issues” with the law, etc. Gee, color me surprised.

NR Pax

He could have just stopped at 11B and E-4 and been under the radar. But noooo…he had to evolve into full retard.

A Proud Infidel & Patriot

I hereby personally award him the title of SbFC, SHITBIRD, FIRST CLASS!! That snotworm fits right in with Phillip Dale Monkress & Paul Wickre (Yeah, GOOGLE HIT!!!)! I see a difference in his patches and tabs between photos, I assume he’s in the “Patch & Tab of the Day Club”.

SHITBIRD FIRST CLASS!!

NHSparky

They usually do, Pax. Thank God I’ve yet to run into a guy posing as a nuke or bubblehead. Nobody wants to do that. Almost nobody, anyway. Had one guy (Yeoman) on my first boat claim to some Japanese tourist at Wave Waikiki he was a nuke. That stopped the minute I told him to be on the boat for precrit at 0200 and startup at 0300. He still found plenty of ways to be a dirtbag, tho–heard he got booted not long after I left there.

Hondo

NHSparky: one caution about assuming no SF tabs below E5.

I don’t know if it’s still common, but at one point the Army had an 18X enlistment option. That enlistment option guaranteed the guy enlisting a shot at SF training, assuming they passed both IET and basic airborne school. Timing was such that the individual would finish training with about 1 year in service (somewhat longer for SF Medics) – most likely as a PFC.

In the early 1980s, the SF Groups would get a few folks with Signal and MI MOSs who’d been through that or a similar enlistment program straight out of the “Q” course. Those individuals were typically assigned to the Group’s Signal or MI companies to get some experience supporting operations, then (if good and willing) would later move on to an ODA.

Don’t know if the Army still does that. But if such a program still exists, there could be a few very junior guys out there with legit SF tabs.

For this guy, it’s a moot point. Not in AKO = not SF, period.

Ex-PH2

Hey, guys! While you were all bitching and moaning about this dorkwad, you missed one VERY important thing:

Those can o’ peas on his left shoulder are stuck on with iron-on tape. They are NOT sewn on.

Obviously, this makes him a temp phony, no matter how he ‘phonies up’, doesn’t it?

I mean, he could just switch those rockers in a heartbeat with some other important rocker or tab or bling job. Wouldn’t take but a second or two. Think about it.

Bobo

Ex-PH2, that is actually how we do things now in the new and improved Army – Velcro. Welcome to the ACU. The only benefit is that I can change combat patches depending on how I feel.

Ex-PH2

I have been enlightened again. Thanks, Bobo.

ChelseaTrosclair

I’m so glad I sent you his info! I’m ashamed to say I know him and dated him in the past. Years before he started to claim this shit. He is pathetic and I apologize on his behalf for disrespecting the true soldiers! I come from a military family so this really pissed me off but I’m glad he has been caught! Thank you so much for putting this up

Instinct

No need for you to apologize for this shitbags actions. 🙂

ChelseaTrosclair

What’s funny though is that he claimed to be navy for the longest. Then he said he was going to ranger school….well I come from a navy family and most of my friends are in either the navy or army so I knew he had to be lying because last time I checked…there’s no navy ranger lol. Idk he’s a dumb ass and a disgrace

Scotty

Send him a copy of his BoS & the link to this post Chelsea. We would all love to hear what he has to say for himself.

OEF_Veteran

Actually in many 11B units even Team Leaders are E-4/SPC. They have pretty much done away with Corporal until the soldier is in position to be promoted, usually within 90 days, and they have passed PLDC/WLC. Even back in my days of AD I rarely saw a non promotable Corporal in my Infantry units.

MAJMike

I can wear my PowerPoint Ranger badge, can’t I? Its full-color and really pretty. Patton knows, I earned it as a staff puke.

10th MTN NCO

I always wondered what these impersonaters are thinking when they sit in a barbers chair and ask for a high & tight lol. Do you think he tries to pass himself off to the barber as he gets his hair cut? What is wrong with these ppl?

NR Pax

@16: You shouldn’t feel the need to apologize on his behalf.

Virtual Insanity

WTF with the tongue? STOP!

Ex-PH2

I have a GREAT idea: since these clowns want the bling and the bennies and the rep, once they show up some place like TAH, they should be required to spend a minimum of 18 months on active duty, maybe in live fire exercises or something, in the company of the people they’re copying. And they should ALWAYS have duty cleaning and burning the crappers.

If they live through that,then they can still have the bling they earn, but ONLY the bling that they actually earn.

A Proud Infidel & Patriot

Okay, it’s GAME ON with this sniveling SHITBIRD, I just enlarged the first photo and noticed he’s sporting a 2ID patch, that was my first AD unit right out of Boot Camp/AIT, and I EARNED the right to wear it when I was there! I say we lobby for “National Pound a Poser Month” where any real Vet is allowed to physically pound the shit & piss out of as many confirmed posers as he or she wants to every day. During the rest of the year, Real Vets will only be allowed to physically beat down 12 posers every 24 hours.

Sparks

Back in my Vietnam time as an 11 Bravo and the best I made was E-4 Specialist. (I really wanted to be a Corporal and NCO though! :D)

Warning…bullshit ahead…
By the way if I go through the grab bag down at the surplus store can I be a SF/Airborne/Ranger too? “I want to be an Airborne Ranger” was a song we sang when I was a kid. I still know all the words so can I, please? I can even be a secret, no DD-214, squirrel with 2500 sniper kills who played ass grab with a pre-don’t ask, don’t tell, fellow SEAL…crap I let the secret out! (we were ahead of the times and really “down in the Delta”, if you know what I mean. :D). Yea I was an Army SEAL too, went right from AIT to being a SEAL because I could do more push-ups than the rest of the platoon. We were SEAL Team A :D. (I can’t wear the Trident because my records are sealed for the SOD eyes only.) But my bud was a CIA SEAL, didn’t even know his name but he wore a three piece suit instead of a uniform. But he had the thousand yard stare that would warm up a can of Ham and M@therF@ckers.

Caveat, please note, the previously typed paragraph was tongue in cheek. I just needed to amuse myself this morning.

I was just a simple grunt who was proud to serve and did the best job I could do. That is enough for me and always will be.

Sparks

@25 I retract my last post. 12 beatdowns in 24 hours is a f@cking lot to take! 😀 But I agree with you 110%. Should be a law to allow an ass whoopin’ for POS posers by any real vet. If I did what I said the my last post I would have to start each day whoopin’ my own ass!

David

This is really shitty. One of my peers that I commissioned with has almost the same name (one letter difference) as this tool.

Chelsea @ # 16,17; friend request sent.

A Proud Infidel & Patriot

You’re cool with me, Sparks, I know you were venting & spoofing! What I meant was that during the rest of the year, an individual Real Vet is allowed to beat up a maximum of 12 posers in a 24 hour period, sounds like a decent quota, and good PT as well!

Sparks

@16 and @17. Chelsea you are gracious. But please don’t ever feel the need to apologize for the likes of this guy. Everyone gets fooled from time to time (someone else said “all the people some of the time, some of the people all the time”). So don’t feel bad for having known someone who is doing what he is doing. You sound like a class act Chelsea. Have a good day and put this guy in your way back machine.

Sparks

@30 Does that mean we can’t ass whip the same guy twice? Even if he has it coming? Great quota, maybe the rule could be, wait 15 minutes before the second ass kicking.

Ex-PH2

That tongue!!!! That is so grosssSSSSSSS!!!!

Guys, don’t have your photo shot with your tongue sticking out unless it’s from a Sicilian curse that some waitress foisted on you.

Can I find someone closer to this marone to push his upper and lower jaws together real quick? That nasty bite he’d get would make him howl like a baby.

ChelseaTrosclair

He tells girls this at bars. Every time I see him out at one I go tell all the girls about his lies and front him out every time! He is a pos and that’s all he will ever be. He’s had his ass beat twice and continues to say it. He blocked me so I can’t post anything on his fb

MAJMike

Chelsea, you are my hero. Good on ‘ya, but be careful. Even a POS like Mikey might try to get violent.

ChelseaTrosclair

MAJmike. I have no worries lol. I’d love for him to come to my house or see me in public. He will be warmly welcomed by the 37 guns in my house or by the ruger .357 I keep in my car. Plus I’ve seen him fight….I’ve handled cattle bigger than him hahaha. Bring it!

@17.

You will find Ranger-qualified Naval personnel.

When I went through Ranger School years back, we had some Navy “Buds” guys that were running the pipeline.

To include 2 AF guys and a Marine or two.

Fairly rare, but inter-service slots are open, or at least they were.

Just a heads up.

ChelseaTrosclair

#38 Nah not bolivar lol I’m from Texas city. But I used to show cattle back in high school and I help my friends dad work cattle all the time haha. Brahma bulls and angus bulls are no laughing matter haha then sob’s are ruthless

Thanks for stopping by, Chelsea. I told you that we would enjoy your input, both here with this phony’s post, or on other posts.

ChelseaTrosclair

Well thank you for what you did sir! I greatly appreciate it an god bless

I know this guy personally. He used to tell me stories about how he was an Infantryman In the Army. I just kept on listening to his ridiculous stories. I bet he was surprised when he found out I was an REAL Infantryman. Now he is working at Olimpia grill as a HOSTESS!(no, really, as a hostess!)

Plus I told him I was going to have him arrested if he kept on lying. He deleted me off facebook and blocked me. What an IDiot. I was friends with one of his ex girlfriends and she was so convinced he was in the army.

@45-Do you by chance have a relative (Eddie) served in the Corps in ’71/’72?

Loser.

I know this kid. He’s been spewing this crap since the day I met him. My grandfather was a Seabee, and my uncle and brother were Navy as well. I COME from a Military background and I know how to spot a bullshitter when I see one. His day has come, all of us from Galveston/Crystal Beach(me) are all calling him out on this crap.He’s lucky I dont whoop his ass and make him cry like a wittle baby.

Green Thumb

@48.

Refer him to All Points Logistic’s management training program.

He appears to have what it takes.

This is!

Whoever made it look like mike claimed to be SF needs to do obviously do more framing work lol…not sticking up for anyone or taking sides but I know him personally. Not a bad guy At all actually but also not once did he ever claim special forces or anything heroic number one. Two, I have mike on Facebook and the triple canopy was just his headline pic. He supports SF I suppose. As far as a criminal record, he has none. Been arrested one time and the charge was later dropped. Look it up cause I know I did. Honestly, who hasn’t made mistakes in their lives? I know most people commenting on here have been arrested or made a mistake or two in their lifetime. These sorts of things greatly affect people like Mike and anyone else on these sites. He made mistakes and like I said not taking sides but haven’t we all? You don’t see anyone making sites about us do you? I mean how would you feel knowing that most stuff on this site is either bull, or stuff like the triple canopy (which you can google and see that mike isn’t wearing it that it’s just a background pic on his facebook) and the one time he was arrested and doesn’t have a record. Mike is a good man and has been there for me many times even when I call him in the middle of the night to pick me and friends up from places. If anything some of y’all should do more research cause this is making him out to be some big criminal with a record when in fact he isn’t, and not to mention like I said I know him

STFU cockpuppet.

ChipNASA

Let’s see if he know his government issued acronyms….

GFY, ESAD, FYYLB, EABOD, KMPWA.

nbcguy54

I suppose that “This is!” is short for “This is his Boyfriend”. Quit covering for this little airsoft wannabe. It ain’t worth it. So even if he isn’t actually sporting the triple canopy, in his “stud shot” he is wearing a Ranger tab, and I doubt if that’s from the Ranger Rick kiddy magazine. If you want to count someone who has to fake his way through life as your friend, I guess that’s your business. But when his crap spills over into the lives and careers of our honorable profession, then it becomes our business.

Instinct

I don’t remember anyone accusing him of being ‘some big criminal’, what he is accused of is wearing awards and finery that he did not earn and has no right to be wearing.

So he never said to you specifically “I was special forces”, whoop-de-fucking-do, he’s wearing the uniform and has the canopy giving the impression that they are his.

But thank you for hitting one of the common stolen valor talking points – wearing it to support/honor… blah, fucking blah.

cockpuppet indeed.

OAE CPO USN Ret

“This is!” not the place do be defending your boyfriend.

“This is!” where you develop some reading comprehension and realize that your boyfriend is posing in pictures wearing a uniform and other items he DID NOT earn.

“This is!” where I’ll summarize it for you. He was never in the Army, so he never earned the rank of E4, he never earned that CIB, he never earned that Basic Parachutist, and he never earned that Ranger tab. So he never did what it takes to earn that uniform he’s posing in with the E4 rank, CIB, Basic Parachutist, and Ranger tab.

“This is!” where we show you the door. Make sure it or my boot doesn’t hit you in the ass on the way out. Mmmmkay? Buhbye now.

Hey dude, whoever you are; do you know that by resurrecting this long-dead thread, all you are doing is drawing even more attention to sendeja’s phony fakery jackassery? By bringing this up, sendeja’s posering will be all the rage on the google-fu again. Best thing you could’ve done was to leave this thread alone, but you did otherwise, so now mikey’s phony poser antics are “famous” all over again…

Perhaps you should do a bit of research yourself into your friend. Look at Scotty’s page on your buddy. He was caught red handed. Before he shut down his Facebook page, screen shots were captured that showed him claiming SF, Ranger, Airborne. Sure, every one has made a mistake. But none of us are smarmy, smart ass punks parading around in uniforms and awards we didn’t earn for attention we don’t deserve. And why bring this up after all this time? Mikey pouting because he can’t safely wear his phony finery around town?

MGySgtRet

Mike, you are a douche rocket. You are wearing a uniform you do not rate with qualifications you did not earn. You are a valor thief. You are a criminal. You are a bag of shit. You are a fucking liar. You, bag of dicks, chow down.

Veritas Omnia Vincit

DO MORE RESEARCH?

Why? What do you suppose besides being a liar we will find? Will we discover all his charitable work with the lepers in India? Will we discover his philanthropic work to raise the standard of living for the working poor in Malaysia?

Or more likely will we discover more lies told to willing believers?

A mistake is forgetting to turn off the faucet when you leave the house, forgetting to tell the truth is never a mistake it is something done willfully on purpose to achieve a goal. That goal might be as simple as making someone believe their jeans don’t make their ass fat or as disgusting as lying about having earned something you didn’t like military awards, rank, and honor that others have actually earned legitimately.

Your friend is a liar and someone whose lies are a public example to his lack of character. I’ve known many veterans who make “mistakes” but men and women of honor own their mistakes and they stand up and acknowledge the error of their ways and then the move on not making the same errors over and over.

Perhaps your friend should remember his Goethe:

There is nothing in the world more shameful than establishing one’s self on lies and fables.

And if you are really a friend you should remember the words of Pietro Aretino and tell him this:

I love you, and because I love you, I would sooner have you hate me for telling you the truth than adore me for telling you lies.

NHSparky

I know most people commenting on here have been arrested or made a mistake or two in their lifetime.

Uh, nice try, but no. At least I’ve never been arrested. And “mistake”? WTF is that? Putting too much salt on your food is a “mistake”. Brandishing a weapon and disorderly conduct is a conscious decision to commit an illegal act.

Consider the difference, boyo.

Hondo

This is!: actually – yeah, yer “friend” here did claim both SF and Ranger. Wearing those tabs is a claim of having that qualification. Only those qualified wear those tabs.

As others have said above: I’d recommend you start doing your homework before opening your yap. Doing that rather dramatically reduces the chances you’ll look like an ignorant ass in public.

Ex-PH2©

“I know most people commenting here have been arrested” – WHAT?!?

I’ve never been arrested. I don’t even get parking tickets.

Where the hell do you get this shit, you pinhead? Just what is your basis for saying something like that?
