Phillip Koval; another phony Marine
Yeah, I’m sure you Marines are proud to have this fine specimen, Phillip Koval, in your ranks. Well, relax, his FOIA says that he’s never served, if you can’t tell from the sad shape of his uniform;
Need a closer look at his impressive rack?
Yeah, his highest awards are a Meritorious Service Medal and and 2 Air Medals. He’s buddies with Doug Collett, who claimed that he had seen Koval’s DD214. How do these phonies find each other? Are they organized or something?
There’s more of his glorious visage at Scotty’s

Just LOVE that regulation mustache. Yep! He’s totally legit!
Damn. He ALMOST got the medals reasonably correct.
Except last time I checked, it’s kinda hard to qualify for the KLM(KU) without also qualifying for the SWASM (the qualification criteria seem to be virtually identical). So he’s missing something.
Like brains. And integrity. (smile)
Birds of a feather flock together…Facebook seems to have an added feature for Posers, kind of a Bug Light to attract all the other cretins.
Another proud specimen that looks like he never met a jelly doughnut he didn’t like, and could suck the cream filling out of a Twinkie from 600 meters away! He looks like a shopping mall rent-a-fuzz wannabe as well, maybe Blake’s brother/cousin?
Perhaps the most grating thing about this cretin isn’t the raft of uniform gaffes but the grim “I’m making it day-to-day” face designed to make the casual observer admire his noble struggle. Hopefully someone can change that into the “hey, I’ve just been punched in the face” face.
@2, Hondo, the KLM (Saudi) version has a more stringent criteria.You have to have been in direct support of operations to liberate Kuwait from 17 Jan-28 Feb 1991. Basically the shootin’ part. The KLM (Kuwait) requires that you were in support of or involved in operations any time between 2 August 90 to 30 August 91.
I qualify for the Kuwait one, but it was never entered in my records.
As for the shit sandwich I hope he is out camping and gets attacked by a hobo with a hatchet.
“How do these phonies find each other? Are they organized or something?”
Yah They have their own VFW/ Legion post somewhere
Look, kids! It’s Staff Sergeant Droopy!
“Hello, folks…”
Over 12 and no Good Conduct?
Bad Boy!
Hahahahahahahahahah!
I was totally fooled. No HALO Recon Death Sniper Badge or Silver Star. Must be legit
@Hondo: I know you didn’t just mention integrity with this poser except in reference to his Under Roos holding a water tight seal.
I like the shot in front of the camper, wearing the uniform with the leg braces and carpal tunnel supports clearly visible….I’m sure to elicit sympathy from the public along with some free beer and food….
No offense to anyone, but once I took the uniform off I’ve never worn it again…after my divorce I do not believe I even possess a dress uniform…I might still have a pair of infantry boots circa 1983 in the back of my closet along with my blue infantry cord and a couple of photos….what’s with all these dickheads playing dress up all the time?
I almost drop-kicked my monitor when I saw this. Dunno why, he’s no more of a low-life scum-sucking wannabee loser than the other wannabees we’ve been seeing lately. Maybe it’s that look on his face that says “I’m stoooonnnnnnnnneedd, maaaaaaannnnn!”
Almost – ALMOST – makes me want to set up a Facebook account just so I can lob some verbal mortar rounds at him. Does this turd have an email address?
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Check out the pornstache!
@6, maybe he could be the unlucky one that pisses Giduck off when there’s a shovel handy? Then *WHAP!*, he gets hit with a shovelful of his BS!
A slouchy, fat, fake. Disgusting. A degradation of a dress uniform like I have never seen. Fucker.
Dude looks like he hangs around playgrounds.
Probably a ticklemonster or such.
Keep your britches up, folks.
Also, probably a known associate of Robert Hay aka. Bob “The Maggot”.
Just An Old Dog: understood. I was speaking solely of the KLM(KU) which has pretty much the same eligibility criteria as the SWASM except for an earlier cutoff date (1993).
Oh, can I play, too!?!?
Okay, either he’s pregnant with a baby elephant, and it’s due any day now, or that gut he’s sporting is the result of far too much beer and pizza and not enough time on the rack.
And by rack, I mean the medieval one. Anyone have time for a Spanish Inquisition?
ugh.
Oh, I figure it out: that gut isn’t really a gut.
It’s a boob job gone bad, that slid all the way down to his lower abdomen, and he’s asking for donations to fix it.
@13–speaking of goofy looks, how about that douchetool who was supposedly an Iraq vet being the first in line to buy the hippie lettuce in Colorado the other day?
I’d be REAL interested to hear what an FOIA and his buddies would have to say about him. I’m going to go out on a limb and say that you’d hear the phrases, “shitbag” or “ten percenter” quite a bit.
YMMV.
Whelp, apparently “The Wrench” is no more:
http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/fitchburg/obituary.aspx?n=phillip-w-koval-the-wrench&pid=168647022&fhid=4689
And I wonder how the MA state authorities would feel knowing he had a scary black rifle, but the BPD can’t? Doubly so when you consider he’s so frigging stupid he can’t get his booger hooks off the bang switch!
I still believe the Marines have a sharp looking dress uniform, despite this pear shaped fellow. I do like his Facebook attempt at his best “thousand yard stare”. Hope he meets some real Marines out at his campsite and lays his shit on them.
Good grief, who made that jacket? Omar the tent maker?
Totally Legit:
Outward sloping posture and ultra-squared away belt!
@25 Morning Master Chief! You said it best, he is one squared away jarhead.
Now, how do they say it in the Navy, “All hands on deck, give ‘er a good sweep down fore and aft”? I am not up on my Navy jargon but always thought it was cool to hear. I am sure I got that order wrong Master Chief, my apologies. Have a great day sir.
I just put in a call to a bunch of Marines over at Facebook to come take a look around. I also suggested they leave their comments on the turd.
Why can’t he be here in Michigan so I could visit him?
@ #22: Well, it certainly looks like the same guy. Guess whatever neurological problem he had took care of his future posing.
Two Air Medals and no Air Crew Wings? Wearing utes with a shooting medal? This is too easy. Total fail at all points. Joe
@26, Sparks, that would be “Sweepers, sweepers, man your brooms, hold a clean sweepdown fore and aft.” With the bosun’s whistle just before it. Coolest thing they do in the Navy.
DOB on the obit matches the DOB on the trace…He is DECEASED !
Didn’t that mustache belong to one of the Village People?
What a fucking tater tot,I like how he calls himself a Master Sgt.So is he dead I saw Scott post a obit on him,and no mention of his Marine Corps past hahahha.I watched Lone Survivor 2 days ago,get ready for a whole wave of SEALS posers.
At least there is no mention of military service in the obit. Apparently the family was aware that any claims were false. Given the request for memorials to the local Neurology Department, there may have been some serious physiological issues?
I remember when I got my first star on my Army Commendation Medal, as awarded by the Marine Corps…
@30 OldCorpsTanker72 thanks for that. Way cool. I love Navy jargon. It almost makes me wish I had went Navy instead of Army. But as I determined in the Post Office going from one recruiter to another, “I can dig a foxhole quicker than I can shit an island”. But I still love all things Navy….wait that sounded kinda’ gay. I RESPECT all things Navy…there, that’s better.
Best thing about it is he is in a permanent foxhole with plenty of cover!
I just looked at this tool’s Facebook page. I noticed his cover is about two sizes too big. Surplus store must have been out of the pin-head sizes that day.
Well, he’s dead. Dead and gone. End of story.
Jonn, my highest award is an MSM. What are you saying there?
I hope William Hawkins and Manila John Basilone run into this phony in the Hereafter and kick his poser ass…
Jabatam: Jonn can confirm later, but I think he was pointing out that the guy wasn’t claiming any combat decorations for valor. Most LSoS posers claim at least a PH and/or some kind of decoration for valor in combat.
Any chance Joe Shit the Ragman took that advice about sucking a 12ga? Especially liked the Sharpshooter badge on the utility blouse. Army Navy store must have been out of Expert badges.
@34 OWB……
Well kind of
“loved to play Call of Duty.”….
/figures.
I saw the obit. You’d think that his service in the Marines would be mentioned there, but apparently either someone warned the funeral home, or he was one of those “secret squirrel ninja” types.
Regardless, I don’t know if any of the rest of you noticed this, but the first thing that jumped out at me was in that pic of him sitting outside the RV, he’s got his frikkin’ cane upside down.
I mean, who does that? I’ve got the exact same type of cane and I’d never think of putting the rubber grip on the ground, getting crap on it, etc.
Ah well, he’s no longer with us, but it must be some miscomfort to his old lady to know what sort of lies he was tossing about.
Fortunately he didn’t breed. As far as Navy jargon the one I got the biggest kick out of was:
“Taps Taps ….Lights out… All hands turn to YOUR OWN bunks and maintain silence throughout the decks,,,, now taps.”
The guy on the 1-MC actually did emphasize “YOUR OWN”,,,, and this was before they had women on Amphibs.
Every time I see one of these turds that y’all display here, from any and all mil branches, the memories of the plethora of SNCOs that made it their life’s mission to jump up and down about standards and such seems a lot less ridiculous.
Scotty you must have been holding on to this one. Doug Collette been in hiding for awhile now and probably in Jail. Dude took all of this to his grave and brought his wife in on it too.
