Thomas Coaks; phony SEAL admiral of rears
Reader C.L. wants you to meet Rear Admiral Thomas Coaks. Don Shipley actually took the time to look him up in the database and, surprise!, he’s not a SEAL. I’m going out on a limb here, but I’m pretty sure he’s not a Rear Admiral either. He doesn’t show up in the flag officers’ registry. He may be an admiral of someone’s rear, but that doesn’t get him the rank or the pay.

Sent him a nice little message with the link.
When this was showing up in Stolen Valor, I called BS.
Glad Don Nailed it.
I asked then to call in a Hair Strike.
Okay, so when’s he coming over here to either 1–threaten to sue Jonn/TSO, 2–claim he was just “honoring” someone, 3–he never REALLY claimed he was a SEAL, 4–adds his name to the list of the Lucky Smegma (Drinkers) Club?
Oh, and how long until he figures out impersonating a commissioned officer is a federal crime that’ll get him sent to PMITA prison?
Finally, what else is this shitstain guilty of doing, cause you know there’s more to this clown than just playing dress-up.
WTF! I mean claiming stolen valor is one thing. Claiming to be a SEAL is a whole other level of stupid. But ALSO claiming to be a Rear Admiral, that is weapons grade dumb ass there. Because no one would ever check that. I looked at his circle of friends on Facebook. They are about as dumb looking as he is so I understand their pats on the back for him. What a retarded ass hole to believe he could pull this off.
The ANA called, they want their uniform back…. there’s enough material there to clothe a platoon of them.
WTF… As NH says, it is a federal crime to impersonate a comissioned officer. Hope the “rear admiral” is sentanced to somewhere he has his rear admiralty put to use.
Check out some of his “friends”…Short Stack and Janet Brown has an interesting business.
Bet he doesn’t realize there are fewer than a dozen SEAL-qual flag officers, of any level. IF that many.
Stolen valor folks are all over this and are posting other photos and items they have screencapped as well that I don’t see on the Facebook

He’s the new CINCANALDEVGRU…
See he has removed that photograph from his facebook. The Internet is forever Thomas Coaks…
Stolen Valor quickly pulled photos that other folks were posting of him so maybe the links may not work above.
A LOT of folks were aware of him and had more incriminating evidence.
Damn, just before I hit “share” on his jacked up O7 photo on Facebook, it goes away. That’s alright, I’ll just share the TAH link instead. Coaks, you might want to fix up some of the other stuff on your Facebook page, asshat.
Anyone in the Chicago area want to drop by the Hines VAMC to see if the Thomas Coaks who is a VA cop is this guy?
I messaged him on Facebook and a few of his friends, with a link to here. Looking at his friends, the sheer size and weight of most of those gals makes me wonder why Chicago is not sinking into Lake Michigan.
@12 Bobo…He’s sanitizing….
Not to worry, a LOT of folks had even better screencaps of him and they’ll get out.
Also there was an entire page someone posted of his supposed military SEAL experience and that he allegedly carry’s a firearm around the Chicago area and the VA. ALLEGEDLY.
Yea Coaks, just like I said in my message, you can close your account or you can pull those photos down but they are HERE and we like the internet…are forever.
Loser.

I just saw that, according to his Facebook, that he really probably was a ABE3 in the Navy. That explains a lot. ABE’s aren’t typically known for their high ASVAB scores.
A VA cop pretending to be an O7 SEAL? That should work out well for him career wise.
It wouldn’t surprise me one bit if this guy works at the VA. What are the odds of his supervisors slamming his nuts in the door over this ass-hattery? Slim to none I bet. I hope they don’t have this piece of shit doing anything more complex then cleaning the shitters or emptying trash cans. Lord help us if that slimeball is working on pension claims, or even worse anything that has him handling funds. I wouldnt be surprised if he’s robbing the place blind.
Can I help?

There, I feel like I have contributed- won’t liars ever stop? I mean, shit, watch somebody get busted and learn something!
Dumbass…
Together we served lists him as:
OF, Coaks, Thomas (Punisher), RADM

So much internets to sanitize…so little time.
Thomas Coaks….MISSED THIS ONE BITCH

I imgured it in case he remembers to sanitize that too.
ChipNASA: he seems to have wiped the “We Served” page, amigo. Did you by any chance print it to PDF?
I’m not sure that he’s anything more than a large pile of wishful thinking butg if you want Hines’ Security Office number to discuss it, here it is:
Now be nice and polite. And no cuss words.

It’s a 140-mile roundtrip from my house down there and back. Not worth to go scold and blowhard.
Another extra-large dingleberry!
I would, Jonn, but I go out of my way to not set foot in the Peoples Republic of Chicago.
No I didn’t. I was able to pull this one where he lists himself as Captain and Google Cache still has that….add “Punisher”
I did get this to uimgur. I did save the webpage before it disappeared but it’s in html format and I don’t know how to post that

ChipNASA: print to PDF (if you have that capability; many places do, and you can download a utility to do so for any Windows system) works just as well. You can also set your browser to print headers/footers that show site, date, and time on the output when you do that.
It also archives the whole page at once, not just the part that’s on the screen at the time.
I find that printing to PDF is a wonderful way to document stuff I think might later disappear – and to time/date stamp the item while capturing the URL, too. (smile)

Spitting coffee. That’s classic right there

@31…got it and I have a new together we served file with that as a firefox addon.
If you still google thomas coaks navy the CAPT claim is still showing up on google cache on other guys pages with together we served.
Captain, Admiral, still ends up in PMITA prison.
Sucks for him.
E-mail sent to LCDR Eric Stroud, president, Aviation Boatswain’s Mates Association. Hopefully, if assweasle is a member based on his (former) posting on Together We Served and his previous service as an ABE3, they can do something to get him bounced. Possibly a small victory, but a victory none the less.
Where do you guys want the screen caps? Been there for the whole thing and this guy is a piece of work. BTW he works at the Hines Jr VA Hospital as a gun carrying guard.
This clown is good!! He was a SGT in the Army at the same time he was Admiral of Rears in the Navy.

@37 CBF,
I usually try to put them in imgur.com and then post links here. They won’t go away and Jonn can actually activate the html and have them appear in the thread if he chooses.
/my 2 cents.
@39Cold Blue Fire…..THAT is a THING of BEAUTY!!!
You are all fouls.
This guy is the REAL DEAL!
He took the photos down from the interweb because they are obviously classified!
This dumbass’s level of shitbaggery is truly unparalleled. Not only does he claim to a SEAL RADM, but last night he made a request to be added to our “You Know You’re From VP Navy” page on FB. It took all of about 30 seconds for us to call BS. Apparently, he is a cop with VBA.
@43 EG he is a cop with VBA.
and
37 CBF he works at the Hines Jr VA Hospital as a gun carrying guard.
Probably for not too much longer.
/sucks to be him.
This is his boss. Police Chief, feel free to give him a call., Edward Hines, Jr.
VA Hospital
5000 South 5th Avenue
Hines, IL 60141
708-202-8387
Police Chief
Thats just what the VA needs is this mentally unstable shitbag running around with a loaded weapon. I would not want to be that Police Chief !!!
BTW most of the contracted security at the federal buildings are armed because they get a bonus – it’s a union thing…
I think I saw this guy serving in the movie Battleship.
He has been placed on Administrative Leave pending investigation.
@49 NavyE9r, way to go. Glad to hear that!
