Arthur Rose; phony Vietnam SEAL

| December 24, 2016

Arthur Rose

The folks at Military Phonies send us their work on this fellow, Arthur Rose who claims to have been a member of SEAL Team 5 in Vietnam;

Well, the truth is that he was in the Navy 1965 – 1971 and in a ship that sailed off the coast of Vietnam, but he has no SEAL Training, no Silver Star, no Purple Hearts. SEAL Team 5 didn’t exist during his term of service.

He served his country when other men from his generation where running Canada or getting doctors to write deferments for bad feet. People would respect him for being a Vietnam vet without the Purple Heart, Silver Star, or SEAL nonsense. What a waste.

ThommyMac

Well said.

2banana

And remember

“Death before dishonor”

Like in his I love me shadow box.

So why is he still here?

Green Thumb

Those dudes that are sporting those “death before dishonor” shirts and such are the ones that are usually out the door at the first sign of trouble.

Deckie

I guess working on ship’s boilers in the tropics is the same as being a SEAL.

Squid

My goodness,yes. And we had to turned the engine room air conditioners up real high.

Deckie

Standing in front of the blowers with an open boilersuit… ahhhhhh so nice.

26Limabeans

The phony silver star is especially galling.
They don’t give those away for showing up.
Although I am sure it has happened.

Sponge

WHY do people do this? I see older folks wearing Veteran hats and military memorabilia and I thank them for their service. THIS makes me question whether they’re legit. Bastard…..

cobrakai99

Baaed on his shadow box it seems he doesn’t understand the difference between special operations and Special Forces.

2/17 Air Cav

“but he has no SEAL Training, no Silver Star, no Purple Hearts. SEAL Team 5 didn’t exist during his term of service.” Well, if you’re gonna be picky about it, I guess there’s no talking to you! Dint ya see his Honor Vest? Nothing says legit like an Honor Vest. And a goatee. And a beret.

sj

BUT, no dog and no Doo Rag. Fail.

Thomas Huxton

no tats?

Tony180a

Nothing screams legit NAVY Seal like a leather motorcycle vest with an Army Special Forces tab. At first glance this fucker reminded me of Angry Grandpa of youtube fame. Hint to posers Special Forces are US Army aka Green Berets.

HMCS(FMF) ret

His “tab” should read “SPECIAL FECES”

Grimmy

or Special Services aka weight room cleaner uper, piss test watcher, ball room manager or lawn maint specialist.

A Proud Infidel®™

Grimmy, you mentioned “piss test watcher” which is referred to these days as a “MEAT GAZER”. Good call, I’m sure he was always the first one to volunteer for that job!

Combat Historian

3000 seal phonies for every real SEAL…(sigh)…

Claw

Hey, Art, yes you of the Brown Rose.

Cheryl Brown called. She wants her husband’s SS/PH back so she can prove he was awarded them down at Fort Hood in 1973.

She says Brown Round Bobby is pretty pissed that you are stealing his valor.

And don’t be telling her that Bobby doesn’t have a leg to stand on, those are mine and I’m not giving them up.

What? Too soon on the one leg joke?

HMCS(FMF) ret

Another phony SEAL… couldn’t be happy with his service as a BT3… had to go BALLS DEEP with the SEAL story.

ARTHUR ROSE, the BALLS DEEP PHONY SEAL!

1610desig

Looks like the kind of leather boy who was going “balls deep” with a pipefitter in a fan room back during his time onboard…

Green Thumb

On a volunteer basis….

Ex-PH2

Y’know, if he’d just said ‘frogman’, it might have been more believable. But he forgets history and repeats what some other crapweasel said. What a marooon!!!

I see that he was at Bainbridge. I almost wonder if he’s one of the sailors I ran into on my company’s first liberty night.

Ex-PH2

Here’s a link to the history of USS Markab, a WWII destroyer tender decommissioned after the Korean War, and recommissioned in 1960, joining WestPac.

http://www.historycentral.com/navy/AK/markab.html

Oh, and while I’m at it, here’s the link to the USS Markab Association. Gee, I wonder if Mr. Twatwaffle’s old shipmates know he’s turfing himself out.

Eden

An ARMY beret (that looks like Chef Boyardee) with a NAVY Trident? REALLY?!?!?!

O-4E

The Navy brown water dudes wore black berets during Vietnam.

Watch Apocolypse Now

The Other Whitey

That was a documentary, right? Just like “Platoon” and “Casualties of War?”

Ex-PH2

They did, did they? Funny, when the Navy was ferrying soldiers into the Mekong Delta, the Army guys wore steel helmets and the sailors – well, half the time no shirts and no hats of any kind, except maybe – MAYBE – blue baseball caps.

Ex-PH2

To be clear on this, sailors either wore the dungaree working uniform (blue chambray shirt, dungaree pants, dixie cup) or they wore greens like the Army. It depended on where they were and what they were doing.

And this jackanapes never set foot on the soil of Vietnam. It’s more likely, he hit the liberty trail at Olongapo City or Subic Bay.

Zero Ponsdorf

Yeah Ex, dungarees were the uniform for us. We did wear a blue baseball cap underway rather than a dixie cup though.

Airdales had them purty colored t-shirts and scuttlebutt was that bubbleheads wore string bikinis?

Ex-Garbage Gun Shooter

Real bubbleheads don’t wear string anything under their poopy suits – they go commando.

Silentium Est Aureum

Thongs. We were cutting edge…or yes, commando worked too, especially in the Engine Room.

I can neither confirm or deny one guy stood his watch on Halfway Night wearing only shoes and a TLD tied to his crank.

HMCS(FMF) ret

Hey… you know, one of them thar seekrit skwirrl recruiters from the CIA may have shanghaied his ass to be a SQUEAL… he was the nekkid dude in the overcoat that went by the name of Seekrit Agent Orange….

A Proud Infidel®™

Yeah, BRILLIANT, ain’t it? Love the fake sniper’s gaze in the pic where he’s holding a handgun, too. He’s got a fake thousand yard stare that says “The lights are on but nobody’s home”.

Ex-PH2

I’ll bet that gun’s a fake, too.

A Proud Infidel®™

Even better yeat, see the t shirt he’s wearing? Check out “Happy Tree Friends” on YouTube (A “Care Bears on Friday the 13th” kind of theme), that’s one of the characters in it and yes, that could be five dollar Airsoft gun from a local flea market.

cobrakai99

Didn’t even see that till you pointed it out. Used to love getting a happy tree friends video during the intel brief before a sortie.

Ex-PH2

If that’s an Airsoft replica, isn’t it supposed to have the orange thingy on the tip? And wouldn’t removing that be an illegal act?

Hmmm…. inquiring minds want to know.

Club Manager

But he has the much sought after NDSM so cut him some slack.

LiRight

I’m not much with facebook, but am I correct that this mountain of steaming puke deleted all references to his heroics and awards “received” while floating in the waters off Viet Nam?

Hmmmm….”mountain of steaming puke” – I kind of like that apt description. 🙂

LiRight

Thanks DC, didn’t see those photos….I actually had to stop since it was making me sick to my stomach.

Mountain of steaming puke seems to be pretty accurate.

Green Thumb

The dude is wack.

And by looking at him I firmly think he believes it.

I am also going to posit that those “shell fragments” are some ghey-ass sex toys that he pulled out of his ass.

Loser.

1610desig

That and a gerbil…but it thankfully got away

Frankie Cee "In the Clear"

This is the second guy this week claiming Vietnam/SEAL Team 5. And they are from opposite sides of the country. They should get together and compare notes:

Is there an east coast / west coast difference in such posers?

lmn0351

Arthur Rose is nothing more than a worthless piece of seal shit

ex-OS2

Cocksucker.

A Proud Infidel®™

Just another DINGLEBERRY.

Sparks

Death Cards…really. Watch Apocalypse Now much? Nothing says ‘I was bag ass’ like Death Cards. He must be legit though and been ‘deep in the shit’, cause he had a picture of a P-38.

Shitbag!

Sparks

Meant ‘bad ass’ but upon reflection ‘bag ass’ works too.

Ex-PH2

I like ‘bag ass’, too. Works for me.

26Limabeans

“bag ass”
1. one who’s ass is in a bag.
such as being outed by TAH.
2. one who’s bag is in their ass.
such as being outed by TAH.

Bill M

“Bag ass” has a certain ring to it doesn’t it? May be the “words of the year” winner.

Claw

Sparks, just like Brown Nose Rose, that “P-38” he has a picture of is a fake/cheap knock-off. I’m looking at the real ones right now and:

If it was a real P-38 it would only have one ridge running its length.

That one has two (like the P-51) ridges, but they are on the wrong side. If that P-51 was the real deal, the side facing the cutting edge would have indented ridges, not raised ridges and the manufactures’ name (Shelby, Marrin, etc) would be between the ridges.

So, fakers gotta have fake shit to prove they’re the real deal. Even if it’s a lowly P-38/51. Betcha that fake P-51 was made in Sweaden.

Ex-PH2

Really, you do have to ask just how much fire he could possibly have taken when he was a Boiler Tech on a supply ship OFF the coast of Viet Nam. And those bullets he has? Look like ‘souvenirs’ he picked up at a target range.
There’s an ‘ick’ factor here.

A Proud Infidel®™

Your comment made me look twice at the pic Ex-PH2 and yes, I think you’re right. Hell, two of those slugs look like .22 LR and .22 Magnum, neither of which saw use in combat in Vietnam.

Ex-PH2

Exactly, API. The ‘smashed’ slug was the tip-off. It impacted hard on something, which flattened the nose, and none of them look the right size for anything like what was used over there, including handguns.

This guy is really bothersome, and I don’t know why.

26Limabeans

Those “fragments” would be a lot more believable if they included a six inch piece of twisted and burned steel with a rusty patina.

A Proud Infidel®™

NOWYADUNNIT, next we’ll be seeing turdpails like Arthur Rose the phony SEAL grubbing around junk and scrap yards looking for rusty metal shards!

Ex-PH2

They have to have dried blood on them, those fragments. And it can’t be just ANY blood. It has to be certified human blood.

Just out of curiosity, has there ever been anyone who had a shrapnel fragment lodged some place that was mostly harmless, and wanted to keep it?

T1B

Ex,

I have four pieces in my right shoulder-about BB sized. They are completely benign. Odd thing is, I didn’t elect to leave them in. The docs said it would do more damage to cut them out than to leave them put, so there they sit.

Ex-PH2

Thank you, T1B. That’s what I wanted to know.

lily

Another thing I notice about these phonies is if you look up the reason they joined the Navy it’s because they didn’t want to be drafted into the Army. Now they want the credit that goes to those who were being shot at.

2/17 Air Cav

In this knucklehead’s case, lily, there was no draft when he enlisted.

Hondo

Actually, there was – we had a peacetime draft every year from 1940 through 1973.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conscription_in_the_United_States#Vietnam_War

However, the peacetime draft did “ramp up” substantially for Vietnam about or shortly after the time this guy enlisted. Maybe this guy saw the proverbial “handwriting on the wall” and decided to join the Navy to avoid the possibility of being drafted and sent to Vietnam.

26Limabeans

I joined the Army so I could choose a MOS that would keep me out of Viet of the Nam.
Yeah, I was lied to.

Ex-PH2

You are not alone, 26limabeans. My recruiter lied to me, too – twice.

lily

I read on more than one book a Navy vet said they joined because they didn’t want to “trudge in the mud” with the enemy.

26Limabeans

I guess it was a case of “choose your poison”. Personally, I am scared witless at the thought of being on the ocean with no land in sight. I have a lot of respect for those that can handle it but seafaring is not for me.

lily

The Army had to sail to it’s combat zone until around 1980s.

Chip

That is a cool beret.

rgr769

You forgot your sarc tag, I hope.

Chip

What’s wrong with it? 😉

rgr769

It is a size or two too big for his fat heat. It has not been shaped, obviously never worn in the rain. The trident appears to be plastic and about twice normal size. Also, regulations don’t call for it to be pulled down to the left eyebrow and over the right eyebrow. But hey SEALs don’t wear berets anyway, so I guess, “at this point, what difference does it make.”

Chip

LOL! I was just screwing with you. I thought they had berets during that era? They are wearing them in the book I have called SEALs in Vietnam.

rgr769

Yes. I see the pics of the guy wearing a camo beret. They were made locally by the Vienamese, like the tiger stripe camo fatigues, and various booney hats we wore in the field. So what? Many spec ops units wore all kinds of non-issue uniforms and used non-issue gear. About a third of the men in my Ranger company carried AK’s. One guy carried a Thompson sub-machine gun. None of this stuff was issued. The bottom line is that this bag of ass (or ass bag) never wore a beret or anything else in ol’ RVN, because he never set foot there in this reality.

Chip
Ex-PH2

I have to tell you this, Chipster: the guy with the beret in one photo is MACV SOG, not a SEAL. SEALS did not and still do not wear berets. The brown water river rats wore greens in Vietnam, and that meant boonie hats or the caps like those the Marines wore.

Chip

Someone should have told Marcinko.

https://www.pinterest.com/pin/416864509228669347/

26Limabeans

Man that photo of Charlie Beckwith with three arms is creepy.

Chip

Marcinko is wearing a boonie hat I think.

Ex-PH2

Yeah, well, einstein, I don’t have a pinterest account and I’m not going to get one. And if you had eyesight any better than a gnat’s you’d realize that the guy on the right is wearing a headbad, not a hat, just like the blondish guy on the left. That was pretty common back then. Mkay, sport? And your fanboy pic of ‘Carlos Hathcock’? That no more looks like him than my cat does. I know what he looked like. You don’t.
And finally, if rgr69 already TOLD YOU that Navy people in Vietnam DID NOT WEAR BERETS, why do you keep arguing about something like that, when you weren’t even a dull twinkle in your daddy’s blind left eye.

Chip

LOL!!!! Merry Christmas old dog. I’ve got to go to work today and keep people safe.

A Proud Infidel®™

Anybody who wants to view REAL pictures of SEALs in Vietnam can get a copy of “Rogue Warrior” by Richard Marcinko (CAPT, USN, Ret), founder of USN SEAL Team Six or “Point Man” by James Watson, both of whom were real life SEAL badasses that served over there.

Chip

Those same guys are pictured in Seals in Vietnam.

Hack Stone

Is there any video of him spinning around and tossing it in the air? He might just make it after all.

26Limabeans

Didn’t she have one of those noodle strings on the top? Or am I thinking of Claudine Longet in the Combat series?
She was the French resistance girl.
There was another series similar to Combat but the name excapes me.

Ex-PH2

Tour of Duty, perhaps?

I remember ‘Combat’ on evening TV. Vic Morrow was good in that one.

26Limabeans

Nah, tod was nam based. I’m thinking of a series that competed with Combat after they saw Vic Morrow was a hit. Loved the show. Too bad about Vic getting decapped by a UH-1.

Claw

The Rat Patrol maybe?

Good one. Lots of hopped up Jeeps and Machine Guns.

26Limabeans

Yeah, that was a cool show.
North African campaign I think.

26Limabeans

Found it. “The Gallant Men”.
It played opposite “Combat”.
Claudine played the role of Babette in “Combat”, apparently in only one episode. I thought she was a regular but now realize it was only in my raging teenage hormone dreams. I lost my lust for her when she shot her boyfriend.

Daisy Cutter

With each glance and every little movement you show it.

Hack Stone

And he can turn the world on with a smile.

Skyjumper

What the hell kind of tee is he wearing while he’s brandishing his piece? Old Lying Fart Ninga, Special Feces, Navel Ceal Team 5 t-shirt?

Most likely he probably pulled the bullets from a firing range target area. I would like see them be reused & inserted up his ass or in to his cranial dome.

Yeah, you’re a real warrior, Arthur Rose. I can tell by the Black Army beret sporting the Trident; the handful of bullet frags; the motorcycle; the biker vest with the Special Forces tab, Purple Heart & Silver Star; “Love me box” with “death before dishonor” bullshit, and all of you bullshit “heroic” postings on Facebook.

You making me fucking sick, loser!

Ex-PH2

The worst part is that there are people on the crew list who were on the Markab at the same time he was who can verify what he did while he was there.

This is ridiculous. Does he actually think that there is no one left alive who was there at the same time he was?

Skyjumper

rgr769

I love how these poser’s wear their berets. The way this asshat is wearing his, it looks like he just slipped it out of the plastic bag after he pulled it out of the Amazon box dumped on his porch. Anyone who has worn a military beret for months and years on an almost daily basis doesn’t have a beret that looks or is worn like that. When I was active duty in SF, you could always tell the newbies in the Group that had never regularly worn a beret before, especially the field grade officers. Too bad he couldn’t find a larger plastic trident for his clown hat.

just some feller

They wear them differently nowadays than back in the 1960s. Back then it was shrunk over a fire extinguisher and shaped so that there was just a small “pull” over the right ear. Oh, and the berets were made in Canada.

Nowadays it looks like they wear the beret in the shower and stretch it down to their chin. [Okay…. slight exageration … only down to the cheekbone.]

JSF

rgr769

Yes, I have noticed that. Mine were made by Fleur de ‘Lis, Ltd. in Toronto. I suspect the current issue ones are made in China, as I recall Shinsheki took some heat for contracting the hundreds of thousands of dark blue ones that are issued and not earned, from China. Wearing the “pull” stuck out parallel to the ground is a give away of being a poser/loser. It is almost as bad as what I call Jesse MacBeth style, as worn by our recent not-a-Ranger poser from Columbus,GA.

A Proud Infidel®™

Jesse MacBeth, the dropout loser wuss that claimed “Breakfast manager at Wendy’s” as his civilian job. Wendy’s doesn’t serve Breakfast, he couldn’t even get that lie believable!

ex-OS2

Not defending that cocksucker, but both Wendy’s in my area serve breakfast….

rgr769

I think at the time Jesse made the claim, Wendy’s did not serve breakfast meals. Moreover, I question whether any of these fast food joints have someone called “Breakfast Manager” as a job title. Obviously, Macbeth wasn’t even capable of managing his own worthless ass.

A Proud Infidel®™

IMHO Jesse MacBeth can’t even pick his own nose without setting off a fire alarm.

Green Thumb

I can only imagine that MacBeth does serve breakfast.

This is how the big boys wear their beret. And this guy has worn one long enough to know how it is done, 24 years in service at this picture, 22 years of that in Ranger or Delta units:

And this is how the “big boys” wore the beret in the 60-70s:

I was not SF …. but my father began his period with the 77th in 1954 (or so) before the beret was authorized … then 1st (without, then with, Kennedy mourning border), 6th, 5th, and Training Group.

JSF

rgr769

Your pics are how I wore mine 1971-1976. 75th Ranger Regt. troopers have a propensity to crush the top of the beret down behind the internal support card inside the front where the flash and DUI are attached. Also, many of the non-issue “sand” colored berets don’t have the internal cotton lining of the SF berets and the Brit and German military berets, as those I have in my collection.

I’d like to see the “scars” he got from those teensy-weensy ‘bullets’ he’s holding. Especially, most of all, in fact, I would love to see the “SCAR” from the bullet with the smashed nose. That would be awesome.

Blaster

Cool thousand yard stare!

It would even better if had something in his history to relate it to.

TankBoy

That thousand yard stare is rom getting raped in a Korean prison after getting picked up drunk and disorderly by ROK MP’s.

Hey Art Rose you need to get with a puke I worked with he had an air born tat claimed to be an airborne Ranger yet was afraid to put on his work boots because it had heel and he was to high off the ground. And the piece of shit hid in the national gourd in Oklahoma during the war maybe he even faked that.

Tony180a

He has a pic on his Facebook page of a Navy White uniform with a Trident and a pair of gold wings. I shit you not he wrote “The Budweiser after completing airborne training 1966 Georgia”. Perhaps he drank a few Buds in Georgia back in 1966.

Blaster

I could be wrong but if you zoom in on his fancy shadow box, the name tag at the bottom center says something about in honor of all US Marines. I guess since the USMC is a part of the Department of he Navy he figures it’s ok, you know, close enough.

26Limabeans

So it’s an “honor box”.

CAPT S.F. McCartney USN (ret)

Anyone notice how he holds the pistol ? Quite unsafe and suggests he doesn’t know shit about weapon safety and handling. Sad phony..his real service should have been enough to feel proud of.

CAPT Bones

HMC Ret

I THINK it says: “In Honor And Memory of All United States Marines Who Served  195? Vietnam 1975”.  Also, a properly assembled shadow box would have the medals displayed in order of significance.  Mine does, as do all I have seen.   His seems to be more of an “I Love Me”  trophy/honor box done by the individual who had little understanding of its significance. 
I’ve never seen a Trident like that. Almost appears to be plastic.
This guy is pretty much a soup sandwich.

TankBoy

Aaaaaand, there’s that leather vest! I’m betting there’s a Harley Davidson too!!! And a veterans bike club! If not, there’s one full of “Seals” like him down in Florida.

I love the Black Beret, which was only worn by Army Tankers back then and the musket ball in his hand.

Totally legit

HT3 '83-'87

Off the coast of the Viet of the Nam on a repair ship working in boiler room is just like being a SEAL. (eye roll)

Dude, I was on an AOR, and I know that any ship that starts with an A- is in the rear with the beer.

They’ll tell you at the UDT/SEAL Museum in Ft. Pierce, FL: only something 400 SEAL’s served in SE Asia despite the claims of 15,000 shitbirds.

Civilwarrior

Hey, a Boiler Tech 3rd is TOTALLY like a SEAL. Don’t be a hater.

TankBoy

True enough, They’ve both seen the shit…

Blaster

Isn’t it odd how so many of these guys like to wear all the “been there,done that” garb and bait folks into asking them if,when,where, etc. they served – where you in SF , RNGR BATT, SEALs, ninja, CIA, etc. AND then they like to say “I don’t want or like to talk about it” then proceed to talk about it.

You know what I don’t like to talk about and have a small touch of PTSD about? Watching haji’s leave the kitchen at the chow hall, walk the ports-John with a bottle of water under their arm and we all know what they’re doing before going back to handle our chow.

Merry Christmas everyone .

I wonder if he spent any time in Ho Li Phuq village… did recon missions in Pun Tang Provence… had a houseboy by the name of Lon Duc Dong… ever had a bowl of Cream of Sum Yun Guy?

I’m sure it was and still is his favorite dish. I heard he ate it in the village of Al Phuk Tup.

Fake Navy Seal Arthur Rose deserves more Google fame. I had an interesting back and forth with this dirtbag. He went into sock puppet mode. I have the screen grabs any suggestions on how to post here?

MCPO NYC USN Ret.

This shitz was a fireman striker who was thrown in to B Division no doubt because he was a rock. He did not even go to A school.

As a Real Genuine FR, BTFA, BTFN, BT3, BT2, BT1, BTC and BTCS I can say with 100 % certainty this mug is most LEGiT.

Many striker fireman with no A schools and skills went on to serve in SEAL Teams that were not yet commissioned while routinely wearing breast badges on non-issued berets.

Google it!

If Master Chief says it, so it is! When I was an instructor at the tank School, whenever we had a washout, we launched him to the cook school. But hey, Master Chief says, so Seals away!

Laughing my ass off!

Looks like Brown Rose Art has sent in his sister to sockpuppet in the Facebook comments.

She’s pretty serious about it too. She knows her brother was the real deal, cause not only does he have the PH’s to go along with being wounded twice, he also has other *accommodations* as a UDT Frog.

So way to up the ante, Art. We like nothing better that those LSOS’s who hide behind family member’s skirts.

Silentium Est Aureum

Six year BT’s (no offense, MCPO) aren’t smart enough to know where they fucked up their cover, and when caught, aren’t smart enough to fess up.

It’s always fun when the sock puppets come out to play!

Silentium Est Aureum

Okay, Facebook commenters, I’ll bite.

First, your boy never went to BUD/S. Ever. No record of it. Even if, as you now claim, he was in UDT 5 (again, not possible, buy more on that later) versus SEAL Team 5, your boy overlooked one tiny, yet very important detail. I’ll let you figure out what that is rather than tell you so you (and he) can change your story.

As far as UDT-5? Yeah, no. Yes, there was in fact a UDT-5; problem was, it was during WWII, and was decommissioned in October 1945:

http://www.viewoftherockies.com/UDT5.html

While UDT-5 was recommissioned for Korea, it was redesignated UDT-13 in 1954, and there hasn’t been a UDT-5 since:

Seems they are sticking with the same story.

He sure looks like a bad ass with that super scary shirt, airsoft gun and the “vest”.

Arthur Rose, cocksucker in 2016 and cocksucker in 2017.

Way to go asshole.

Had some spare time, so went back and did a little FB review on old Brown Rose Art.

Came across a picture posted by Art on June 9, 2016 of the Medal of Honor.

Art captioned it with *Almost*.

Since it seems that Art is now monitoring TAH, got a question for him. Just what are you trying to imply about the MOH, Art? That the Silver Star you supposedly received was a downgrade from a MOH recommendation? Or are you trying to build a case to have your Silver Star upgraded to a Navy Cross?

Inquiring minds want to know. Objective AF mode is now in full effect.

I think he’s deserving of a Right Cross, but what do I know…

And one more tidbit, Rosie:

BT was never a SEAL source rating.

I think Rosie may be as real as the door on a mailbox. I just rebutted her argument over on Scott’s stolen valor page. LOL.

Art! In the Corps we called people like you oxygen thieving pieces of shyte!

TankBoy

Art! Just looked at your Facebook page! Like mine, no indication you were a Seal! Good for you realizing you were caught rocking the lie and deleting all of that crap. I did a screen save of your friend’s page. i’ll be happy to do the leg work and post a message to everyone on that list with a copy of your REAL DD 214 if I see anything resembling SEAL in the future.

Sad.

TankBoy

Oh, by the way, Art. I have a Bronze Star w/ V ( Desert Storm), and I have a couple of friends with Silver Stars (One stood up to and took out a couple of tanks with a DRAGON anti-tank missile and took them out, the other was a Marine Infantry company commander in Sangin, Afghanistan at it’s worst. Both are still active duty Marines. I’m retired. I take valor thieves seriously. Because I know guys that have stood up and done shit. Not made shit up on the computer after they went shopping online for trinkets to adorn their walls and their lies.

Hey 1stSgt, kind of a random question….
Did you ever serve with a Captain Franz? He was on of the Staff Platoon Commanders for my TBS Company (Blue Collar Bravo in 96)?
I know the Tanker community is quite small, and he is the only Tank officer I ran into during TBS, so I figured I would ask.
He was a good leader and very entertaining.
