Robert Hayes – Phony Vietnam Vet, Fake Purple Heart

| June 17, 2019

The folks at Military Phony send us their work on Robert Gene Hayes, who claims to have served in Vietnam, was in both the US Marine Corps and US Army Special Forces, worked in a “Black Ops” unit and was wounded in combat.

Bob posts a lot of Vietnam-themed photos to his page but doesn’t label them – for instance – as him or his unit.

Bob also wears a lot of Marine Corps bling…

He also mixes and matches Marine Corps and US Army Special Forces bling…

Although this is some historical recreation, he still mixes and matches Marine Corps and Army Special Forces…

In this photo, he wears a “CENTRAL COAST VIETNAM VETERAN” ball cap…

Here he wears a “1st MARINE VIETNAM VETERAN” ball cap…

And here another “VIETNAM VETERAN” ball cap…

Then, of course, the “PURPLE HEART VIETNAM VETERAN” ball cap…

His wife is proud of Bob’s military accomplishments and posted about them…

Then there is the “Black Ops” stuff normally one can’t talk about…

Had that Huey not been parked out back, she may be telling a different story.  How lucky can one be?

Someone asked Bob about the Marine Corps claim…

One huge discrepancy is that all of Robert’s time since he graduated from High School in 1973 is accounted for.

SOURCE: 1973 East Bakersfield High School Yearbook, Varsity Football, pg 50

Hayes got a football scholarship to Nebraska.  His name showed up in the Nebraska newspapers and team rosters from 1973 to 1977.

In fact, when he played in the inter-scrimmage RED-WHITE GAME, it was a mere couple of weeks before they evacuated the embassy in Saigon.

Hayes’ time is accounted for from 1973-1977, playing football and going to college in Nebraska, but yet he claims he was in Vietnam serving his country.

How could this be?

Robert Gene Hayes’ military records were ordered through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.  NPRC said “who?”

This case is a head-scratcher.

Who would not be proud of playing football for Nebraska?  Or maybe that is presumptuous and there is some reason to adopt the “US Marine Corps-Vietnam Vet-US Army Special Forces-Black Ops” persona?

The answer may lie in the now-defunct website http://adviceforveterans.com   It can still be accessed from 2011 – 2013 on the internet Wayback Machine: http://web.archive.org/web/20120331142232/http://adviceforveterans.com/

He appeared to want to carve out a niche for himself using a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology.  Perhaps the pressure was just too great to empathize with military veteran patients?

OH, here we go.

Having a good life while NOT serving makes him feel inadequate, NOT a REAL man, just another schmoe who didn’t get his draft notice and didn’t have to go an protest the war, so there aren’t any photos of him and the hippie draft dodgers marching against The War.

Whattajerk!!!

Bob Hayes never served a day in the Marine Corps or Army or VN. Hayes isn’t worthy of even holding the jock strap of a real Marine or Soldier. Legendary Coach Tom Osborne should have this shit bag’s name expunged from the official Nebraska football records.

Should be the old metal buckle belt. Loved that belt until OCS and having to keep every spec of metal painted all the time.

Nebraska was a helluva powerhouse in the ’70s. Seems to me they were pretty much always ranked in the top five.

Some guy who was a third string QB for UCLA took and beat Nebraska in ’72… he later became an actor:

Yes, the 80’s called and they want their web belt back. Or is it the 90’s? The Claw will know. Also, the cow in that photo with him is wearing an officer’s AG44 jacket with her “cunt” cap. How apropos, considering who she is hugging.

What a douche…the guy lived the college jock fantasy many of us dreamed about. Recruited to a national powerhouse like Nebraska in the 70’s. Guys like the QB, Vince Ferragamo, led the Rams to the Super Bowl. He couldn’t be satisfied with all that so he goes all “Black Op…sole survivor” nonsense to try cover his tracks. He’s pulled off a rare double play by shitting on his actual Husker past and claiming memories that many wish they never had…FTG!!!

HT '83-'87

Here he is listed as Football Letterman in 1975. Talk about Black Ops…slaying Charlie in the jungles, fleeing on the last Huey, and then back to Lincoln in time suit against the best of The Big 8. A tip of the cap to you…this has to be an all-time whopper.

Love a guy who wears the hat, shirt, and puts all kinds of posts out about his service then when asked basic questions about his service is all “I can’t talk about it.”

Mustang Major

Of course he can’t talk about it- there wasn’t any! The most truthful statement he ever made about his non-service.

Ncat

Actually reminds me of this clip from an important historical war documentary! Ummm….

Keepin' It Real

As he was crawling through the bush after finishing a black ops mission where all but himself were wiped out, he noticed a house in the clearing with a car parked out front.

The bumper sticker read: “MY OTHER VEHICLE IS A HUEY” and he knew his luck was about to change.

HMCS(FMF) ret

Looks like ROBERT HAYES is playing some of the Stolen Valor cards:

– Service in the Viet of the Nam
– Purple Heart
– Sooper Seekrit service
– All of his “buddies” killed, sole survivor
– Helped by Long Duc Dong (GONG)

ROBERT HAYES needs to up his game… gotta have the bike, vest and support critter to be “real deal”.

I’m also going to guess that maybe his Doctorate in Clinical Psychology maybe from a diploma mill?

Played for the Huskers in the 70’s… I’d don’t think that Coach Osborne wold be happy seeing this from one of his former players.

Hope the missus sees this shitstorm that ROBERT HAYES has made for himself…

“– All of his “buddies” killed, sole survivor”

I’m pretty sure one of them died in his arms but he can’t talk about it. Gawd, I’m choking up just thinking about it. Hope he spared the wife that memory.

We had quite a convo on her claims of riding in Hueys to the bush to rescue WIA’s as an Army Nurse. Some who were never in the Viet of the Nam thought that might he possible. Uh, no, never happened. As I commented at the time, no nurses rode to the bush to rescue anyone. They were sufficiently busy in the rear caring for those that survived that helo ride to the evac hospitals.
But “Doctor” Hayes here is apparently a licensed Mind Reader, so he has that going for him. He was busy being a BMOC during his “Vietnam times.”

3/10/MED/b

rgr769,

YES on all of the above.

TAH trivia…

(Don’t know if I am authorized, but sometimes it’s better to ask for forgiveness rather than permission…)

Who was the POS that came up with
“Viet of the Nam”?

Claw

“Who was the POS?”

That came from a Poser Turd that the Master Blaster (AKA MCPONYCRet) busted at a Veteran’s Day Parade a couple of years ago.

IIRC, the Poser claimed to be SGM “Smith” and he had been in charge of the Phoenix Program while in the “Viet of the Nam”.

Claw

It was TAH Blog #68915, and was dated 13 Nov 86. Ken Smith was the alias used.

Had to scroll all the way back through Phony Soldiers to find it since the “Search” feature went AWOL with the changeover./s

“BMOC”

Being exposed as a phony on a Monday gives Robert Hays a full week to get his BS explained to all of his friends and then be able to enjoy the weekend. Makes me wonder if being exposed on a Friday might cause a bigger sh!tstorm and ruin a poser’s weekend.

Anyway, anday is a good day to expose a fraud poser.

I’m glad he isn’t related to The late IWO Jima flag raiser Marine Ira Hayes.

Daisy Cutter

The “the guy happened to have a Huey parked out back” was hilarious.

Sounds as if he was telling a story – “There I was, ill, the very life draining out of me, lost all my buddies, losing hope…”

“Yeah, then what happened?”

And it was the end of a long night and he was getting tired so he cut the story short. “A little boy found me, took me to another Vet who happened to have a Huey parked out back.”

cc senor

But the real Robert Hayes flew over Macho Grande.

Mark A. Lauer

You never get over Macho Grande….

How dare you doubt the validity of his tale. Not only was there a veteran with a Huey, he was none other than the late, great Bob King aka “Spooky 8!”

Blake Morgan

TOM OSBORNE: Son, you are going to have to make a choice between playing football for the Corn Huskers or fighting for your country in Vietnam.

BOB HAYES: Coach, I think I can do both. If you let me try I promise I won’t let full time active duty in Vietnam get in the way of showing up for football practice everyday. It was always my dream to be a Corn Holer…er, Husker.

USMCMSgt (Ret)

He went to college, played football for Nebraska, and a SR-71 would transport him to Vietnam to perform his active duty missions -back and forth.

He would get his homework done in the plane and get a few winks of sleep before landing.

rgr769

Yes, they specially designed the back seat of an SR-71 so they could move black operators like Hayes to and from the Viet of the Nam. The real purpose of that rear cockpit compartment is still a highly guarded national secret. Now everyone who knows will have to be silenced.
Interesting factoid: That rear compartment had no flight controls, as the surveillance systems officer who rode back there was not a pilot. There was one dual control SR-71 which was used for flight training, but it had a higher canopy with a windscreen so the instructor could see forward to land.

Mustang Major

Looking at his attempt to develop business with the PTSD military community is very shameful if his sales pitch included the theme, “I was there and know what you are going through” BS.

I wonder if he should be reported to California’s bird of Psychologist Licensing?

Keepin' It Real

He claims that he is retired and writing books now.

Books about what? His non-existent experiences in the military or treating PTSD based on insight gained from those non-existent experiences?

I agree that someone in authority should examine this, but my point above is that pulling his license may not do much since he retired. This is a classic case where stolen valor may come into play if he used any of those claims to gain business. This is not even considering the horrible thought of him treating people for PTSD and them believing that he has personal insight into it and thus can relate.

AnotherPat

Keepin’ It Real:

According to Kern County records, his First Wife was awarded Spousal Support…and for some reason, the California Education Retirement System kept popping up under Hayes’s name…

Dude just turned 64 this past May. May be collecting SSN early to pay the Spousal Support…or possibly may be drawing now that retirement check from California.

Won’t be surprise if he does write a book…Trust Me…I have read other books from phonies…I buy them and then complain to the Company that they sold me a bogus book and got refunds, after reading those books..

And there are more out there….lying about being a Vietnam POW…lying about service in WWII (yet, WWII..)

Self-Publishing Companies just don’t care. They want the $$$$$..

Good analysis.

I thought you were suggesting the name of his book would be “Trust Me” and gave me a slight chuckle.

Hondo,

Looks as if California Southern University is a 100% On Line Degree Program…(that is what he claims to have received his Degree)…

http://www.calsouthern.edu/online-degree-programs/online-doctorate-degree-programs

“The Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) is the online doctoral degree program in CalSouthern’s School of Behavioral Sciences. Unlike the research-intensive PhD, the PsyD is far more clinically focused. Emphasizing counseling and therapy, the PsyD can prepare learners for virtually any position in any organizational hierarchy within the field of psychology. It can also lead to a career in academics, particularly if the program is clinically focused.”

“For those looking to practice as a licensed clinical psychologist, CalSouthern’s PsyD meets the educational requirements for licensure in the state of California and numerous other states. (Since states’ policies are subject to change and/or dependent upon the circumstances of each case, each student must confirm with the appropriate regulatory body that CalSouthern’s degree will be accepted in a particular state.”

Comm Center Rat

AP, an excellent summary of the PsyD degree which my daughter earned with a specialization in clinical psychology. She however, went to a legitimate APA approved residential program in Massachusetts not an online diploma mill. After a post-doctoral fellowship and another year working for a large, multi-office firm in Boston she just opened her own practice in April. I’ve always encouraged her to consider an officer commission or a civil service position in one of the military departments. After 10 years in Beantown I don’t think she’s gonna leave.

I wouldn’t discount online degree programs. I’ve seen doctoral dissertations written by people who went to an online program, as well as those written by those who attended the residency. Not much difference in quality.

There was an instance where a member of an online university’s faculty took samples of dissertations written under the online program, and showed them to his friend, who was a faculty at one of the Ivy League schools. The Ivy League professor described the sample dissertations as being good quality, above most of what he had seen from a similar discipline at his university.

California Southern University is an accredited university, not like the university that someone went to a few years back. Online universities would require a form of “boots on the ground” experience when it comes to nursing or similar practicing professions. The linked university calls it a “practicum”.

The way university education is evolving, many universities are offering online programs at some or all levels.

The Stranger

I concur. I have 2 Bachelors that I completed online after giving up on ever finishing what with travel for my civilian job and getting mobilized/training. I’m about a third of the way through my MBA. All of my degrees are from accredited schools and are backed by 25 years of experience. My MBA is being paid between Post 9-11 and my employer. I do agree with the sentiment that you have to watch out with online education. If it seems too easy, it’s a diploma mill.

Comm Center Rat

thebesig I’m not discounting online education only PsyD and PhD programs that are not accredited by the American Psychological Association (APA). California Southern University is not APA accredited for it’s psychology program as of October 2018. The university is regionally accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) only. The State of California Board of Psychology (California Department of Consumer Affairs) does accept California Southern University’s Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) degree as meeting the educational requirements for licensure to practice as a clinical psychologist.

However, you can’t work as a psychologist for the VA or as a commissioned military officer without earning an APA accredited doctoral degree. Admission to APA accredited doctoral programs is most selective and competitive. And, post doctoral fellowships require an APA accredited doctorate.

Buyer beware!

The Stranger

You bring up a good point when you mentioned the difference between a school being regionally accredited and a specific program having professional accreditation. On my side of the fence, an Engineering or Engineering Technology degree from a program that isn’t ABET accredited is basically worthless.

USMCMSgt (Ret)

Cocksucker.

AnotherPat

The Cornhuskers do not have a Yearbook for the years he attended.

Do know they had US Army ROTC during that time.

Chance that he might have attended ROTC, but dropped out….thus thinking he was a “Vietnam (Era) Veteran?

Or had Cadre that were Vietnam Veterans and that is where he got his war stories?

Or possibly listening to Vietnam Vets tell their “war stories” while serving as an Registered Psychological Assistant in California…and using their stories as his stories?

Or may come back and say “I’m wearing all this gear in honor of those Vietnam Vets…they gave me their hats to wear…”

Questions, Questions, Questions…

AnotherPat

Hmmmm…

Found an interesting December 1977 newspaper article on him…his wedding announcement with his first wife…

Article stated he attended Cornhuster School AND CAL STATE in Bakersfield…and worked as a Sales Manager at BE Scientific…

No mention of any Military Service.

Engagement announcement was posted in 1976. First wife is from his hometown.

Interesting…

From his facebook page. Famous quote.

Lincoln, Nebraska?

Marine Corps?

LOL…in reading some Lincoln, Nebraska newspaper articles from 1975-1976, the State of Nebraska took away Hayes Driver’s License in 1975….but did he learn?

Nope…he got caught in 1976 driving without a License….

Say….wasn’t Nathan Phillips in Lincoln, Nebraska at the same time with his criminal problems…You know…the Marine Corps Refrigerator Recon Nathan Phillips who went AWOL and lied about being a Vietnam Vet…

Maybe that is where Hayes got his Vietan Stories…if you look at his Facebook, he DOES have a Native American figure as well as pictures of “DreamCatchers”..

*Smile*

AnotherPat

Last…and I am out the door..

His first wife’s uncle was a Marine during WWII and received a Purple Heart…

Those two were married almost over 30 years…

Perhaps he heard war stories from her Uncle…and then used them as his story of being a Marine…and in combat…

How ironic that this Dude supposely has a Degree (he got it on line) to be a Registered Psychological Assistant…supposely talking to others about PTSD, when it is so obvious this guy is the one that needs to seek professional help…..

Sheesh…Some People…

Harry

This is why I never thanked anyone for their service – because odds are you’re either thanking a lying poser piece of shit or a scumbag who shouldn’t be thanked for anything.

akpual

What percentage of people wearing Vietnam veteran hats do yo think are phonies?

Claw

The Hair posted a little blurb about that and it went like this:

“A Census taken during August, 2000, showed the surviving U.S. Vietnam Veteran population estimate to be: 1,002,511. During the Census count, the number of Americans falsely claiming to have served in-country is: 13,853,027. By this census, FOUR OUT OF FIVE WHO CLAIM TO BE Vietnam vets are not.”

YMMV as to the accuracy of the statement./s

rgr769

Based on those numbers and given that there are now likely less than 900,000 Vietnam Vets still living, I am betting the ratio of POSers to real vets is about 15 to 1.

Claw

The American War Library put out a notice dated 28 Feb 2019 that said:

As of this date, the AWL estimates that approximately 610,000 Americans who served on land in Vietnam between 1954 and 1975 are alive today. And approximately 164,000 Americans who served at sea in Vietnam waters are alive today.

So, we really are becoming the Few, the Happy Few.

rgr769

Looks like my estimate was only off by about 100K. But in 2035 there will still be supposed “homeless” Vietnam vets on the street corners with their effing cardboard signs begging for cash.

Poetrooper

Claw, I just went over a 2000 Census Long Form and while there is a place to check if you were a Vietnam “Era” veteran, there is no place to indicate whether you were “In country.”

I think that report is apocryphal.

Claw

Hence the YMMV notation.

I myself believe it is one of those “Garbage In – Garbage Out” syndrome type of things./smile

Mustang Major

In the commissary or PX- less than 10% are phony; In the general public- about 90%.

Poetrooper

I’ll wager the greatest concentrations of phonies can be found in American Legion, VFW, and other veteran service clubs, followed closely by motorcycle clubs.

The Stranger

You may be right, Poe. If the archives here are anything to go by. I sure do miss having the search feature.

Comm Center Rat

Harry: Love your reasoning and I employ the same tactic. I don’t wear any military bling and I’m immediately suspicious when I see someone who does. The only thanks I need for my service is the retired pay deposited into my checking account the first of each month. Nothing to see here, please move along.

26Limabeans

A small pin of crossed flags and torch worn in an inconspicuous spot is a nice touch.
Compliments my bald head.

Poetrooper

CCR, seems to me that you and Harry are allowing the jerks to control your behavior which is akin to allowing the PC libs to control our speech. Why let a few assholes (and I think these estimates of the number of phonies are suspiciously high) determine how you react with your fellow veterans?

As for “bling” I seldom wear a Vietnam vet cap but I do wear my 101st and 82d Airborne caps on occasion as well as a cap with embroidered jump wings, all three out of a sense of pride at having served with some of America’s finest soldiers. However, I find myself wearing my National Rifle Association and Ruger Firearms caps more often than the military caps.

I’ve been told the NRA is looked at by blacks as similar to the KKK which is of course ridiculous. My yard man says that’s mostly the black activist types, but I have had a few blacks act rudely when I wear the NRA cap. Tough shit–I’m not going to let someone else’s ignorance, attitude or behavior determine what I wear or what I do.

I’ve been wearing military caps for more than fifty years–started doing it as big middle finger to the antiwar activists in the late 60’s and since then to piss off old hippies and liberal Democrats. I thrive on those dirty looks.

AnotherPat

Well, not last after all..

Finally figured it all out…

While at Cornhusker School and in between Football practice, Hayes took by Correspondence Course (courtesy of TRADOC at Fort Eustis, VA) the “There I Was…Knee Deep In the Jungles of Vietnam” …and passed with flying colors…

Then again, playing football might have damaged his brain. That is the theory as to why a certain Orange Juice went on a Bronco Ride 25 years ago today, 17 June 1994…

(Sarc On).

Or he probably watched “Predator” too many times…

“Get To the Choppa!!!”

Morgan Blake

I bet the wife has no idea. This will be interesting.

AnotherPat

Count Down to his Book Of Face disappearing…

Three…Two…One…

Or the current Wife coming on here (or a Sockpuppet defending him).

Or him saying “Hey, I’m wearing those hats in honor of those guys who gave it to me…the ones I counseled..”

Saw his Spousal Unit’s picture where she is wearing a SF baseball cap…Wonder where she got it…

Do know his first wife still lives in Bakersfield. Wish someone would ask her about his “Vietnam” stories…

Yep…Hayes definitely has Dain Bramage…can’t believe he does not realize there are Search Engines on the Internet that can uncover his bogus story to include his DOB and Place of Birth, his High School Yearbook, his time at Cornhusker School, his marriage and divorce, his license…etc. etc.

And who gets hurt in the end? Well, most likely his Spousal Unit…possibly relatives…and of course, those folks who opened up to him when he was counseling them on “PTSD”…

Sheesh…

Ok, OK here’s how she meant to type it. “He was in Lincoln, Nebraska, and very ill. A Young kid, Ashland, Neb, area led him to a guy who was living in Greenwood, Neb, a UN dropout. The guy happened to have a Rambler parked out back.”

Born in the U.S.A., born in the U.S.A.

I had a brother at Khe Sahn
Fighting off the Viet Cong
They’re still there, he’s all gone

Robert Hayes and Nathan Phillips must’ve served in the same Special Forces and Marine Corps units during those “Vietnam times” so eloquently described by another distant observer of the conflict, Bruce Springsteen.

rgr769

Bruce couldn’t even get his lyrics historically accurate. Khe Sahn combat base was attacked by numerous NVA regiments, not Viet Cong guerillas.

Eden

Yeah, but “NVA” doesn’t rhyme with “Khe Sahn”. Poetic license, ya know.

Hondo

“Khe Sahn” doesn’t rhyme worth a damn with “Viet Cong”, either.

Eden

True, true. . .

I’m thinking more and more that Robert Gene Hayes needs to hear:

“Hello, Welcome, and have a seat, please. My name is Dan Noyes from ABC7 and we have heard some rumors.”

Haha!! Can we sell tickets to that event? Might pay TAH’s bill for another year.

Hondo

On a semi-serious note: has anyone forwarded a link to this one (either on this site or on Military Phoney) to Dan? It does seem like something that might pique his interest.

For those of you wondering, the height restriction for Marines is 58 to 78 inches, so Robert Hayes theoretically made it under the wire.

My guess as to why you never see a 7’2″ tall Marine… Easy target? Hatches on a ship?

Jay

Not entirely accurate. There are waivers for everything. Back in 2012, we had a Comm Marine that was 6’10. He was on the CLB for the MEU. Funniest thing seeing him do shipboard workups. Dude was MISERABLE.

Jay

Same MEU Det, also had a cook that was 6’7….and he wasn’t done growing.

Cotton Hill got a waiver after the Japs shot off his legs and the VA sewed them back on albeit a bit shorter than regs so yeah it does happen.

Dear Doctor Hayes,

I have been struggling with getting Uncle Sugar to fork over the sweet, sweet nectar of taxpayer dollars. I understand from your history that you may be the one to help me with my Post Taxpayer Super Dollars (PTSD) problem.

Also, can you explain to me how you attained a doctorate with anal-cranial inversion? Was it hard to read the screen during your research with your head up your ass? Does one use a periscope?

Last, when you counsel those who have actually been to combat and served in the armed forces, do you lie right out in their faces, or sugar coat that bull shit?

Thanks,

Comment #100 – Halfway to the Big Show!!

rgr769

Gee Whiz, Robert Gene Hayes, you were a sophomore in high school in Bakersfield when I was in Vietnam. You didn’t graduate until May or June 1973, after all the Army Special Forces units and Marines had left Vietnam over a year earlier. To top it off, you were footballing and going to college for the four years from 1973 to 1977. So please come on this site and explain to us how you could be in junior high or high school while you were supposedly fighting the hated Cong as a marine or SF soldier. If you want to send a sock-puppet to reply, that will be an acceptable alternative to a lying coward like you.

GDContractor

What’s the big deal? Isn’t it obvious he was just counseling someone for their PTSD and that he must have unintentionally ADOPTED THEIR PERSONA?

It happens all the time! Geez.

Eden

He identifies as a Vietnam Vet.

26Limabeans

It’s like a contact high. Or in this case a low.
He should submit a VA claim on that basis.
