Daniel A. Bernath; phony CPO
Editor’s Note: Daniel A. Bernath passed away on January 21, 2018
Scotty sent this to us over the weekend and I was holding on to it for a drought, but our own Ex-PH2 was excited that Daniel A. Bernath was a PH2, too. Just by looking at the rank on his sleeve, you can tell he’s a phony since, instead of laying out the bucks for new rank, he had a stripe embroidered on the sleeve. He has service stripes for twenty years of service, but his FOIA tells a different story;
3 years and change in active service, and a couple of years in the Reserves. Now let’s do some math – you’ll need most of your fingers, he’s wearing seven awards in the picture and the FOIA says that he has five. Well, finally we got a Navy phony who is not a SEAL.

NH. So I called him and told him that he was not an Honorary CPO and further that he was not authorized to wear the uniform.
I informed him that only the MCPON could bestow the Honorary CPO desination and the tool asked “by what authority and statute”.
So, I have been in touch with the MCPON’s office … We will see here shortly about the MCPON’s authority.
During the short conversation, he was arogant, rude and just unpleasant. The manner in which carried himself on the phone speaks volumes!
IOW, he acted like a cornered rat. Tries to fight, but even in his mind, he knows he’s screwed.
Caddy and all. Maybe he and Psulie-boi can get into a kitten fight over which overpriced 10-year old POS jalopy is “better”.
#602 ExHack, just look at his conversation with pilots in that accident thread. They were telling him he was wrong and he did not have enough fuel. So he acted extremely arrogant about the situation and was in denial. As if its the company fault. Despite the fact that 100 percent of the board was against him and his lawsuit against Flight Designs. He still tried to make up some BS about how he was helping others. He surely does enjoy twisting the story when things do not go his way.
This guy is one legit swindler. All about making a quick buck so he does not have to work.
MCPON is Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy? Like in my branch, the equivalent of Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force?
Yeah, I’d say he’s got the authority. And his Staff will find the right statute, forthwith.
Sounds like barnacle bill is a buffoon…
MCPON is the man to CNO and only E-10 in the Navy!

On going over this thread for the first time last night, something caught my eye. From post 115: “Every ribbon and medal I wear is because the Navy told me to do so on the DD214 and DD215 form.” Then, on post 117: “I took my head from pic and put it over both the pic of the other Chief and another barrister.”
The photo of person on whom he pasted you pasted his face now represents Bernath as earning an aircrew badge, five Navy Good Conduct Medals, the Navy Expeditionary Medal, and the Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal. The fake E-7 didn’t earn any of them. The worst part is that he has gone full blown Wickre once outed. We all know how this will all come out in the end. I’m just glad that you guys let me watch the melt down.
Streetsweeper, the part of the ship you are referring to is the fantail, which is the part of the deck at the stern of the ship.
A tailfan, on the other hand, is what you see when two male goldfinches are disputing territorial and female mating rights and start chasing each other like two fighter jets in a dogfight. That slim little black tail can instantly flip upward in a fan at an exact 90 degree angle to the goldfinch’s rump and allow this tiny bird to make a right angle turn, and corner like he’s on rails.
It is an effective set of built-in brakes that any fighter pilot would envy. If an aircraft engineer could design a fighter plane like that, the turn would probably knock the pilot cold. Think about the possibilities of flying such a machine in a real dogfight.
Mr.Bill, there are some older copies of that NANP roster in various place, and none of them have dandan the very bad man, a/k/a daniel a bernath as an honorary anything. He lies his ass off to get what he wants, you know. It goes back to lying at 16 to get into the Navy. Lifetime history.
Anyway… Master Chief, did you voice my specific concerns that we discussed to the MCPON? barnacle baldy bernastypants repeated what he had written on my blog on this thread in his post at #117, in the paragraph after his list of ‘enemies’.
He left some people off of it, but we let them know they’re part of it.
I am standing by.
EX-PH2. Time. Things take time!
Understood, Master Chief. Suppertime!
I need to find some chow line…. 🙂
I’m sure Daniel A. Bernath the fake E7’s favorite part of any ship is the poop deck!!

Good one Sparks, I’m gonna have to copycat that sometime!
@615 Thank you. I don’t think I ever hit an even hundred after I though about it. Learned it from someone else on another thread. By the way I have searched the web, high and low, for a photo like the one Bernath used to copy his head onto. Just cannot find one, suing every search parameter I could come up with. I will keep trying though. So it may be a photo he owns privately.

@606: yep, I read. He’s right or we’re all wrong. Yeah, no.
ExHack, Daniel A. Bernath the fake E7 is either too big of a wuss, too chickenshit, or too narcissistic to admit he fucked up, that’s how I see it!
Another nugget from “Birdbath” Bernath. During his “veteran” interview he was whining about how boot camp was so tough. He recalled saying that he figured if his Dad went through boot camp in the Army in WW2 he could make it. Then he said he talked to his dad about it, His dad supposedly told him that he never went to boot camp, he was drafted into the national guard and was sent “straight to combat”….
Does Daniel A. Bernath remind any of y’all of the cowardly lion in “The Wizard of Oz”? He always tries to bluster and bully with lawsuits, but he’s more like a crappy poker player that can’t bluff to save his own ass!
Proud? Please don’t insult the lion that way! He may have been cowardly, but he didn’t lie about it, or anything else. And, is there any proof that his cowardice hurt anyone other than himself? And, he did try to improve himself, eventually succeeding.
See, no comparison.
@OWB, OH, OKAY, yeah, you’re right,(/sarc) but I’ll stick with my crappy poker player/sore loser comparison!
@619 He is just full of bogus stories then. I am surprised he didn’t post that on his cheap little website.
Thank you, API! 😉
@Sparks, the photo of the REAL PH1 with the gold 1st Class crow is an official Navy portrait taken in a Navy portrait studio. It could have been shot at any Naval Station that used wide roll portrait backgrounds, usually heavy duty paper, and may have been done, as mine was, at NAVPHOTOCEN, which was still in operation as a photo lab (world’s largest)next door to Bolling AFB, until 2006.
Therefore, that image is archived somewhere, and I believe I know how to find out where it came from and who the sitter is. Bear with me on this.
Thanks Ex. Good to know you and Master Chief are all over this.
I still chuckle when I think how he couldn’t comprehend that an airplane’s engine will not run when it’s out of fuel, and wouldn’t accept responsibility for his mistake when he landed like an MRE turd in a slit trench!!
Ex: wonder how the “donor” PH1 will feel about Phony Chief Daniel A. Bernath’s little Photoshopping project. To be a fly on the wall.
We haven’t heard from Phony Chief Daniel A. Bernath yet today. I’m estimating he’s been overcome by rage, fading to frustration and ultimately despair at the realization that the truth is an absolute defense (even a lawyer of his limited caliber has to have had that epiphany by now). Get ready for a shortage of Ripple, NightTrain 20/20 and Olde English 800 in Tigard!
ExHack, when the time comes, we’ll know the answer to that question.
I’m sure that Daniel A. Bernath the fake E7 will be consuming Thunderbird like Psul as well!! Who will he sue next, and I also wonder how many times he’s been laughed out of a courtroom? My Dad is a retired State Judge, I ought to send him this link and see how Daniel A. Bernath the fake E7 compares to some of the kooks he’s had in front of him!
I hope Phony Chief Daniel A. Bernath carefully studies all posts and threads relating to Paul Kevin Wickre and realizes that trying to sue Jonn, TSO and Hondo will be an expensive, embarrassing dead end for him, one that will only earn him higher Gooooooogle placement and Internet fame, and maybe even another fun trip to jail.
Hopefully when the MCPON gets back with MCPO, and Ex-PH2 is able to find out the photo that Danny-boi used to Photoshop his mug on, that this info is posted on not just this website, but sent to the press in Portland, OR (TV, radio and both The Oregonian and Willamette Week). Maybe the Tigard VFW that he is a member of will do the right thing and boot his ass out for being a FRAUD, LIAR and DEADBEAT DAD.
Karma is a mofo bytch, Danny-boi… and there’s a PAIN TRAIN full of it coming your way real soon!

@631, ExHack, I doubt he will, and I think it’ll be much more fun to watch him “Wickre out” at full throttle! He won’t have to worry about fuel, we already know he runs on a perpetually full tank of STUPID!
Anybody still here? *OOOOWOOOOOOO!*
Damn, I hate working the night shift!
Also working the night shift, but I’m about done. It’s been a long one, uggh.
I envy you, thanks to a schedule change, I have to work a 16 hour shift and switch to days starting tomorrow!
Buttblast Bernath reminds me of a six-year old who has been caught lying, but rather than simply fess up, he thinks his wild imagination and/or sticking to his guns in the face of someone who has BTDT is somehow going to get him through.
I think somewhere in the back of his benumbed little brain he knows he dare not sue, because he has just enough experience in the legal community that 1–he knows what “discovery” means, 2–he’s not going to risk perjury by lying under oath or submitting forged documentation, 3–he’s pissed away any good will in the legal (and pretty much all other) communities in which he sticks his mug.
Then again, I’ve been wrong before.
Morning, guys. I see it’s quiet on all fronts so far. Maybe bernath the fake CPO is contemplating his next move.
Proud, yoyu’re switching to a day job on a Tuesday? Not enough caffeine in the world! Oh, you’ll be okay.
I must be on Broadway. I’m still kicking. 🙂
I am way late on this thread, and am approaching comment 300 at this time. Not sure if anyone has made the connection yet, but come on, people. An airplane runs out of fuel and crashes? And no one has thought of making a “World According To Honorary CPO Daniel A. Bernath” reference yet?
And I tried to read his nomination letters for Honorary CPO, but unfortunately, was only able to make it almost to the end of the first “nomination” (comment 147)before bailing out. I think that my tenth grade English teacher would be required to perform ritual suicide after reading “PHC Milt Putnam’s” nomination. I imagine that the others are pretty much the same verbal diarrhea.
Oh yes, Hack, and keep reading. But put down the coffee/tea mug because there are some posts that really do require a spew alert here.
We not only have ‘pulled a wickre’, but also ‘pulled a bernath’ for our reference to behavior by wankers. And did you do a comprehensive reading of #117. He left you off his ‘list’ because he didn’t know about you, you stud muffin.
Be careful. It’s hard to follow his trainwreck of thought.
Dang, CB Senior, you killed me on comments 435 and 436.
@640 “It’s hard to follow his trainwreck of thought.”
Ex, good point. That is something that has always surprised me on this thread. An attorney who writes as he does. I understand the legal language of suits and briefs are far different than simple writing but his thought process, written out, belies a very upset and frightened man. I imagine upset and fright at the proposition of being outed as what he truly is.

Is an ass hole.
Sparks, that’s an insult to assholes.
Ex-PH2, I switch from days to nights every week, a rotating shift. But instead of a day or two off between shifts, I have to swap like this because I got switched to a different crew. I’ll survive, even if it kills me!!
Proud, you have my sympathy.
A Proud Infidel@620, more like the Tin Man. If he only had a brain. His favorite Jackson Browne song is Running On Empty.
Ex-PH2 – You wouldn’t, by chance, be a member of the organization which presumably gave the fake E-7 his honorary award? Being an Ex-MT2(SS), I’m not allowed admittance to an organization for photographers, but I’m thinking that someone who is a member should be able to see if the “honorary” award was actually bestowed, if there is a way to have it rescinded, particularly since it looks like he pulled a “John F’ing Kerry” with the nomination letters (based on your stellar research).
Bobo, no, I am not. Didn’t know about it until December 2013, when this individual showed up on Scotty’s blog. It’s just a social club, a vets’ group, like the VVA.
I’ve read a few other things about him when I did a bing search on him (This thread showed up in the top eight), and he’s definitely fifty one cards shy of a deck!
Maybe we haven’t heard from Daniel A. Bernard because he is really on a cruise. Maybe we should ask Carnival Lines if they could do a cruise just for posers. Have lots of photographers on board. Then before the last port of call…keelhaul all of them! Especially:

In regards to @643, you are so right Ex. My apologies to all true simple, ass holes. Daniel A. Bernath far our strips the maximum requirements to be called just an ass hole.
@650 – I imagine he’s sailing on the “Carnival Imagination” or the “Disney Fantasy”.
Naw, he’s probably trying to figure out some way to ‘psue’ TAH, et al., as did psul the uncool, AS TO AS TO AS TO whether or not he has the title of honorary chicken plucking official.
Or maybe he’s just afraid to show his head here. We must be patient.
Sparks, maybe they ought to do a cruise for posers, featuring Milli Vanilli for entertainment!
