Thomas Cole – Phony Urgent Fury Commando
The folks at MilitaryPhony send us their work on this Thomas William Cole fella. Cole comes to us from Pendleton, Indiana. At the time of this writing, October 2021, Cole is 57 years old.
In the photo above, Cole wears a baseball cap with the designation “PURPLE HEART – COMBAT VETERAN.” He appears to wear this cap often.
There is also a claim of combat-wounded on his Facebook page.
There’s also a claim on Cole’s Facebook page that he held the MOS of 98G2LAP in addition to serving from 1982 – 1996 with the 82nd Airborne.
And then there is a claim of being a SGT (E-5) while stationed with the 82nd Airborne.
Since there’s a Facebook post claiming that Cole jumped into Grenada during Operation Urgent Fury in 1983, that would mean he saw action as a SGT (E-5).
There is an implication that Cole is the serviceman in the photo. This photo is used throughout his Facebook profile, and even used as his profile picture.
However, this photo is from the Department of the Navy, taken by PH2 David Wujcik, has a VIN number of ‘DN-ST-85-02006’ and can be easily searched on the internet. The official DoD caption for this photograph reads:
In the post above made on Facebook about jumping into Grenada, there is a claim that Cole was shot in the chest. On Cole’s LinkedIn page, there is a claim of two Purple Hearts for being wounded in combat.
Also on Cole’s LinkedIn page, there is a claim of a Bronze Star.
If that’s not all, this photo shows Cole with a long tab tattoo, which implies he was in Special Forces.
. . . . .
So what’s the Army got to say about all of this badassery?
US ARMY HUMAN RESOURCES COMMAND (HRC)
The entire FOIA result is provided below, but MP extracted and consolidated all pertinent information such as rank and duty stations into a summary table. This table was not provided by the U.S. Army, but the information that they provided is summarized in the table.
. . . . .
. . . . .
DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE MANPOWER DATA CENTER (SCRA)
We searched the DoD Manpower Data Center database and found the following service listing for Thomas William Cole.
This database was searched as well for any other active duty to present day. It did not show anything but sometimes the database is not reliable for recall to active duty from reserve status. This appears to be consistent with Cole’s NGB 22, however.
. . . . .
OTHER RESEARCH
A newspaper article listing the servicemen killed and wounded in Grenada does not list Thomas Cole.
A case could be made that the above list is early reporting and therefore not complete but the claim in Cole’s post is that he was shot in the chest on the day he jumped in, so it would represent an early casualty — if true. Although there were some early recon elements that went in early, the main invasion of Grenada was on October 25, 1983 vs. October 23, 1983.. . . . .
DISCUSSION and SUMMARY
LENGTH OF SERVICE
There are discrepancies between Cole’s claim of being in the Army and at 82nd Airborne for the length of time he claimed compared to the NGB 22 file.
RANK
Cole was discharged as a SPC (E-4) vs. the SGT (E-5) claimed. The summary of the FOIA results do not support a claim for the rank of SGT (E-5).
MOS
We couldn’t find that Cole was ever assigned the MOS of 98G2LAP but it could be the case.
SPECIAL FORCES
Although Cole was in the 82 Airborne, there was nothing in his records to support a claim of Special Forces as his tattoo implies.
COMBAT
His records do not support the claims that Cole served in combat.
AWARDS
Cole’s records show no award of the Purple Heart – not to mention the two (2) that were claimed. Even though the NGB 22, which parallels that of a DD-214, does not have a Purple Heart listed, it would include all prior medals to date.
SUMMARY
If Thomas Cole has used any of these claims to gain anything of value and they are not true then he could be in violation of the Stolen Valor Act.
It would be interesting to see if ol’ Tommy boy can explain all of this. Right now, he seems a tad busy fixing his Facebook page to get rid of a lot of the above. Maybe the Army just forgot to mention anything about him being wounded in combat twice while doing all that record-keeping stuff.
Some of you around here might find this shocking but I am going to go out on a limb here and suggest that maybe, just maybe… Tommy might be full of shit. Then again, maybe there is some perfectly reasonable explanation for all those claims.
Maybe we should start including a “Valor Vulture” Excuse and Warped Explanations Form with each of our cases. It’s not like we could have heard them all yet… or is it? We have had some creative ones over the years. I just want one of the boxes for selection to say, “I embellished my actual Military Service beyond recognition with grabasstic nonsense because I have a puss-filled ego that has gone rancid and turned my life into one giant clusterphuck.”
I am not saying that Tommy here should check that box, but I am not saying he shouldn’t seriously think about it.
I am going with either “They tried to give me the medals but I refused them because I didn’t think I deserved them” or “My Combat Records are sealed by the CIA so only ‘Brandon’ can read them now”.

Tommy Cole is so fking high’sped’ I bet he didn’t even attend ABIC.
82nd AIRBORNE-history only two (2) paratroopers from the 82nd jumped with the RANGERS. Two heavy junk operaters from the 618th LE (light eqwepment company). So it is a very small list.
IIRC, there were two guys from the 82nd who participated in the jump in Grenada with the Rangers. Unfortunately for dingus they were both heavy equipment operators that were added last minute to move the construction equipment the Cubans had strewn the runway on Point Salinas with. As I recall it was one of them’s cherry blast to boot. What a frickin’ idjit, just take a huge dump on a legit career to gain some props. SMH.
325th INF Regiment (2nd Brigade of 82nd) air landed after the Ranger’s secured Point Salinas. This would have included elements of the 313th MI BN in direct support.
I don’t know if I’m buying that, but things may have changed between 83 and 95-96. In the mid 90s I met the 24 biggest human beings I’d ever seen in one place. They were members of the Ranger battalion from Ft Stewart. They were a runway clearing team. Not only were they huge, but they were armed to the teeth.
Their job was to jump out of a perfectly good airplane, with the other Rangers that were seizing an airfield (at night) and remove obstacles from the runway. Part of their METL (Mission Essential Task List?) was to be able to declutch the tracks and push a Cat D-8 bulldozer 50 yards to clear the runway. Their is no doubt in my mind they could do it as well a push, drag, pull or roll anything out of the way so planes with follow on forces could air land.
That was the first of two JSOC training events I participated in and getting to face to face with something other than air elements of the services was eye opening.
TRUE- The FNG got picked up in Company TV room that weekend “grab your $HIT!”.
618th aka NASTY
When I retire for good I am buying a dog, a Harley, a MC vest and telling everyone who will listen that I worked at a cat food factory or made office furniture for 40 years. I might even get a Meow-Mix Tat as proof.
Aliens made him do it.
From which country?
Cuba
The records Show he initially Qualified as a Cavalry Scout and and Infantrymen. Then he got assigned to an ADA unit and got Stinger Qualified…good for him. Not sure why they sent him to the NBC course twice, once was plenty for me!!
Claiming to be an Arabic/Serian speaking MI interceptor is quite different from what an Infantrymen does. Seeing as how he was assigned to the 313th MI BN, as an infantrymen, he was likely with the Division Long Range Reconnaissance and Surveillance (LRRS) element that often included 98G types. The problem is that LRRS did not go over to 313th MI BN until the 1990s (he was there in 1984-1985) and he appears to have been in the A-Co which was direct support to one of the Brigades. Combat Electronic Warfare Intelligence (CEWI) units assigned to 82nd would not have been doing much EW, they would have been emplacing and running RMBASS and PPS-15/5 systems. The light guys did not have much in the way of actual radio intercept or jamming. If he had been in Grenada or Panama (which the 313th did participate in) he would have earned A Superior Unit Award for his permanent record. Based on your unit assignment history above it looks like he got there right after they got back…man he would have heard an ear full!!
I served in plenty of units like that, and everyone there before you likes to Lord it over your Head: “Drop if you ain’t got matching shoulders!”
He had a good run, he shouldn’t embellish it! Wonder how he did get shot in the chest? Hunting accident?
Interesting that if he was an EW NCO he got out as an E4 grunt, and that DLI is not on his 214. He shows 98G school but normally unless a native speaker, language school is required. Reserve gigs for 98G are rare so switching to combat arms could be understandable, but wht wouldn’t 98G show up as a secondary?
At least Lars has someone he can relate to now. First phony 98G I remember.
It takes a special talent to swallow a beach ball without popping it.
You, sonofaBITCH!!!
🤨😳😲😠
I almost choked myself…on fucking AIR.
I am totally thinking of seeing how I can insert this into The As(s)teroid of Insults®™
FUCK YOU CARLTON, just FUCK YOU!!!
YOU JUST MADE THE LIST, BUDDY!!! (Said in the most loving way)
Thank you, thank you very much.
“Wonder how he did get shot in the chest?” Imma gonna go with nocturnal discharge, short round, that missed his face.
Got a heads up on this POS evening last from MP. No way to comment on MP. We have here now, Thomas William Cole, a POS of the FIRST (ht 2 Roh-Dog) Degree. Had what seemed to be perfectly Honorable Service, during a time that many would not serve, and took a great big steaming dump upon it. I strongly believe you better give your worthless soul (sic) to God, because your ass belongs to us now. Good luck with that. The Big Guy that downloaded the Text to a Tablet is not real fond of people that violate the provisions of His Texts. The record does not reflect your embellished tales of derring do or any record of the School of jumping out of perfectly good airplanes. Why’d ya have ta lie Tommie Willie?
The worst part of your claims is the awarding of the Purple Heart. You, POS, are standing on the bodies and in the blood of True Warriors. IMHO that alone qualifies you for a deployment of the Vaunted TAH ASSteroid of Insults. ESAD MOFO!!!
Can I get a SECOND and an AYE?
“The record does not reflect your embellished tales of derring do or any record of the School of jumping out of perfectly good airplanes.”
To be fair to him, it says in Block 15 of his NGB-22/DD-214 as the third medal in “PRCHTBAD” which I take to mean Parachutist Badge.
I don’t, however, see a “PH.”
Thanks tshe, I missed that. Print blurs a lot when I expand the screen and I was looking for a record of assignment to the Benning School for Wayward Children. Wonder where his did Jump School? Fort Mac? At Bragg?
I’m here KoB and awaiting proper Roberts Rules to take force. (give it time) and again in case you missed it.
FUCK YOU CARLTON!!!!! 😀 😀 😀
Con una chingada! Pinches huevones!
SEGUNDO!
That’s two.
Do we have an AYE?
(LOL Stranger Google translate is hilarious some times. ” With a fuck! Fucking assholes! SECOND! ” )
Aye! Ay yi yi! Send it!
Alrighty then folks, we’ve met the Roberty Rules requirements and away we GOOOOOOOOO…. Hold on to your hats because *poof*, (dusts off the massive, engorged document), it’s time for…..

Patton Quote added to the end …
On George S. Patton: (Multiple sources but… http://www.pattonhq.com/speech.html )
“He could, when necessary, open up with both barrels and let forth such blue-flamed phrases that they seemed almost eloquent in their delivery. When asked by his nephew about his profanity, Patton remarked, “When I want my men to remember something important, to really make it stick, I give it to them double dirty. It may not sound nice to some bunch of little old ladies at an afternoon tea party, but it helps my soldiers to remember. You can’t run an army without profanity; and it has to be eloquent profanity. An Army without profanity couldn’t fight its way out of a piss-soaked paper bag.” “
————————–
Speaking of using words, of late, I’ve been reminded of someone who gave us this classic piece, something many of us grew up with and is, in my opinion, worthy of consideration, having assembled this diatribe, I give to you this…The Man and His Work.
And as the entire Cadre of TAH Miscreanted deplorable weeds and weedettes Chorused AMEN!…Gun Bunny wept!
Actually it’s more along the lines of “What the fuck! Fucking lazy assholes!” Profanity doesn’t translate well.
Ha, fucking – GOO-gee-elle . Retards
Let’s try it one more time.
Age restricted – meaning most of us are too damn old to view it!
I nominate him for the Purple Bunghole award.
Thought on seeing a real, accurate, for the record “Purple Heart Combat Veteran” cap: Dude, WTF? And: “Bronze Star Combat Valor,” same Dude, WTF?
SgtBob,
I cringe when I see these Purple Heart / Combat Veteran caps
for sale at the large local weekly flea markets,
alongside the cap stand’s more common veteran caps.
1 row over from Eagles and Steelers caps.
They stock half a dozen of these Purple Heart / CV caps,
as well as Bronze Star caps,
when the actual likelihood of eligible customers waltzing by
on any given week…. is 1 to 0.
As a result, anyone out there can plop down $12,
and play pretend war hero on the cheap.
In Amish country, no less.
“In Amish country, no less.”
A matched set of Percheron’s don’t come cheap.
😉
WTF is wrong with these peeps. He served for 17 years so why screw things up.
Yes….17 years which brings up a question: Why didn’t he stay for another 3 so he could collect a nice retirement at age 60? My guess is that he got RCP’d (Retention Control Point) out for failing to make E-5.
Granted, E-5 retired pay for a guardsman who only had maybe 3 years of active duty isn’t going to be much, but it’s not nothing either, and he’d get it for the rest of his life. And it also comes with all those other retiree benefits like Tricare, Commissary privileges, Space A travel, etc.
I would think a guy would have to be a pretty big shitbag, or else just dumber than a sack of rocks, to throw away his military (OK, National Guard) career at 17 years. Shit, you can almost see the finish line from there. Spend another 3 years of weekend drills and 2 week annual trainings and grab the brass ring.
Maybe he had delayed enlistment time count? He could have also had some early retirement thing happening. If he did get out and fall short of retirement, I agree that it’s strange.
WHOOPS, I didn’t read the NGB-22 close enough. He did NOT have 17 years of creditable service, he had just over 14, so he had at least 6 years to go before he would be entitled to retirement.
My guess is that he stopped showing up for drills (which is not uncommon for people who have a full time job) and was transferred to an inactive status which is why 3 of his 17 years were not creditable for pay.
It also makes sense that he only had a little over 14 years for pay because IIRC the RCP for E-4 is 15 years. So, yeah, I think he was inactive for a period of time and then was just shown the door when he got to the end of his NG enlistment in 1998.
See, if he’d stayed another three years through September 11, 2001, he’d have qualified for the coveted and oh-so-rare 2nd award of the NDSM and joined the hallowed ranks of the 2x NDSM veterans.
What happens when someone gets put out for molesting a goat or inability to advance to the next higher rank most guys 10- 15 years younger had no problem doing, whichever.
Cocksucker.
Now,, now– you know they don’t put dudes out for that any more! /sarc

Thomas William Cole’s Birth Certificate is a Letter of Apology from a condom manufacturer. Thomas William Cole has no record of ever holding the US Army Rank of Sergeant, Pay grade E5. Thomas William Cole has all the charm and charisma of a burning Orphanage. Thomas William Cole was never listed as being wounded in Operation Urgent Fury. Thomas William Cole Should be wearing a hat saying “Purple HEAD Veteran” because of the obvious lack of oxygen going to his brain.

Again, trying to learn about the Army National Guard. Is that normal for a Soldier who was initially Regular Army then transferred to the Army Reserves/National Guard to retain the rank of SP4/E4 (now SPC) for his entire time in the Army? His DOR for E4 is listed as 29 November 1984. I thought he listed “Spanish” as his Language? Another sad case of someone else embellishing/lying about their Military Awards, their Rank, their Service..all on Social Media, i.e. “LOOK AT ME!!!” Again, IMHO, I suspect these embellishers are hiding something..or have low-self esteem and have created a false alternate reality world, not only to themselves, but also to others (friends, co-wokers, love ones..) Narcisstic Personality Disorder. They only care about themselves and CRAVE attention. Always wearing a LOOK AT ME! type of ballcap or Hat or Stetson or Tshirt as well as Tatoos..or Vests…😉 Wonder if he is also falsely collecting VA Disability or Social Security Disability based on his claim of receiving two (2) Purple Hearts? Dave: We LIKE your idea/recommendation: “Maybe we should start including a “Valor Vulture” Excuse and Warped Explanations Form with each of our cases. It’s not like we could have heard them all yet… or is it? We have had some creative ones over the years. I just want one of the boxes for selection to say, “I embellished my actual Military Service beyond recognition with grabasstic nonsense because I have a puss-filled ego that has gone rancid and turned my life into one giant clusterphuck.” These Dudes/Dudettes will go to their Grave never admitting their lies/embellishments. And once again, ANOTHER Phony who hides behind Religion…He wrote “I STRONGLY BELIEVE GOD”.. “The greatest single cause of atheism in the world today is Christians who acknowledge Jesus with their lips and walk out the door and deny Him by their lifestyle. That is what an unbelieving world simply finds unbelievable.” Someone needs to share with these Embellishers/Liars/Phonies the story of SFC Alwyn Crendall Cashe of Company A, 1st Battalion, 15th Infantry Regiment, 3rd Infantry Division, who gave his life for his Soldiers and our… Read more »
Some of the guard units are different when it comes to rank. There has to be a billet for them to move up. It is not Reserve-wide.
For instance, I knew of an E-5 Supply Sergeant who stayed in that billet for over 18 years and the E-4 behind him could not advance in rank until the E-5 retired and vacated that billet.
I’ve seen it in the NG where someone who had all the qualifications, was a good Soldier and could do the next job up couldn’t get promoted until someone higher lef, retired or died and I saw where shitbirds got promoted ahead of peers JUST BECAUSE they had perfect PT Scores!
ninja,
Daisy Cutter got it.
Varies by state and branch of NG,
but it’s all about the MTOE (manning chart),
and anyone well liked for his work (or his beer gut)
can roost in a slot and rank for well over a decade,
forcing anyone who wants a promotion to seek out transfer to another unit
with the desired MOS/rank slot open in the MTOE.
This can mean choosing to drive 200 miles for weekend drills,
or staying put where you are, promotable, but not getting promoted.
Happens all the time, depending on MOS,
which creates a lot of old Jr. NCOs,
and also a lot of young ETS walkaways.
The Gulf War Veterans in my unit over 50 years old
varied in rank from E-5 to WO-4.
The majority were E-5 to E-6,
valued for their skill and experience,
and unwilling to transfer to a unit across the state
for a stripe.
I speak from personal experience.
Whatta POS quimsquirt:
Before you link any TAH Truthbombs to his FB I gotta tall ya that I received a community strike 2 days ago for a post last May. I disagreed with the strike…haven’t heard back. Anyhoo…I was doing the usual calling out…sticking to facts and linking the TAH findings. I probably linked other source material, but I’m not sure what because I can’t see my actual postings at the moment. The FB police said I was spamming and there were some other words like hateful content and other shit I immediately had no fucks to give about.
I don’t do much else with social media, but if you do and need/want your FB account ya may want to exercise caution on his page or others for now….or just fuck him mercilessly with the truth. Your call.
I think it is right at two posted links of the same exact link that they flag you as a spammer.
Good to know. TY

Good to see you posting here bro.
Yeah, I vote for a good Rogering

Dude, it’s been seemingly decades. Welcome back.
I’m on a 30 day restriction on the book of face right now….
Apparently calling the Chinese lying commie bastards doesn’t fit in with advancing the Facebook bottom line so the algorithm gave me a bit of a time out…
Of course being the miserable bastard I can be at times I have 5 different accounts just to keep fucking with the lying commie bastards whenever I get a chance….
Regarding this guy in the OP, one simple question why?
You did some cool shit, why dump on that?
Why throw away your integrity, honor, and respect for some momentary feel good thank yous?
It makes no sense to me.
VOV,
Doesn’t 30 days in FakeBook Jail
mean you’ve been in and out of the pokey a few times,
like 24 hour FakeBook Time Out Jail?
I got 24 hours for typing out dialogue
from an 80 year old short by The Three Stooges.
Three Stooges photos of an axe or a pick axe to the head,
or a baby sucking on the wrong end of a pistol (babysitting pacifier),
now get automatically deleted,
and repeat attempts get 24 hours of FakeBook Time Out Jail.
Not sure what it takes for 30 days Jail,
but I know several who got it,
and all were sent to FakeBook Jail
over extreme political memes and/or (false) claims.
There are a few words that will get you banned from Facebook… at least put in jail.
A six-letter word that starts with an F and ends with a T and rhymes with “Maggot” is an automatic post removal and warning.
It may be an AI algorithm, however.
To test that theoryu, you could direct it to yourself and say “You know, I’m such a f—-t sometimes.” and see if it gets you banned.
I totally got a 30 day for calling a friend of mine a fag or homo or whatever slur it was. Didn’t matter that we’re military friends. I got 30 days in the Hole.
ChipNASA and Daisy Cutter,
Wow.
Bad hair day for Jeff Spicoli,
especially if he turns up on the Book of Fa(–).
I got one for Trump/Vaccine/Gun related stuff. Like the dude in Fla who was being attached by an older man, who reached into a car window and tried to choke a teenager, who promptly shot him DRT.
I said “if someone reached into my car and tried to hurt me or my family, I’d shoot them in the face too.”
BAM!! 30 day time out.
https://www.usacarry.com/man-shot-teen-grabbing/
They don’t like gunz and also I got a time out for bullying and threatening a friend of mine from the military talking shit like “OK BItch bring it I’ll bitch smack the taste outta your mouth..” etc etc…They didn ‘t care that it was a friend of mine and we were talking shit.
BOOM 30 days .

Hack Stone got his first stretch in the Facebook Correctional Facility for posting a modified quote said by Psycho in the barracks scene of Stripes. That was posted on the Jeremy Dewitte/Metro State Fan page.
Since all y’all are way smarter than me, can one of y’all explain how one spends 17 years as a SP4? I spent 14 months as a SP4 and that was certainly long enough for me. Bein a Sp5 was much better than Sp4.
92G?…Yeah, just look at that gut…
whoops..wrong MOS..but yeah 92G fits anyway.
For those that don’t know, 98G is a Voice Interceptor (i.e. guy who listens to bad guy radio comms.) A foreign language is REQUIRED to hold the 98G MOS.
Prior to Desert Storm there was a lot of pencil whipping and “paper qualification” in the National Guard. However, after the various fiascos of Guard and reserve (but mostly Guard) units that had been listed as “qualified” on paper showing themselves to be spectacularly UN-qualified when put the test, Big Army started requiring Guard and Reserve units to go to the same schools as active duty troops for many MOS’s and 98G is one of those.
So if his record doesn’t show him spending time at Goodfellow AFB in TX, Fort Huachuca AZ, or DLI in Monterey, CA, he did not hold a 98G MOS.
Oh and by the by, with all the other shit posting here…

There is something seriously wrong with folks who claim an award no sane person wants. Have known more than a few guys who have a Purple Heart and have yet to find one who wouldn’t rather not have earned it. Seems pretty much universal. (Not in any way insinuating that these guys could have avoided it, or are in any way cowardly – just that they would have preferred to do their duty without receiving one.)
Claiming an unearned Purple Heart is about the most disgusting thing anyone can do. For an actual veteran to do it? What’s wrong with your head, Thomas Cole? Get it on straight. Now.
I would have thought that if he jumped into Grenada, there would have been a mustard stain somewhere along the line for his jump badge, but, Alas, I’m not seeing it./s
Posted him onto the FY22 Valor Vultures Tote Board.
He is just another reserve component lying embellisher. If these scumbags really wanted to be combat warriors, they would have stayed on active duty. I don’t see why some here call being a weekend warrior “a career.” I was in the reserve components for about six years, I never considered that a career, even when I was doing my weekend warrior duties. I worked as a checker in a grocery store in high school for three years; I didn’t consider that a “career” either. I always thought military service was a career if you were doing it full time, intending to stay on AD for at least 20 years. I was a career RA officer, but I gave up that career to go to law school. My reserve duty was just another part-time job, especially that boring as shit duty with a Psyop company.
Not sure what to call it when you do a part-time job long enough to get a nice retirement income from it, but I do understand what you are saying, and can’t really disagree with your sentiment. I usually just tell folks that I had a full-time job, from I retired and I had a part-time job from which I also retired.
When “career building” in my part-time job, I had to go to the same schools and take the same courses that full-timers did. AND I got to be sent interesting places for days, weeks, or months at a time, away from my full-time job – one for which I also had to go to schools and take courses to get promoted and stay current. In some ways it was like having two full-time jobs. Sometimes it was a bit dicey balancing the two.
Scheduling only became close to insurmountable once, toward the end of both careers when I had the opportunity to work a three-day week at the full-time job. Saturday, Sunday, Monday only. Managed to make it work at both jobs, to everyone’s satisfaction, for several years. Good times.
There may be a point in all this – not all reserve component jobs are equal any more than are all active duty components. We have people die in combat, training accidents, and all that just like the active duty forces. When the enemy has you in their sights, they really don’t care if you have a full-time job somewhere.
Many, many reserve component soldiers saw combat in Iraq and A-stan. Which could be why this big talker got out just a few months after the US went to war in one of those countries and was gearing up to start warring in the other.
Non-Infantry fucks.
Thomas Cole’s bloated belly attests to his involvement in “Operation Urgent Flurry.” However, I doubt if he jumped in. Instead, he probably used drive-through windows.
Surprisingly, his records didn’t make mention of his participation in “Dessert Storm.”
“Right now, he seems a tad busy fixing his Facebook page
to get rid of a lot of the above.”
Ain’t that the MF truth.
It was all visible last evening,
immediately following the MP article.
But not today.
No more daily rant and meme posts.
No more visible FakeBook Friends list.
Only 3 photos remain, and 2 of the 3 are Army parachuting.

Odd how many of these clowns are around kids.

Scary.
Hmmm, what does the city of Madison, Wisconsin have to do with town of Pendleton, Indiana? I’m thinking there’s a little bit of mistaken state geography between the two of them (350 to 400 miles)./smile
Claw,
Pendleton is in MADISON COUNTY.
Claw,
Good catch… that’s NOT Madison County, Indiana.
Someone goofed.
FakeBook search on Cole led me there, to find that post.
The BSM, PH and Combat Wounded Vet status are all still up.

The photo of Thomas William Cole sporting a Special Forces tattoo (with no connection to his military service) kneeling next to his father’s headstone got me doing a little internet sleuthing.
His father’s headstone lists him as a captain with Korean War service. However, his father’s published obituary said he joined the Air Force in November 1954, over a year after the Korean War’s armistice. The obituary said he left the service as a second lieutenant in May 1956, eighteen months later. The obituary makes no mention of other military service, active or reserve.
How can Thomas William Cole’s father’s headstone reflect Korean war service and the rank of a captain? Did the obituary omit additional military service? Or, does the funeral director get the service information from the family? Does the military or Veteran’s Administration verify the information for gravestones?
Any explanations?
https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/205271956/edwain-l.-cole
“Uh Oh….Chongo!!”
Ouch. Genetic and/or this clown thinks everyone’s service should be ‘embellished’?
Mustang Major,
It’s all here.
A lot of leeway for headstone eligibility.
Includes Guard and Reserve eligibility.
Highest career rank can be put on the stone.
Overseas / war service not required.
https://www.va.gov/burials-memorials/memorial-items/headstones-markers-medallions/
Looks like the verification process in on the “loose” side.
I am willing to bet with his “look at me” mentality he had them put that on the gravestone just so he could pose with it for the historical society. Dad’s Obit makes sense, the marker doesn’t. There is no proof that dad was ever a SV idiot.
I imagine All-Points Logistics held the contract at that time.
Late to the “party” here, but his dad’s tombstone entry appears to be perfectly legit. For VA purposes, Federal law defines service during the “Korean Conflict” as beginning 27 June 1950 and ending 31 January 1955 (yes, 1955). See 38 USC 101(9), available online at
https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/38/101
As a hardware and information tech with similar qual’s, I’ve rubbed elbows with a LOT of 98G’s. Got to say that in my estimation, they are truly some of America’s most talented Warriors.
For Cole to lay claim to this title(along with Purple Hearts-plural, etc), counts him as some of lowest of the low. Yup. Definitely a full-on, full-metal cocksucker.. Fuck you Thomas Cole, fuck you very much.
“Calling Claw. Please pick up the white courtesy phone.”
“We need the nomenclature and a statement of charges for a T11R Reserve Parachute that apparently SPC Thomas William Cole has absconded with from the Army and hiding under his blue civilian t-shirt”.
82nd Airborne….. the Almost Airborne, “jumping junkies” brotherhood weep.
(former Alpha Company, 2/325 Inf soldier (Death From Above)-“White Falcons”)
Skyjumper, Okay, here’s the skinny:
NSN 1670-01-535-2248 T11R Reserve Parachute
However, a Statement of Charge is not the appropriate form for recouping the loss to the government. It will have to be on a Report of Survey (or the FLIPPLE/DIPPLE Form as it is now called in this century) as the historical unit price is $3,241.04 to $5,401.73 and exceeds the monthly base pay of a SPC E4./smile
When it comes time to pay it back he is going to have to gut it out until it is paid back.
So he was one (1) of the two (2) guys from the 82nd that jumped into Granada with the RANGERS?
As has been pointed out already, only 2 members of the 82d made the Combat Jump into Grenada. Both were Engineers. Of those wounded, one was a squad leader in my Platoon when we arrived at Bragg in 84.
This guy is just another in a long line of scumbags, who could not be satisfied with what they did.
I did 12 years, and missed every combat from 1983 to 1995. Not for a lack of trying, but it is what it is.
I am proud of what I did accomplish as an inflight missile repairman, with secondary messkit repair.
You have it all wrong… Tommy Boy was injured during “Operation Fisting Fury” over at Brucie’s Bath House (entrance in the rear). Rumor is that he broke his taint twice during that weekends “events”…
I have NO Doubt, that Thomas was part of close quarters operations, hand to gland combat, in Operation, Urgent Furry. I also understand his position was Base Commander, ifyougetmydriftandIthinkyoudo
Once again we have a man whose military record was perfectly acceptable, honorable, and something to be proud of, who then decides that he just had to be the guy who did just a bit more. The guy who almost died for his country, rather than pushed papers around. The guy who jumped out of planes in the dangerous profession of the paratrooper, rather than cutting vegetables with the scary, sharp knives of the Company Cook.
I was a Supply Administration and Operations Man. My decoration was a Rifle Sharpshooters Badge. I was a Marine. I’m proud of that enough.
He needs to tag up with The Round Ranger. They can go skydiving, and afterwards blow the child support money Mrs. Round Ranger gets for her kids on beer and wings at Hooters.
Has anyone checked on The Round Ranger lately to see what he is up to? Hack will put $10 on him being up to 350 pounds.
Matthew Beck grew up.
Speaking of him, I’ve been going to the same barbershop now for 16 years in Rigby and still haven’t seen him.
It would be great to talk with him about that Army Achievement Medal tattoo he has./smile
It’s Rigby, how many barbershops can there be?
Just went on Al Gore’s Amazing Internet to see what William Derek Church has been up to, and it seems that he will be celebrating his 45th birthday tomorrow, October 30. Do you suppose he will spend the day skydiving with Bill Chamberlain, the guy who saved his life (or did Round Ranger save Chamberlain’s life)?
I live in the same grid square of his last known address. No sightings of him or his truck.
PS: but I have not gone to Hooters to surveil. Mrs SJ won’t let me.
Well, See, you gotta do what I do. Every time I want to go to Hooters to check on the livestock, I just post a fake time on the calendar about a chiropractors appointment/getting a haircut/going to the bank to get my $100.00 a month Social Security allowance. etc. When I go out the door, Mrs. Claw just says “See you when you get back.” I don’t have a smart phone so she can’t track my whereabouts and so, I’ve got about three hours of doing whatever in the Hell I want to do./smile
Scooby knows what you are up to. The Hooter gals in your AO wear parkas.
Yeah, they should. After the Hooters in Boise closed in 2013, the nearest one to my AO now is in Fargo, ND./s

[Pendleton Police Department]
I would caution any Veteran from believing hearsay information from a website
without knowing the full truth of a persons service to our nation.
[commenter reply]
Pendleton Police Department – Good morning.
Both of these websites linked above have well over a decade of experience in receiving reports of suspected military embellishers, liars, phonies, and Stolen Valor violators.
These well respected national websites perform the due diligence of requesting FOIA redacted military service records from the US Gov’t, and then interpreting what is received, and determining the truth and validity (or the false and impossibility) of the claims and uniform items worn.
MOST reports investigated turn out to corroborate the veteran,
or his embellishments and lies are so small,
that NO article is published.
In this case, the lies and fakery are large.
If you believe Tom Cole at his word,
simply ask him for physical PROOF of his 2 Purple Hearts (and other claims).
Good luck.

It appears that Thomas Cole has made contact with the Pendleton PD,

Thanks.
Holy crap.
Pendleton PD appears to have deleted the comments,
or blocked the commenter.
Signed off, I could see them minutes ago,
and then watched them disappear.
That’s really rotten,
and (I believe) illegal, on a public PD FaceBook page.
It was verbatim as above, as I copied and pasted what I saw.
If that’s the Pendleton PD position,
to be offered an open opportunity to reply, refute, and defend,
and instead resort to wiping off the convo…..
It may be evident that the Pendleton PD
KNOWS THE TRUTH about their good buddy
Phony Combat Wounded Phony Purple Hearts.
Ugh.
Claw,
Just like past police departments in Elko & Carlin, Nevada
and other places around the USA that we’ve seen.
Living in a cave, a cocoon, an oasis.
“Don’t trust those outsiders.”
“Don’t trust those websites.”
Claw, I just sent a PM to the commenter,
asking if he can still he his own comments (view blocked)
or if the comments went poof and vanished (deleted).
Either way… poor behavior by a police department.
Yep, it’s a canine and equine exhibition all the way around if the “author” at the Pendleton PD is deleting/blocking comments./s
Yep, I got nuttin’ when I went there.
It’s a public social media website. It’s usually against the law (can’t cite it here but it’s been brought up before) of an official agency to edit their public records and that includes Book of Fakes.
Claw,
UPDATE –
The comments are VISIBLE again.
Another has commented, as a reply comment, to the PD,
with advice for the PD on getting records,
and identifying the Indiana Stole Valor law/code.
New comment…
(paste)
[commenter reply]
Pendleton Police Department – This is good advice and we would encourage people – as well as you – to obtain evidence of Mr. Cole’s military service DIRECTLY by contacting the US Army Human Resource Command and requesting his records.
I am confident that once you see for yourself you can remove the words about having to do with hearsay.
I would further point out that you have an OBLIGATION to get to the ground truth if you cannot rely on “hearsay” for evidence –
so you have a clean chain of custody.
The Indiana Code Title 35: IC 35-43-5-22 Stolen valor fraud
Sec. 22. A person who, with the intent to obtain money, property, or another benefit, knowingly or intentionally:
(3) fraudulently represents himself or herself to be a recipient of the:
(F) Purple Heart;
(G) Combat Infantryman Badge;
(H) Combat Action Badge;
commits stolen valor, a Class A misdemeanor.
Although your post seemingly takes a stance that advocates fairness, my suspicion is that you will NOT follow up and do your job and the purpose of your post was to cause a bit of smokescreen, throw doubt on the situation so that you can justify DOING NOTHING under the guise of ‘hearsay.”
If you get a phone call and someone says that a robbery is in progress do you then say “be careful about accusations by an anonymous caller until you know the ground truth.”
Please do the right thing and follow up and we’ll patiently wait right here until your inquiry comes back from the US Army.
Involves a simple letter – not multiple investigators and endless hours. Here’s your pointer:

The issue I see with this is if the PPD believes that the documents presented were “hearsay” then because the article stated that they came from the U.S. Army then this would involve a case of forgery of documents for the purpose of doxing one of Pendleton’s citizens.
That is – IF the documents are proven to be fake.
The PPD merely has to prove that the documents are authentic to get to the “full truth of a person’s service” as they call it.
Either way, a potential crime has been committed and it is up to the PPD to find out which way it swings. Question is – will they care enough to take action or will it take, say, a letter to the Office of the Attorney General for the State of Indiana?
tshe,
Bingo.
And, if Thomas Cole presents
alleged proof
of Bronze Star and Purple Heart(s),
this will swing the way of Clyde (Texas) PD officer Leroy Foley.

Probably what is most appropriate is the District Attorney what has jurisdiction with the PPD. Since the DA is not an investigative body but can pass it over to someone that can investigate, they may consider the Sheriff vs. the PPD.
tshe,
That varies by state,
and then by county.
Depends on Indiana’s setup,
which could include DA oversight of county criminal investigations, much like PA.
For example, county sheriffs are out of the prosecution loop in PA.
Unless it’s now a cover up and hush hush,
there should be more to this, and soon, in Pendleton, Indiana.
UPDATE – Thomas Cole RESPONDS…..
Cole can see ALL the comments on the Pendleton Police Department page
on the Book of the Fake.
Cole clicked “Angry” on 1 of them, and then
Cole clicked “Love” on the PPD “hearsay” comment.
So, he knows what’s going on there on the Book of the Fake,
and he knows what’s going on here (at MP & VG).

Thomas Cole found the time to click “HaHa”
on another comment on the Pendleton Police Department page
on the Book of the Fake (link above).

I JUST HAD to say it again, Google® Hits™ and all: Thomas William Cole has NO Official Record of ever having been part of Operation Urgent Fury.

To Thomas Cole:
Since you are now seeing this website and article about you,
I suggest some advice for you (as a website fan)…
IF you wish to dispute or refute anything
the MP and/or VG websites have published about you,
you are most welcome and encouraged to
(as others have done before you)
1 – State your case here in this page blog, and/or
2 – Email your own documents of proof to MP and/or VG.
Seems he’s deleted his LinkedIn profile where he claimed to have been a sniper instructor. hahaha
Yeah.
He deleted that shit with an Urgent Fury.
He has a sockpuppet on the MP FB page claiming Cole has a 215 with all the stuff missing from his 214. Said sockpuppet also claims some of Cole’s stuff is classified, and he got shot in El Salvador working Black Ops.
It always amuses me how it becomes classified once they’re called out, but until then it’s not too classified to post to various social media platforms.
Said Sockpuppet also says that Cole went to OCS.
So now, he’s approaching Officer Posing territory and when that goes down, this page should really light up.
Correction: What the Sockpuppet actually said was:
“The DD215 also show his Officer School Training.”
Sandman and Claw,
NOT a sockpuppet. TH on FB is real.
His Book of the Fake cover photo has 11 clicks from 5 years ago…
…including his WIFE
(who oddly lists living a different city and state).
MD61, Yes, TH on FB is considered and will be called/named a Sockpuppet by the commenters of TAH/MP regardless of whether he is a for real person or just a made-up persona by the Valor Vulture in question. Anytime anybody tries to obscure the truth/blow smoke up our asses by clouding the objective, they will have the Sockpuppet moniker applied to them./smile
Sockpuppet is just the name we’ll call them by as a catch-all phrase (even though they may not fit the Wikipedia description of a Sockpuppet) for those who chose to defend a liar.
Claw,
OK.
My experience on the Book of the Fake,
is that the word “sockpuppet”
is reserved for fake/phony accounts,
either pretending to BE the person,
or pretending to be a friend speaking on behalf of the person.
You know, like Shari Lewis with her hand up Lamb Chop’s ass.
I felt (and still do),
that it is important to differentiate,
that Tom Cole’s “phony defender” TH is a real person,
and not a Lamb Chop with someone’s hand up his ass.
Wait, alleging OCS? He’s from Indiana?
*Strikes match*
Claw,
To be fair,
National Guard OCS and part time weekender 2LT is certainly a possibility.
PAARNG had these types of OCS grads,
and some never even got to pin on 2LT,
as no gaining unit would take them.
(I personally know of 2.
They remained enlisted until they separated later.)
That said, Indiana NG doesn’t storm foreign beaches on its own.
Any ACTIVE DUTY as an LT would turn up under FOIA.
And of course, we already know the answer to that.
We shall see… what he/they produce. And soon.
Sandman,
Wow.

Start your stopwatch & mark your calendar,
for the arrival of Thomas Cole’s DD Form DD-215.
You know, the DD-215 with 2 Purple Hearts,
and apparently much, much more.
Citizens of Pendleton, Indiana, don’t let us down.
Veterans around the USA want to see this, and see the truth.
I’m not putting much faith in ever seeing that DD215. After all, we were promised a 1st SEAC Sockpuppet Report back on 17 Jan 2016 and was told that Alaska Bob’s DD214 was in the mail on 23 Sep 2019, but you know what?
Haven’t seen hide nor hair of either document yet, so don’t hold your breath till Coles’ DD215 shows up./smile
Claw,
I have some faith.
Unlike Alaska Bob Glaves (Jr.) or (deceased) Les Brown,
OTHERS have indeed ponied up the forms, either after prompting by others, or unprompted.
To his credit, Vietnam Veteran Mr. Bob Walker (PA)
brought out his DD-214 IN PERSON,
but then claimed confusion when shown that
most of his medals were good,
but his shadow box Silver Star & Navy Cross were unearned BS,
and his oak leaves and stars were off.
Then again, others around him ALSO wanted to get to the truth.
Mr. Bob’s new excuse of “Missouri Fire” got him this Page 2.
We shall see if the “others” in Pendleton, Indiana
have a similar interest in getting to the truth.
You know, since Thomas Cole,
who is able to clickety click on the Book of the Fake,
is NOT (yet) speaking up for himself,
but rather having others do it for him.
Big difference between Mr. Bob and Thomas Cole….
Mr. Bob actually has the Bronze Star & Purple Hearts.
He truly was Rambo for 1 day. And then wounded again.
[Robert “Mr. Bob” Walker – Official Records
| December 9, 2020]
https://valorguardians.com/blog/?p=108109
Talk about “grasping at straws”.
This . . . individual appears to have joined the military in early 1983 – or nearly a decade after the 1973 NPRC records repository fire. His records were not affected by that fire.
https://valorguardians.com/blog/?p=39667
Hondo,
NOT Thomas Cole.
That was Bronze Star Purple Heart Vietnam Veteran
Mr. Bob Walker, the retired elementary school janitor,
who pulled “Missouri Fire” out of his ass,
when his shadow box Navy Cross and Silver Star
were shown to be bullshit.
Thomas Cole never mentioned the fire
(as far as I know).
But Thomas Cole mentions Bronze Star.
And he mentions AND WEARS Purple Heart(s),
which are NOT on his FOIA records,
ALL OVER his caps, and on his license plate.
It’s now Monday…..
The Pendleton Police are on it.
And Thomas Cole’s gots a lotsa ‘splain’ to do
about why he’s sporting the Purple Heart license plate.
And Purple Heart Combat Wounded Veteran cap.
But he has proof of both, somewhere, right??
Yeah, you’re right. Missed the change in person you were talking about.
Still, same analysis holds. There’s virtually zero chance Walker’s records were affected by the 1973 fire, and the NPRC’s position is that no Navy records were. The fire didn’t damage the portion of the building holding Navy records. Plus, the FOIA about Walker in the previous article you linked proves that NPRC held his records as of a year ago.
FWIW: Cole best hope he can come up with valid documentation for his PH. Obtaining a PH plate under false pretenses appears to be a Class C misdemeanor in Indiana. According to one source, the fine is relatively small ($500), but it also can result in 60 days in jail.
https://law.justia.com/codes/indiana/2017/title-9/article-18.5/chapter-6/section-9-18.5-6-1/
https://www.criminaldefenselawyer.com/resources/indiana-misdemeanor-crimes-class-and-sentences.htm
I’d guess that renewing a knowingly false PH plate would constitute a new offense each time the plate was renewed (lawyer commenters, please correct me if I’m wrong here). If that’s the case, there shouldn’t be any statute of limitations issues.
Hondo,
Good catch.
Bingo.
Hondo,
Worse.
In Indiana, the Purple Heart plate requires
the completion and sign off on a VA Form.
So it’s potential double trouble

Fittingly, Neener’s Shit Pot Burner ribbon is
yellow/brown/yellow/brown/yellow.
https://www.military-certificates.com/CED-Shit-Burner.htm
I just saw that. Maybe there’s a satire angle he’s taking with this. There’s also “Shit Hole Country Service Medal” that didn’t used to be on his webpage as well.
Oh well, there’s always going to be some asshole supplying this kinda shit cause there’s always some dickhead that will give them money for it.
Me, I have my legit citations hanging in my “office” but not too much, retirement stuff, and if it were lost in say, a meteor impact, then so be it. I’d probably not try to replace it.

Thomas Cole,
It’s time to act, and act wisely.
Consult with your friends, and your Police Department.
If you leave a ‘review’ on the Pendleton PD FB page, they can not remove it unless they turn off the review feature in FB.,,,,just saying
Sandman,
Good news,
the Pendleton PD page on the Book of the Fake
now has 16 comments,
and the PPD has NOT been removing nor deleting any comments,
not from others, and not their own 1 shaky comment.
It’s all (still) there.

Pendleton Police Department
I would caution any Veteran from believing hearsay information from a website without knowing the full truth of a persons service to our nation.
(end paste)
So, as of now, it’s unnecessary
to hit the PPD with any (bad) reviews
based on the current status of the Thomas Cole circus.
Time will (soon) tell,
if the sufficiently informed PPD
has acted in the best interest of the town of Pendleton.
Or not.
OK, I just looked at that NGB22 again and a couple of things jumped out:
First of all, he did attend a Sigint Intercept course for 8 weeks. Now, I don’t know how long the full 98G course was, but I’m pretty sure it was a hell of a lot longer than 8 weeks, especially when you consider that 98G was one of the MOS’s that requires a language in order to be fully MOSQ’d. So I see the 8 week Sigint course but not the language.
It’s possible he was actually a 98H, 98J or 98K. 98H was Morse Code intercecptor, 98J was non-communications intercept (radar or telemetry interception) and 98K was non-voice communications intercept (printers or teletype intercept.) 98K almost all worked at high level strategic MI units like the Field Stations in Augsburg Germany, Kunia (HI), Korea (FSK Camp Humphreys), Key West, etc.
It’s also possible that he was a 98C, Traffic Analyst. The 98C is a generic analyst in the SIGINT field and while 98C’s CAN have a language, it is not a requirement to hold the MOS.
If Cole held a 98-series MOS in the 82nd, the only places he could have been assigned were to the 313th MI Battalion or Division Headquarters (G2.) There are no other 98-series MOS slots in a combat division.
Interesting that Block 12 shows he completed the course but there is no Military Intelligence (96, 97 or 98 series MOS) listed.
HOWEVER – See my second comment:
Second: That NGB22 is a soup sandwich but in my experience, that’s not uncommon. When I retired from the NG in 2005, the awards section of my NGB22 was jacked up even though I literally printed out a list of all my awards and attached my documentation to them – the clerk STILL screwed it up.
What we need to see is a DD-214. The DD-214 will show if he was ever assigned a 98-series MOS.
My understanding is that he is contact with Forgin’ Frank Visconi and they are getting the documentation prepared with Urgent Fury.
And a little recreational reading for those FNG’s who may not be familiar with the legendary Forgin’ Frank Visconi….
https://caselaw.findlaw.com/mo-court-of-appeals/1609114.html
More like anal fury…
Martinjmper –
98G MOS had two components – the basic language training at DLI and a technical component taught at GAFB. The language part lasted from 20 to 50+ weeks depending on the language. Graduation from language training at DLI got you an “L” (for linguist) tacked to your MOS and an two letter identifier for the language – so 98C1LAP, for example.
The soldier then had to attend and graduate the tech training at GAFB to be assigned the “G”. Tech training also varied in length depending on the language, but usually somewhere from 6 to 16 weeks.
The DD214 for a 98G should show an entry for language school at DLI and a second entry for AIT at GAFB.
Meant to address the SIGINT course entry.
Several intelligence schools produced field exportable training for specific MI related equipment or training refreshers that might have been taught to soldiers assigned to specialized units at the 313th MI Bn.
None of them would have awarded an MOS, maybe an ASI.
OK, I was an all-source guy so I couldn’t remember if the language was first or the technical part of the course at GAFB. Thanks for clearing that up.
Do you recall how long the GAFB portion was? 8 weeks sounds awfully short. As a 96B my AIT was 14 weeks (in 1987) and we didn’t really have to learn how to operate any kind of equipment.
As I said, that NGB22 is ate up, we need to see the DD-214 from his last AD period.
Common Block for 98G was 3 weeks followed by language specific which could last an additional 6 to 16 weeks. I taught 98G back in the late 70s to mid 80s off and on and am not aware of any other way to get a 98G during that time frame.
Getting interesting now. Cole has lawered up according to his Sockpuppet.
Claw,
Advice to ALL…. BOOKMARK THIS PAGE.
EMAILS and FaceBook PMs are flying all around now…
MORE is about to happen.
Unsure if it will be today (it’s already Friday afternoon),
or if new developments happen during the weekend.
I hate to keep secrets here…
But until this comes through…
I should not betray the confidence of others (in email or FaceBook PM).
The best hint I can drop now…
is that VG has a new friend…. in Pendleton, Indiana.

Thomas Cole,

Thomas Cole has probably calculated that he would be held accountable for any direct statement he makes on all of this so is going with the “Ha Ha” emoji to be safe.
If it were me and my claims were legit, I’d be out front defending myself.
From HERO to ZERO. What an absolute coward.
bmorgan,
Bingo.
Of course.
I’m not often challenged or confronted about my service,
but for years,
I keep JPG files of my DD-214 (whole and redacted)
and a few choice (scanned) Gulf War photos
handy on my PC, my laptop, and a backup USB drive.
So easy to do.
So easy to provide.
bmorgan,
Worse, his decision to
delete/hide/privatize his Book of the Fake,
and then DELETE his BlinkedIn,
are exactly what exposed phonies have been doing.
For years.
We fans (of MP and VG) know all this,
but not all new website visitors
(from Pendleton and other towns with a newly exposed phony)
are aware.
As you suggested,
the honest and honorable veteran
would NOT be hiding, NOR deleting.
This does not end well for Thomas Cole.
But Thomas Cole has a short amount of time
to decide how it ends,
before others decide the end for him.
Could be a generational thing, but who are these “fans” you keep referring to? Surely not those of us well out of our teens who could not care less about clicks and such. Can’t help picture a bunch of crazed, fanatical teeny boppers hanging ’round the super stars of TAH hoping for an autograph, or something.
Not an altogether unpleasant mental image, but somewhat disconcerting. 🙂
OWB,
Well, you, for starters.
Readers, followers, contributors, bloggers, fans.
Definitions vary,
but anyone here reading the articles on phonies,
1 after another,
commenting, joking, asking questions,
following the drama,
and participating in the takedown of a phony,
is a FAN of this website.
That’s you, me, and many others here.
Take it as a compliment, mature praise.
Guess all I really want to know is was that an intentional insult? If not, no harm, no foul. If so, ya gotta know that it will take more than that to run me off. And it’s not because I am a “fan.” It’s because I still have a few long time friends hanging out here, and it’s one of the few places we can still go to find out about the latest posers.
OWB,
Of course not.
In fact, there’s only 1 person on VG
that I’ve ever insulted,
and it was certainly intentional.
He tried to throw it back at me,
but he failed.
Indiana Flashback…
Fort Wayne, Indiana, 100 miles away from Pendleton
Mike Rick – Phony POW.
Reality – Vietnam Veteran, Bronze Star, Purple Heart (x1).
Fantasy (LIES) – POW, Cambodia escape survival story, Purple Heart (x4).
Can’t help thinking similar stories have been told around Pendleton, Indiana, from a guy sporting a lot of purple.
[Mike Rick – Phony POW, Four Purple Hearts?
| June 15, 2021]
https://valorguardians.com/blog/?p=114585
Notice,
that Mike Rick actually earned a Bronze Star and 1 Purple Heart.
But he just had to try to make himself into quadruple Rambo.
On TV.
On Memorial Day (2021).
WEEKEND UPDATE –
Boots on the ground in Pendleton, Indiana
have confirmed that
Thomas Cole drives around with a
PURPLE HEART LICENSE PLATE.
This just got bigger,
considering what is takes to get a Purple Heart license plate.
Forms.
Proof.
Signatures.
The possibility of FRAUD against a state’s motor vehicle bureau,
and (more so) the possibility of fraud against the VA itself,
has now become a very real possibility.
Not saying here that it’s a clear case of fraud.
But this is how other frauds around the USA have been uncovered.
For someone with the arrogance
to laugh at initial comments on his own Book of the Fake,
and recently clicked “HaHa” on the Pendleton Police Department page,
this is looking more and more serious for Thomas Cole.
Kudos to the citizens of Pendleton, Indiana
who are stepping up and working to get to the truth
about the claims, caps, tattoo, and license plate of Thomas Cole.
UPDATE FOLLOWUP – I just went to the Fu of Google,
and I found the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles website.
Oh boy, this just got worse.
Much worse.
VA worse.
From the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles page.

Eligibility
To purchase the Purple Heart plate,
the Indiana Department of Veterans Affairs (IDOVA) must complete
State Form 32584 to certify your eligibility for the plate.
You must submit the certification form to any BMV license branch
or at full and partial service providers.
You may request the Purple Heart Disability plate at any BMV license branch if you:
1. Provide State Form 32584 completed by IDOVA
(Certification of Eligibility for Veteran License Plates).
2. Have a permanent disability placard or plate issued in your name
or you may submit State Form 42070
(Application for Disability License Plate or Parking Placard)
completed by a health care provider
certifying that you have a permanent disability.
(end paste)
Conclusion – Indiana BMV does not verify on its own
when it approves the Purple Heart license plate,
but goes on verification by the VA, using a VA form.
IMHO – Double trouble,
with the state of Indiana, and (now) the VA.

Oh, that’s fraud, not just shit talking or social media shit.
That fucking with government shit, and that, my friends can land one in the hoosegow.
Am I not right??
I do believe we’ve seen that kinda thing before.

ChipNASA,
This Phony Navy SEAL was recently sentenced
for conning the VA in Pennsylvania.
It (sadly) shows that the VA does a terribly POOR job
at verifying claims, docs, and service records.

All told, Meleski scored more than $300,000 in VA healthcare benefits due to his fakery, and even jumped the eligibility line ahead of real veterans in need, the attorney’s office said in a release announcing the sentence.
“In reality, Meleski never served one day
in the United States military,” the release states.

Richard Meleski, 60, pleaded guilty in July 2020
to one count of healthcare fraud, two counts of mail fraud, one count of stolen valor and two counts of fraudulent military papers,
according to the attorney’s office.

Roh-Dog,
Perhaps Thomas Cole could go give a motivational talk
at the local prison, errr, correctional facility.
They’d love to know the REAL story (in advance).

A Proud Infidel@,
Let’s see if Thomas Cole can self-correct,
without the need
(or the additional sucking of the taxpayer)
of a correctional facility.

And he can see no reasons
‘Cause there are no reasons
What reason do you need to be shown?

3 different folks in Pendleton, Indiana now have
3 different destinations to send the Thomas Cole papers.
It’s like Three Stooges as Civil War spies.
“Duck. Dodge. Hyde!”
And….
It’s like a military themed episode of “To Tell The Truth.”
Will the REAL Thomas William Cole, please stand up??

To Thomas Cole…
Check your FaceBook PMs (under “Message Requests”).
I was shown the very nice and reasonable offer you received this morning.
I suggest you accept the offer,
follow the advice and directions, and provide what is requested.
You’ll get a fair and decent independent review
of everything you provide.
From what I was shown,

Let him know.
Let us know.
Thank you.
