Man harasses and cyberstalks main recruiter

| December 29, 2021

Braxton Louis Danley hoped to join the Army. He entered the recruiting office for a pre-test to see how he would do in the ASVAB. He failed the test. He wanted to retake the test. The recruiters would not let him retake the test unless he properly prepared/studied first. Danley apparently did not want to take that recommendation. This led to a sequence of events that would see Danley cyberstalking/harassing the main recruiter.

From the Military Times:

What followed were years of Danley harassing and cyberstalking his main recruiter, identified in court documents as a female with the initials “J.J.”

“I remember every thing you pricks done to me so time to settle the score,” the Luray, Virginia, man wrote in a May 14, 2018 email to J.J.’s official Army email address, court documents show. The message was the first of many threatening text messages, emails and phone calls.

Danley even called the recruiting station later that day and told a different recruiter that the Army needed to arrest him (Danley) because he was angry.

Following the threatening email and phone call, J.J. contacted local law enforcement, which, on May 18, signed a No Trespass Notice barring Danley from the Harrisonburg recruiting station.

This only angered Danley more, court documents allege.

Two weeks later, on June 1, Danley sent a text message to J.J.’s official cell phone, saying, “so that’s how it is now you f*ck my goddamn record up. Now I can’t get a job anywhere ok you want to play.”

According to court documents, the recruiter did not in fact, want to play. She chose not to respond, and following a barrage of text messages from Danley, was issued a new official phone.

Nine days later, Danley used one of his parents’ Facebook accounts to send her more messages.

“Hey it Brax,” the first of three messages sent on July 10, 2018, read.

“Can’t under stand why you f*cked me over in that test guess cause I look like a drugy right ?… I try to fix my life and you f*cked it now im hunted by your people f*ck you none of you will walk away if you serve papers on me…a fight is here now face me.”

Well, what a special little, entitled snowflake we have here. Wanna make book that he got his way as a kid? Bet he finds plenty of people that want to “play” when he checks back into the Gray Bar Hotel.

Be all you can be but if you can’t pass the test for something
then be something that you can pass the test for.
Pretty simple logic.

Somebody doesn’t want to muck out the stalls.

AW1Ed

Army still trying that breeding mule program?

There are only two actual military service branches- the Army and the Navy. Air Force is a corporation, and the Marines are a cult.

Hondo

Just “don’t talk to (us) about Naval tradition”, AW1Ed. Cause we all know that that is – though I’ll be nice and not spell it out here. (smile)

AW1Ed

Not to start a quote flame war; there are several versions of Churchill’s famous quip. He supposedly called British naval tradition “…nothing but “rum, sodomy, and the lash.”

British tradition, and he’d know being First Lord of the Admiralty and all.

He didn’t name a British naval vessel after Harvey Milk, either, so there’s that.

AW1Ed,
Someone said “Harvey”?
Ralph Kramden has some thoughts about that name, too.

When was your 1st carrier take off/landing?

Were you not a back seater for the dirigible launches and recoveries? 🙂

Nothing wrong mucking out the stalls/barns, I grew up doing that.

Hell, if the Army can get people to pass the test enough to become infantry, and he can’t even pass to THAT level, WTF!?

Stop me if you’ve heard this one.

The 4 branches of service are being interviewed.

They ask the same question to all 4 branches.

Navy guy says he would kill it.

Army guy says he would crush it.

Marine guy says he would kill it, crus b it and use its stinger as a tooth pick.

Air Force guy says he would call down to the front desk and ask why there was a tent in his room.

Odie

Darn. Screwed up my own joke. The question was, if you found a scorpion in your tent, what would you do.

Or, an oldie but goodie:

Infantryman (in rain): This sucks.

SF dude (eating snake in rain): I wish this would suck more.

Airman (cable TV’s out): This sucks!

And there’s a color comic for this I had a copy of (not my comic) way back in 1985 in the Freight office in TMO at Kadena.

I have been reading at two of his FAKEbook pages. In one comment, he mentions going back to prison. H’mmmm.

Hondo

Yep. He received a 12-mo sentence in 2017 or 2018 for violating a protective order the recruiter had obtained against him. The most recent trial was for actions after he’d been released from his previous stay at Crossbar Hotel.

He fucketh himself very well.

My, My, My

Wonder if the judge, at sentencing in Feb, will give him a choice of either joining the Navy or go to jail.

HMCS(FMF) ret

I think his options will be limited to being the prison bride to:

1. Bubba
2. Thor
3. Julio
4. Mr. “Tiny”

rgr769

Yes, he is going to the big boyz’ PITA prison, where he will be having that “who gonna be da wife” discussion with his cellie.

That recruiter should send him a cell-block sized “I Can’t Believe It’s Not K-Y.”

Ret_25X

I wonder who his back fill (see what I did there?) will be a Brucie’s Bath House (entrance in rear)?

rgr769

He will be going to the federal pound. And will have to serve at least 75% of his sentence. So, he will have several years to be “served” at the BTJT deli.

Hack Stone

Quite a few Rocket Surgeons who just couldn’t pass the minimum ASVAB score to enlist back when Hack was on Recruiting Duty. One particular individual was a Native American girl in her late twenties with a kid and was more than a few pounds over her height/weight standard, and that is being kind. Hack gave her the 20 minute mini ASVAB. At that time, those who identified as female had a minimum AFQT Score Of 50, since they could not go into combat arms occ field. She never could master that test, which hadn’t changed since the 1960’s. (Mick Jagger is a man used to having doors opened for him…) She eventually got a degree in Elementary Education from the local college. Navy Recruiter signed her up for the official ASVAB. Looked at her scores, and she barely qualified (Intelligence wise) for infantry.

Sez something about the education system, don’t it?

Hack Stone is scratching his brain housing group when politicians on The Left say that teachers know more than the parents and you should trust what they present in the classroom. Look at the caliber of teachers in the inner city schools. If they were any good, such as increasing student scores and holding students to a standard, they would be purged from the school for promoting racism.

That logic lost all credibility with me when I had a TEACHER of one of my high schools interested in going into the USMC reserve. I put him on the EST (Enlisted Screening Test). The dude….a COLLEGE GRADUATE….got a TWELVE.

And THIS is who politicians/left want ‘teaching’ my kids? No thanks

When I took the ASVAB I went with one other kid. He seemed nice and he really wanted to serve. Recruiter said this was his third attempt. I flew through and got a good score. Got done early enough, the recruiter and I had a coffee in the cantine. Kid didn’t make it and he asked me what my score was and I just couldn’t tell him it was 90-whatever.

A Proud Infidel®™

I took it with t cheap Tequila hangover and passed with flying colors, I can’t understand why some actually flunk it!

Jay

I was 16 when I took the ASVAB. There was about 50 of us in the room: I was the first one done. Administrator asked if I was SURE I didn’t want to go back through and double check my answers….I was like, “No…im good.” Wound up getting a 92.

Mason

I’ve always been a fast test taker. When I took my state licensing exam, a bunch of us who’d gone to school together had said we’d go out for a drink afterwards.

I take the test and sat in the lobby for another hour. Of the 200 or so people taking the test, nobody else had come out yet, so I left.

NHSparky

Be lying if I said we didn’t run into a few of those, but dayum!

And yeah, if you couldn’t cut the practice test, you wouldn’t make it at MEPS. Our rule of thumb was they had to cut at least 35-36 on practice in order to cut 31 on actual ASVAB.

Jay

Makes sense. Then you have those EST’er Bunnies who hope from one office to the other taking the practice test and wind up acing it….just to get a 7 on the actual ASVAB.

SFC D

I thought you got a 10 just for putting your name in the right box.

NHSparky

Don’t laugh. I was Company Yeoman in boot camp so I saw every recruit’s “hard cards”, which included ASVAB and line scores.

Mind you, this is in the mid-80’s, when Cat IV waivers were not only approved but almost common.

I saw 4 guys under 20. Lowest score in our company cut an 11.

Yes. 11. In standard test/IQ terms, that meant he had an IQ in low 70’s.

Anonymous

Was in Germany with a guy who took the ASVAB six times to qualify, meaning he got luck on the last one: At a +/-6 points’ margin of error, that’s a 79 GT otherwise.

He was a focused, hard-charging troop; a good dude who made the most of what God gave him. Stuff would fall off his proverbial plate because he didn’t have the capacity sometimes (“Hey, don’t forget your rifle!”… not 11B, it wasn’t his primary weapon).

Instead of sending him to prison ($$$$), throw him down a deep hole in the nearby Caverns of Luray. Some spelunker may find him……eventually.

I used to love when kids/parents threatened me over the phone when I was on recruiting duty.

“Sir, my address is XXXX Rd, XXXX NC. I’ll be here for the foreseeable future this evening….”

It got even better when they tried to get cute and threaten my family.

“Bro/Sir….you do realize i’m looking at your home address RIGHT NOW? Are you SURE im the person you want to be communicating threats too? Recent reports show that the average response time for police/EMS in this county average from 5-15 minutes. I can guarantee I will get there a lot quicker….CLICK.”

Skivvy Stacker

Hm…he actually FAILED the ASFAB. Hard to see why. I mean, his grammar and spelling are the marks of amazing imagination. His logic, and critical thinking skills are, quite literally, off in space somewhere; and his obvious respect for authority (particularly FEMALE authority) just isn’t measurable.
And that’s being as comic as I can get.

Are we sure this wasn’t Lars?

Jeff LPH 3, 63-66

what does ASFAB stand for?????

Mason

Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery.

The written test they use the last few decades to decide how trainable you are. There’s an overall score you have to cross, but also individual areas of competency (like mechanical or administrative) with each MOS requiring certain scores.

Roh-Dog

Don’t forget the all important ‘General Technical’ score. I forgot mine so I looked it up… A single digit is good, right?

According to the SuperStraight DVE, an average Infantryman’s GT is a fraction. (I’m gonna take him to slip-and-fall school. jussayin)

Anonymous

Gotta have at least 80, 85 if you want an actual MOS usually.

P.S. As they said in Alien 3:

Aaron: Yeah, you can get these drums organized.

David: Right, 85.

Aaron: [starts walking away] And, uh… don’t call me that. [leaves]

Ripley: What’s this 85 thing?

David: Couple of us sneaked a look at his personnel file the day he arrived; it’s his IQ.

Roh-Dog

85?! 12 times smarterer than me? Dang.
Just looked it up, the max for GT is 138. I can’t even spell that high!
None of that matters now as Uncle Sam blew out my o-ring and tossed me to the curb.

Dood has clearly demonstrated his superior intellect. They should let him in.

Recruiter said to show up tomorrow at 0800 to the test site. I said, “What test?”

Turned it in before time was up. Before I made it out the door, they asked if I wanted to go to OCS. Not knowing what OCS was, I said “No, just the Army”.

McNamara’s Moron.

Hondo

Sadly, there’s actually a reasonable chance that he might have been inducted under that particular McNamara “bright idea” program.

Anonymous

Ignorant progressives may stumble upon the idea for “social justice” again…

rgr769

Yes, he definitely would have been enlisted under McNamara’s plan to recruit the semi-retarded. As many here know, the stories of these semi-cretins serving on active duty are legion.

USMC Steve

Hondo, are you referring to Project 100,000?

rgr769

That is exactly what we are referencing. The program was a failed experiment because most of those allowed on active duty were very difficult to train and were the source of all kinds of problems one would expect from those with the IQ of a rock.

Hondo

Bingo. Personnel under that program were often referred to as “McNamara’s Morons”, the “Moron Corps”, or “McNamara’s Boys”.

Often illiterate, they’d scored 10th to 30th percentile on military aptitude tests, and today would be Cat IV and generally ineligible to enlist. In Vietnam, they were 3x as likely to be killed in combat as a qualified volunteer or inductee. And unlike other Vietnam veterans, they actually fared worse after their military service than those who never served at all. (Vietnam veterans as a group are actually more successful economically than their age contemporaries who never served. McNamara’s Project 100,000 are the glaring exception.)

Even the program’s title is misleading. Rather than 100,000, over 300,000 were inducted under the program. Most ended up in a combat arms MOS, and many served in RVN.

But hey – the program put bodies in training classes (and deployable units) without having to mobilize Reserve units, call-up National Guard personnel, or draft anyone with a college deferment. So it was quite politically advantageous – even if it was costly in terms of lives.
