The phony soldier you’ve all been waiting for
From StrikeFO and his satire blog, the Duffle Duffel Blog, the phony soldier we’ve all been looking for. The one guy who pretends to be an admin clerk;
“It was all downhill from there,” Dukes said. “He starts off ‘So, there I was…in the shit…the coffee was gone. We were out of doughnuts.’ Anyone who’s been downrange knows full well Green Bean is almost always open and we’re hip deep in pogey bait, so there’s no excuse. I called Stolen Valor after that.”
After Dukes’ tip, the FBI decided to investigate. In what was a open and shut case, Mr. Faquir was tried and sentenced to a $10,000 fine and one year’s probation. He could not be reached for comment at the time of this article.
Although this story had a happy ending, it’s still not enough for Wendell Dukes. He encourages all 42Ls not to allow their profession to be sullied by posers.
I’ll say it again; it’s SATIRE. We’re still hunting the one guy who pretends to be a POG.

Duffel… DUFFEL. You are diminishing the brand. lol
“We all know we’re hip-deep in pogey bait…”
A good Friday funny, lol.
Hahahaha those 42Ls still have it harder than the Air Force that deploy to Manas and Al Udied. I should know I’m in the AF.
He is sporting a Cav patch though!
Mr. Faquir…..bwahahahaha!
Ausgezeichnet!!!!!
Goddamnit! I gotta change my fake war stories…there I was asshole deep in dirty dishes…
Ha ha ha ha. You’ll NEVER find a Vietnam vet that admits to being a supply clerk or an admin clerk. It’s always “Oh I was Infantry, out hunting VC snipers in the elephant grass”
/facepalm. Still no love for the 92-series.
Hey, I was very proud to have done MKR (Mess Kit Repair) for my Bosnia and Iraq deployments. Not many people can take an old dented and busted field mess kit and return it to service. Think of all those hungary Joes who were able to eat T-Rats! We could take a bent spoon and make it look new again. The bullet holes were a bitch to fix, but I got preeeetyyy dang good with a heiel plazma xzee welder.
“T” rats? What in the holy living, sam hell are “T” rats? lmao! Good un, Roller Dude!

“T” = Tray Rations. Each “tray” was imersed in hot water to (re)heat the food (?) inside, and held enough to serve half a dozen soldiers (or so). Nasty, disgusting, especially the potatoes. I’d have rather eaten the old K Rats.
T Rats (shudder). . . .
What was always fun with T rats was having to open the fuckers with P-38’s…..we’d get 4 guys feverishly working their P-38’s spending all that time and cramped hands to eat that crap…..
I wrote this for Duffle Blog. If you actually DO find a POG poser, a) that is hilarious in a perverse way and b) please ask said poser if this was up to snuff. Thanks for featuring me.
