Mr. Rogers’ Message to Military Fakes
Through the magic of videotape and YouTube, regular TAH reader ChipNASA has discovered a historical artifact of great importance. He has located the late Mr. Fred Rogers’ – of Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood fame – message to military fakes and valor thieves of all eras.
Let’s just say it looks like Mr. Rogers, an ordained minister, wasn’t a fan of their false claims. Without further ado, here’s his message to them:
Rest in peace, Mr. Rogers. And thanks for the smiles – including the unintended ones. (smile)

PS: told ya I was stealing that link, Chip. (smile)

Okay…I’ll bite.
What the FUCK was THAT?!!!!
Just what it looked like – Mr. Rogers teaching hand and arm signals to the youth of the day.
Just for clarification, here’s little longer clip where he says…”Where is *pointer*”…and then “Where is Tall Man” (I believe hard to hear the audio) and then “Where is Ring Finger” etc…
Still EPIC out of context Fred Rogers…and you KNOW, he *had* to know what he was doing…..
He certainly did, ChipNASA. That’s obvious at just after 20 sec, and again at just after 30 sec. Both times, it looks like Rogers nearly “loses it” and starts laughing. (smile)
CLASSIC!!
With the middle finger, maybe it oughtta be dubbed:
Hhere’s the poser,
Where’s the poser.
Here’s to you!
Here’s to you!…
Turns out Mr. Rodgers was a bit, well, “earthier” than I’d remembered!
Hilarious.
(PS: I’m pretty sure the “expunged’ word in most cases was “flying”. The guys Mr. Rodgers was interviewing are the “Flying Karamozov Brothers”.)
My son was mesmerized by Mr. Rogers. I tolerated him. But he said in an old interview he had wanted to join the military at one point but was red/green color blind.
The military myth about Mr. Rogers is that he was a Scout-Sniper in Viet Nam.

Still more believable than most of the posers.
all those years I could not stand this man and would not let my kids watch him MR Rogers I’m sorry I guess I was wrong about you
I am in complete shock….Mr. Rogers giving the finger is just as shocking as people lying about military service right?
