Edward Meggert; the quiet professional phony

Scotty sends us his work on this Edward Meggert fellow who tells fantastical tales of his military career during Vietnam, while he was sent out to kill and maim women and children, how he was a lone survivor of his unit, how he was made to do cruel things to innocent civilians, how the Army had to “deprogram” him after his months of bloody cruelty and then followed him around for ten years to make that sure he didn’t’ explode. But he doesn’t like to talk about it;

“Mr. Meggert’s military experience is real. He is a combat veteran of the Viet Nam War. His was involved in special operations and his military/State Department record may be somewhat protected for this reason. He does not want to discuss his experience nor his subsequent hospitalization for trauma related experiences. He prefers to view those experiences in his past. This reluctance may appear to some to be a sign that he is attempting to deceive others as to the reality of his participation in the military. As many special operations forces were, he may have been instructed to not discuss his war time experience. The investigator was the Clinical Coordinator for the Viet Nam Vet Centers for Alaska in the early eighties and considers himself to be somewhat of an expert in this area. There is nothing in Mr. Meggert’s presentation or his brief descriptions of his duty that cause the investigator to doubt him.”

E. Meggert during the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill he told me several things about his experiences as a Viet Name vet. One of the most horrifying things he said was that he was part of a special forces group reconnaissance unit who were programmed to kill, programmed as mercenaries. He told me that he was the only one of that group who survived and because he was so messed up or whatever, they de-programmed him and sent him back into civilization. And he said that he was watched for 10 years by them to make sure he adjusted back into a normal life.

He also would talk about how highly trained he was to kill, to not mess with him, to not wake him up at night because he might hurt me. Talked about killing women and children. He used words saying he was a black ops, long range reconnaissance, in the special forces, a mercenary, etc.

That’s all from court testimony that you can read at Scotty’s place. You’ll also read how, during discovery, the opposing lawyer tried to get Mr. Meggert to show his DD214, but that he couldn’t produce one. But Meggert did tell how he was sent straight from Basic Training at Fort Leonard Wood to Ranger School at Fort Benning. You’ll read how he threatened his ex-wife with a gun while telling her that he’d grown to like killing women and children in Vietnam. And you’ll read testimony from his sister about how he didn’t like to talk about his service as an Army trained assassin. I don’t blame him, like him, I don’t like to talk about my time in Vietnam – because I wasn’t there, either;

Apparently, he sat out the Vietnam War getting a PHD in the Advanced Science of Tree Huggery and Whale Buggery. But you know, when you’re a sociopath, a phony military career is the best way to make excuses for your bad behavior. He did, however spend a lot of time in Alaska working for that clandestine agency known as the EPA.

I wish there were pictures and Facebook links for this moron, but he doesn’t seem to have any.
