Jason Stowers/Smith; Aussie poser
Our friends in Australia send their work on this fellow who goes by the names Jason Stowers and Jason Smith, but the folks at Australia New Zealand Military Imposters think that neither are his name.
Of course it comes as no surprise that this wannabe also chooses to be a ‘Major in Special Forces’, complete with SAS Beret and ID Card, suitably blanked out to protect his secret identity. Wearing the coveted SAS Beret makes this bloke a valour thief as well as being a medal cheating wannabe.
Not only does this wannabe parade about in a uniform he has no entitlement to wear, but he also has his own little shrine to his courage in his house. Readers will note that both medals are American, but that’s not surprising as everything he wears was made in the good old USA.
He even has a totally legit Special Operations ID card which can be purchased for the princely sum of $5.95 at this link.

Hmm. Now, why does that ID look familiar? Oh, yeah – because it took me less than 3 minutes using Google to find a firm selling it as a “novelty ID”.

It’s available to anyone who has $5.95 plus S&H.
I wonder if he had his All-Points Logistics employee identification card with him when he got busted?
Douche Down Under ..
Yes we call him the douche down under
When he shows up, we want to chunder
Watch him lie, you can hear him blunder
He better run, he better take cover
No dog tags on display. WTF is this amateur hour?
He’s such a secret squirrel that his dog tags are controlled items and have to be locked in a GSA approved safe at night.
Shitbag. I would have loved to see him flash that ID at a real digger. He’d end up on the floor real quick.
Well at least we don’t have a monopoly on twat waffles…nice to see our Aussie friends expose their turds.
They are far more eloquent in their verbiage and I can almost hear the words being read in that delightful Australian accent that so many of us in the States enjoy hearing.
I’ve always enjoyed spending time with the Aussies, great people and great country!
Thanks for the lovely compliments about our country & people. They are more than reciprocated, at least from me. I loved my all too short stay in America, even if it was in the People’s Republic of California.
Had a beer with a veteran I met in Disneyland, all because I stopped my kids and paid our respects during the playing of the American National Anthem…
Unfortunately, we do have more than our share of posers (or “bullshit artists” as we would refer to them). Disgraceful. Glad to see one of them given the treatment.
“BS artiste” is one of the milder epithets we use for such tools, Simon.
Hope to get a chance to see your continent one day while I’m still on this side of the dirt.
If you ever coming down here, we should try to catch up for a drinkie. Australia’s a beautiful bastard of a place to visit. Remember that everything here is designed by nature to kill human beings, a fact that we are inordinately proud of.
And yes, I agree that it was one of the more polite terms I would use. We should design an appropriate punishment for the oxygen thieves who decide that they can play pretend & try to steal from others in this way.
Simon……back in the day, I could have taken my R&R from Vietnam to your lovely country. Didn’t do it. I still regret it! In 1971 the boys who did take R&R there said it was like the U.S. Back in the 1950’s
If they went to Brisvegas (err, Brisbane) then they are still trying to reach the 1950’s *grins*
A lot of Brits refer to their military POSers as “Walter Mittys”, do you Aussies use that term or do you just call them what we do, names like “Oxygen-thieving booger-eating bedwetters”?
Are you certain that card did not mean he had been through special operations? Such as a lobotomy, a hand pump for his Johnson, replacement testicles, new teeth for his shit-eating grin, and a replacement for a lack of conscience?
Shitbags are all alike. Living the lie, impressing the gullible. There’s a special place for idiots like that. You know, there is actually a satellite channel that shows nothing but fish. Has anyone considered one called Phony Wannabees? Plenty already to take up one season. Directed similar to American Greed, it could very well become a reality if some one had the dough and motivation. Properly handled, these idiots could be approached from the perspective, “We want the public to know you and how much you sacrificed for our country”. As delusional as most of them are, they’d believe a naieve producer was buying their bull shit and going to make a true star/hero out of them. You’d probably have to do three dozen interviews before ever showing your first series on television. Sooner of later the other phonies would catch on and refuse an interview. That would not prevent producers from secretly taping them from location to location and give them the exposure they DESERVE. First showing, most of us who post on this site would be sitting at home in a Lazy Boy, with a bottle of Scotch, pants unzipped, saying “This is gonna be good!”
Missing the obvious his special operator badge is not valid in CONUS, it is only valid overseas while the battle the international gang of rogue Amish.
IIRC from some of the other phonies from down under posing as a member of the military there is considered “fraudulently presenting oneself as an officer of the commonwealth” and is considered the same as pretending to be a cop.
Yeah, well the upper crusts of government here don’t even trust the military with guns. We’re just a couple of notches below skating rink rent-a-cops.
Wow, talk about retro, looks like the khakis I wore in the 70’s. I don’t think we ever wore them that tailored though…
He must really be going retro — I see he has his incense burner figure on display. He probably smokes Kool cigarettes, drinks grape soda and parts his hair down the middle!
He smokes something, alright. Most likely pole.
That would be the first Australian I’ve seen who claims Afghan service but isn’t wearing a single Australian ribbon.
Is that a European/African/Middle Eastern Theater Campaign Medal on the bottom row, left?
Hi all,
Australia has an imposter site such as this. Here is the link:
