Jack Vreeland, Fake UDT/SEAL
At the risk of sounding redundant, our friends at militaryphony.com send us this Jack Frank Edward Vreeland guy. Jack likes to dress up with lots of patches and pins that say UDT/SEAL on them.
Jack takes his claims of being a Navy SEAL so seriously that he likes to leave comments on the UDT/SEAL Museum page. Of course people began to notice that something was not right about him.
If people are going to fake being a Navy SEAL they shouldn’t try to “blend-in” at the UDT/SEAL Museum.

There is dumb and then there is stoopid. This asshat is ate up with da stoopid. lol
This is more like weapons-grade fucktardery, I believe
Terminal case of the dumbass.
His military education includes the semen course…..seems legit.
Thank you, Dave Hardin.
Assmange of the first, second or third degree?
I say we doll him up in SCUBA gear and give him a chance to show his stuff – in shallow water, of course. Maybe the birdbath in his backyard would do.
Oh, P.S.: I like the jungle boots. But then, I go into wet places to shoot bugs and birds, so mine would look like crap instead of all polished up.
The use of the jungle boot in SEAsia didn’t start until Ro-Search (Wellco) got the contract for it. Prior to that, a tropical boot with a canvas upper was used during World War II.
This site gives a good history of this kind of footgear, which is still available.

In this case, per some of the comments on that article, the black uppers didn’t become available until the 1990s.
This old fart in the wind is a gasbag. I don’t know why he thinks there’s something inadequate about being a deck ape. Three years as a Seaman Apprentice – yeah, he really tried hard to advance, didn’t he?
Fill his gob with sofnalime, push him in and watch him fizzzzzzzzzz
Damn, I am old. I had Jungle Boots and they were approved for wear when I was in. I also had solid green bdu’s (?)
I just had to jump in on the jungle boot thing. Dave Hardin was in the Corps the same time I was early in his career so he might be able to support what I’m going to say regarding the boots. I was a grunt (0331) from 81 to 85 with Lima 3/8 on Camp Geiger and a bunch of us bought the jungle boots at a few surplus stores out along highway 17 and at first no one said anything about them, but then we got this asshole XO who banned us from wearing them in the field stating that they were NOT a part of our uniform. But then the Skipper, good ole Captain Chuck Johnson reversed that order and allowed us to wear them in the bush only, of course. Not sure if this issue was Corps-wide or just within Lima 3/8. Also, at first all we had were the more common tread pattern, but then all of a sudden the mud-release pattern came available and we referred to the other type of boot as fake jungle boots.
In my recollection I was still wearing jungle boots up to the point we switched to MARPAT camo. If not to that point it was darn close.
Halfway through my enlistment we switched from the sateen cammie pattern to the woodland pattern, but as far as the jungle boots, after we were allowed to wear them the second time, nothing was ever said as far as I knew and it seemed like everyone wore them in the field after that, but we were never allowed to wear them at any other time except in the bush.
The issue jungle boot had the Vibram style sole until the new mud release style sole came out in I believe 1970. In the latter part of my 15 month tour in ol’ RVN they started to show up in the supply system, anyway for the Army. I purchased my first pair (old style sole) from Ranger Joe’s to wear at Ranger School in 1968. I am uncertain when the when the Marines got the mud sole.
rgr769, I was in the Marines was 81 to 85, but at that time we still had several senior staff NCOs who were Viet Nam Vets in our unit. One of our section leaders, SSgt Heltsley was one of these Marines in our unit and he educated us on the jungle boot sole history and it was pretty much as you stated. What we were stupidly calling the fake jungle boots at that time was totally incorrect and simply was the result of some misinformed Jarhead passing on this falsehood. Heltsley told us that they had the Vibram sole on their boots and not the non-directional mud sole.
I started my third enlistment during that time. I remember the same thing. We could use them in the field/deployed but not in the rear.
But almost anything would slide in the field. At Swamp Lagoon I took a blue tent with a floor, screens and zippers with me. It was up after dark and down before dawn. But I slept like a baby.
Also took rubber boots with me. I picked up some doors for my M151 on a visit to Ft Ripley and some of that fancy new netting from Ft. Bragg. Never took anything from Ft. Sill because I felt sorry for those poos bastards to start with.
Being a Plt. Sgt in Artillery did not exactly suck. I spent more that one cold Jan/Feb on Blue Beach in Vieques.
Sorry about those short rounds at 29 Palms, shit happens.
Ya, ya, whatever…the Soviet says I am falling behind in my house work. I tried to get away with using dryer sheets instead of liquid softener…evidently that is a no no around here.
Sandwiches and beer would be nice.
You have a personal chef. I don’t. I do not feel sorry for you.
Dryer sheets can be use to clean the lint out of the filter basket. You can’t do that with liquid softener. She’s wrong. I’m right.
They both smell godawful. Neither is allowed in my house. I have to hold my nose whenever I have to go into the laundry aisle at the grocery store. We use white vinegar with tea tree oil (in the liquid fabric softener dispenser) for our fabric softener. Yes, it works, and no, the clothes don’t smell like vinegar afterward.
That makes sense. Vinegar completely removes soap/detergent from your laundry.
Dryer sheets a thinly coated with oil that is supposed to eliminate static electricity. Remember the anti-static spray? I’ve always liked it better when the sheets and pillow cases were crisp, and not particularly soft.
The dryer sheets work well to keep bees and wasps away from the food on the picnic table.
JSF
Interesting, I will give it a try. I don’t picnic much but she gets all Soviet acting if wasps are around. She starts goose stepping around with arms flailing like some kind of honor guard at Lenin’s grave.
He looks to be in his 70s now, the only thing I can think of is the onset of dementia.
Let’s say we grab him, dress him up in a wet suit, pound 9 or 10 boxes of baking soda up his azz, toss him in the water and see what happens.
Could toss a few 1/4 sticks of C-4 into the mix to make the experience more realistic for him.
Would be reminiscent of those plastic toy divers we put in the tub.
Geez, I remember those. That’s a really old memory!
Opps, forgot this.

Oh LOOK, IT’S GI JOE SWIMMIN UNDERWATER!!!
AND THEN A BIG BROWN SHARK CAME!!!!!

Oh, yeah, “G.I. Joe up my ass.” I remember that one. He has done some funny stuff.
With the Kung-Fu grip!
Oh, yes! I forgot that, and the ghetto burger versus McDonald’s.
The “Welfare burger”… on Wonder bread!
I got some ice cream…wanna lick?
PSYCH!
If you check out the military phony link, there’s another pic of JACK VREELAND in Native American attire. I wonder if he is really a Native American and what tribe, or is he another Phildo Monkrees/Ward Churchill/Fauxahauntus type?
I love the mirrored sunglasses – just makes the whole douchebag pic look “bad ass”.
Senator Elizabeth Warren unavailable for comment.
Ate up old fucker looks like a Sad Sack cartoon character.
Cocksucker.
He’s festooned with some nice large bright attention getting patches that are seemly made to invite “place reticle crosshairs here.” Surely he’s the real deal!
He said festooned. Hehehe.
This turd could blend in at All-Points Logistics.
I could see him scooping Jello at the APL cafeteria. A privately servicing Phildo afterwards.
A truly “Phildosical” dude.
At his age, he probably isn’t thinking too straight. I would cut him some slack.
At his age, he thinks straight enough to post to FB. The fact that he is an old liar means only that he is no longer a young liar. He had his opportunities to do other things in service, but he chose not to. Now, he wants the attention and honor that go with doing those other things. F him.
Well stated…more eloquent than me
And he has the presence of mind to scrub any comments that might be critical of him.
He’s well aware of what he’s doing.
“Once a man, and twice a child”? Certainly a possibility.
But “Hey doood! You got out as an E-2.” should have fixed it. Doubling down on the lie is either shitbaggery or psychosis.
My guess is he either has dementia or he’s just a Dutch Rudder Gang grade of STUPID.
Can’t he be both?
Mmmmmyeah, could be!
That’s the minimum grade for entry in the DRG, isn’t it?
I thinks he’s a very oogly woman.
If Forrest Gump had a stepdad…
Forrest Gump woulda looked at him and said something like “Stupid is as stupid does, and you are plenty stupid!”
I really do not understand people needing approval from others. I talk more about other peoples’ service than my own.
I don’t know how things work in the Navy. In the Army, this slope shouldered, non athletic, dimbulb, would be called “Scooter” the motor pool jeep washer!
Seal my ass! He’d drown in a backyard kiddie pool!
I love that picture of him as a fake Indian (feather not dot) on the Military Phony website. I wonder who holds that hair when he gets drunk and is puking in the toilet. With that righteous hair hat I am wondering if he is a real dude, as well.
Chief Bigshitzinnadawoods, of the Mocktaw tribe.
Maybe thats how he got the rocker?
The term ass monkey comes to mind.
He was a Navy seal in the movie “Goobers”.
