STOLEN VALOR: RANDY VOEPEL … A DISGRACE TO U.S. NAVY AND ALL WHO HONORABLY SERVED IN VIETNAM
By: MCPO (SW) Terence B. Hoey, USN (Ret.), Stolen Valor Researcher & Investigator
April 30, 2018, New York City
I have been reporting on Valor Thief Voepel since last March 29th, Vietnam Veterans Day. His tales of military derring-do are so outrageous, insulting and unbelievable, I traveled to San Diego on April 16th and exposed him (at the stern of the USS MIDWAY Museum) for what he is: a liar; a complete fraud; and a total disgrace to the U.S. Navy. PERIOD.
Some media outlets could not or did not want to do their homework or listen to the evidence at hand. So, we found a real journalist.
Ken Stone of the Times of San Diego will be breaking the expected news about Voepel’s continued false claims and disgusting remarks about what it is like to be in combat. The Stolen Valor community has obtained several devastating videos of the now and future former CA Assemblyman Randy Voepel claiming to have served with Task Force (TF) 117 in Vietnam. He claims to have served on boats as a gunner inserting U.S. Navy SEALs. He did not, he was onboard the USS GURKE (DD-783) at the time of his wild and unbelievable claims.
We immediately provided these videos to Ken Stone of the Times of San Diego who is working on a story that will certainly rock CA politics to the core and finally propel the issue of Stolen Valor to national attention.
New insulting and disgusting Voepel videos here at the Times of San Diego:
The Stolen Valor community is calling on Voepel to resign immediately without any further delay. In addition we are calling on federal and state law enforcement agencies with jurisdiction and the CA Assembly to conduct a full and complete investigation into Voepel’s claims, the denials and misinformation provided by his Chief of Staff, Mason Herron and to ensure the U.S. Stolen Valor Act of 2013, 18 USC 498 and CA Assembly Bill 153 (CA Stolen Valor Act of 2017) is applied as appropriate. Voepel supported CA AB 153, a bill that will likely and finally facilitate his removal from office.
The Stolen Valor community, Veterans and like-minded patriots across our great nation are watching this story as it develops and we wait for law enforcement and leadership in the CA Assembly to take action.
I will be reporting on this story as it continues to develop and will not stop exposing confirmed valor thieves like Voepel and the miscreants he now represents.
California’s last Vietnam Veteran serving in the Assembly is nothing more than a CLOWN, problem is … no one is laughing!

Gig ’em, Master Chief!
As an Iraq vet who ran support missions into some hairy situations over there. I find his comments about how support ppl aren’t in the shit jbullshit. I also find it funny that I saw some bad shit but that was pre CAB days. Never got one and I’m ok with that. You , on the other hand never put boots on the ground and you have the gall to claim a CAR. And want to diss folks who have done more than you. You piece of shit. End of rant
Non, I think you missed the entire point. It’s not about who was “in the shit”. It has nothing to do with who has seen combat and who hasn’t. It just happens to be that nearly 100% of posers can’t help but tell tales of their valor in combat and their time “in hell”. If these fakes lied about serving in a noncombat zone or CONUS for their entire career, it would be all the same. They are still liars who step on the service of much better men and women who served honorably. It just so happens that combat service, awards for valor, and service in special operations units is much more sexy to them and, frankly, to many people who know nothing about the military and eagerly listen to their fake tales of incredible feats, heroic battles, courage in the face of torture and imprisonment, and classified operations. Posers spin these webs of lies because that’s what sells.
These posers weave tales that steal honor from men and women who exhibited courage and bravery when those virtues cost them blood or their very lives. They have no shame in stepping over the bodies of the fallen to make their sad lives more exciting or earn respect from others. Many of these posers tell stories that flat-out smear the honor of the US military by suggesting we committed horrible crimes, all classified of course (except they can tell you). They have no guilt or remorse in doing this, and will continue to do so until named and shamed. Some continue their lies even after this.
It has nothing to do with “dissing folks who have done more than you”. It is about upholding the honorable service and sacrifice of our nation’s veterans and our honored dead.
So just take a breath and relax.
My bad, Non. I thought you were ranting at the Master Chief. My apologies.
No worries my friend, guess I should have made myself clearer in my post.
I just no learn to read good.
No problem. you did pretty good.
Now, Go apply for your Green card.

NCF,
Voepel was junior sailor on a ship, he claimed to have been a combat hardened warrior. He chastised air and sea support, the very service he was in.
He is a fraud and a liar, that is what this issue is about.
It is NOT about your honorable service, it is about Voepel’s lies! You done good Brother!
Voepel has ZERO personal awards, by all accounts he was a marginally adequate sailor at best on a ship during his claimed time on the Delta inserting SEALs and tasting the blood of his comrades in the back of his throat!
How disgusting can a Valor Thief get … Voepel just raised the bar pretty damn high … and he is a politician to boot!
Thanks, MCPO, I guess that speech he made just hit me the wrong way. Seeing as he didn’t do the stuff he claimed and wants to lecture others on what a real combat vet does. As if he knew.
No problemos Brother!
Isn’t sitting at a radar console with a hot cup of joe in a destroyer’s CIC, out in the South China Sea, just like going up-river in a PBR in the Viet of the Nam to insert a SEAL team?
I think it’s more like spending Christmas Eve in Cambodia. It’s etched on my brain that way, anyways.
It’s “SEARED!” SEARED, goddammit!
Especially when you were sent on that secret mission into Cambodia by President Nixon before he was president. Don’t forget, Lurch still has that CIA man’s hat for proof. Maybe Randy has some VC black pajamas as proof of his training by them.
A politician and a liar. That explains everything.
I’m confused. Is this about Randy Voepel or John Kerry?
Both!
Well done, Master Chief. Well done.
Hammer the DOG SHIT out of him, Master Blaster!
Hoey ain’t no master blaster…surface warfare yeah. EOD negative…no Charles County crab on him
Master Blaster was a nickname for all MCPO’s when I was in…
MCPO = Hammer
Voepel = Stake
MCPO = Hammer
Voepel = Poop
As in, MCPO hammered the crap out of Randy Voepel and his phony claims.
There, fixed that for you.
BOY, I sure wouldn’t want to be his SQUEEKHOLE!!!
That’s because you’re not a dork.
did I do that right?
The poor bastard done dorked his own squeekhole. There is just no excuse for that level of the stoopid.
Hooyah, Master Blaster! Well done brother!

A true replacement for the one and why not only Bernasty.
(Rustle rustle)
I’m sure he’ll be pulling the “SS-214 was secret because he was on such dangerous missions…
Just had to take a dump on his perfectly honorable military service…
Sigh…..
Here we go again.
The nerve of this asswipe needle dick butt fucker…
SS=(Super Secret)
Also good for Secret Squirrel.
Sierra Hotel, hang in there, we appreciate your hard work and diligence.
Looks like he’s sporting a Vietnam Service medal and the CAR in that pic. Out of precedence, of course.
What an asshole.

Voepel to his chief of staff; “what is that flushing sound?”
Chief of staff…we’re in the shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit!
One of California’s last Republicans.
In every picture I’ve seen of that turd on here, he looks no-shit retarded, like he’s mentally handicapped.
In every picture I’ve seen of that turd on here, he
looks no-shit retarded, like he’s mentally handicapped.make me want to field goal kick him right in the yogurt gun./fixed that for us.
I look at him and all I can think of is…boot to the head!
That was my initial reaction to each of his pictures posted up here.
https://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/False-Allegations-of-Stolen-Valor-Raised-Against-Assemblyman-Randy-Voepel-479938893.html has the local TV station’s response…. they claim he’s legit. I would not expect much censure, despite claims of infantry fighting (on shipboard?) etc.
Better chance of his being crucified there than a Democrat, I guess.
That’s from April 16th…..more info has been brought to light since then.
Interesting that Google search fails to turn up anything more recent.
Look at the Master Chief’s comments.
I was referring to public media, not the Chief- seems they are not covering it.
the gears are turning…give it time

Look who’s been running his pie hole on that link.
Dallas Wittgenfeld
Hey Rob Nelson ? What is your affiliation with the military kook’s blogs owner Jonn Lilyea and another owner SEAL Donald Shipley on their social networks. Better yet, what is your secret profile name and Larry Wilske’s fake profile name. People in California need to go read what all you two have been spouting about to bring Terence Brian Hoey all the way to SOCAL from his New York City big apple I.C.E. and F.E.M.A. government offices gang stalking another Vietnam War Veteran for your “Media Whoring”. I noticed Hoey’s media TV interview never mentioned himself being investigated for conspiracy to murder/sabotage another Vietnam War Veteran’s muder here in Florida by the Federal Aviation Administration. He knows all about it.
Oh, so little old QuEeFeRs41 the bony eared assfish is out of jail for the time being?
WTF was he trying to say?
I’m guessing that Witless is celebrating National Bernath Day. Mayday! Mayday!
Apparently, it was one long vowel movement.
Too bad you and Birdbath couldn’t have shared the same cell in the pokey, then you could have shared that Anal Intruder III with the gorilla fist attachment.
So, according to Witless, it’s someone else’s fault that Dan the Plane Crashing Man was an incompetent pilot? This coming from a clown who was arrested for flying while
intoxicated?
I guess the Witless Wonder thinks the FAA killed Birdbath by telling him what altitude he was supposed to climb to and maintain. Needless to say 0 feet AGL wasn’t his was assigned altitude.
Delete “was” in the last line of the comment above. My editor is clearly incompetent.
Ka-BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
MCPO is the mower and Randy Voepel’s ass is grass!!
I’m glad to see that bony eared assfish and his lies brought out in the daylight!
River assault force navy seal insertion ops = laying in his bunk beating his meat on ship
What a phony baloney. Go for the throat, Master Chief.
You said it all.
Hammer this shitheel flat and fly him from the main mast as a warning to others. Let this be a case where your free speech trumps his free speech, cause you know that will be his defense. As to his political party, I’d rather have an honest Dem (cough, cough) in the seat than a delusional liar.
Petty Douchebag 1st Class
Well done Master Chief – can’t wait to see Mr. Stone’s article.
The second round of lying about the lie and major bactracking:

I CAN’T WAIT to see the next installment of this series!!!
Excellent work, Master Chief. Glad there’s at least one newsie willing to not give him a pass!
Master Chief;
Sharkman sends-
HOO YAH
BRAVO ZULU
With sincere gratitude for your continuing service- if (when) we meet, the first 7 rounds (1 round = 1 beer+1 shot) are on me.
Guy looks like dork…
Thank you Master Chief, your hard work is greatly appreciated!
I’m surprised the media hasn’t jumped all over this story… he was making his false claims at a Tea Party Meeting! You know how much they love conservatives (sarc).
This guy needs to become a household name, for all the wrong reasons, especially in California.
