Oscar Rodriguez – USMC Force Recon & SEAL Team III “Twofer”
The folks at MilitaryPhony.com send us their work on Oscar Rodriguez. Oscar has several middle initials listed – V, J and O – but most often he does not have a middle initial listed at all. Oscar is 60 years old as of April 2019.
Rodriguez has photos on his Facebook page that imply he was a Sergeant of Marines and served as a Recon Marine.
He also implies that he jumped out of airplanes with a dog strapped to him.
He also claims this is his RECON unit doing “Spy” (sic) extraction. It is actually called “SPIE” for Special Patrol Insertion/Extraction (SPIE) system.
On his LinkedIn profile, he details his military assignments and claims 20 years of military service, which would imply a retirement…
Here are the two emblems above…
After discovering that Oscar Rodriguez was not showing up in the BUD/S-SEAL database, his official military records were ordered through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.
Rodriguez was in the US Marine Corps for two years. He was discharged from 1st Recon Battalion which is different than the 1st Force Recon that he claimed.
He was a field radio operator and was most likely in a support role. He has no training or qualifications for the Recon MOS. There is a possibility that he may have been part of the SPIE exercise above since he was in the unit, but this would be hard to prove or disprove.
He was discharged as a Lance Corporal (E-3) vs. the implied Sgt (E-5) in the one Facebook photo.
There were no Navy records on him so the SEAL Team III claim is doubtful.
You can say one thing for Oscar – he is ambitious with his claims. Two special warfare designations across two services.

I was at 2nd Radio Bn as a Supply bubba. They let me play one day and go SPIE rigging….it was fun. I dont hang my whole life on it 20 years later though.
Follow on query: how does that get marked for poser scores: 1 for Recon/1 for SEAL? Does Recon get priority?
That’s a tough one. You could record it like an NFL sack and give 1/2 for each, but I’d lean on a full claim for each… it skews the sampling number but you can always provide an asterisk by the number and explain below in the key. I mean, you’re going to have a key, aren’t you?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/61*
Above accounts for 154 (Babe Ruth) and 164 (Mantle/Maris) game seasons.
Jay, when were you with 2d Radio Bn?
I was there 1991-94 Radio Recon and again 2010-13 as Bn S3 Chief.
Regarding this guy, the SPIE rig is a CH-53E, which means it wasn’t in service when he was serving. Marine Corps was still flying the CH-53D (no fuel arm) when I stepped on the yellow footprints in 1984
Oscar is not part of the NDSM brotherhood!
Sadly, another “Look At Me!” Embellisher who has a Brain Hiccup and lives in an Alternate Reality World.
😐
Oscar is a weiner.
Q: I wonder how his wife feels about all of this?
A: Dunno… we’ll Oscar.
Somebody stop me!
Drumroll
How I’m glad I’m not that Oscar Rodriguez,
All my lies out there to be all seen,
And just like an Oscar Meyer Wiener,
Everyone would take a big bite out of me!
Thankyuhverymuch, don’t forget to tip the Veal and try the Waitress!!!
Wow, all of that training and experience in 2 years. I am a loser.
The question to ask would be, was he unhappy with his Force Recon life and that is why he jumped to the Navy to be a SEAL? Maybe he worked for NCIS and all of those were undercover OPS to bust those Marines and Sailors who were posing as Special Operators out in the field?
You know like when he stopped by the CIA store and got the $24.95 coffee mug…I bought one too, along with my golf ball set. I only ever got the bill when I worked with those guys. They won’t even admit to working there when you visit them at their office!
What’s funny is the every secret squirrel, National Intelligence Agency has a gift shop… All of them. Coffee mugs, golf balls, pens and shirts are their biggest sellers. Just sayin.
And yet when you stop by the Betty Ford Clinic gift shop and ask for some commemorative shot glasses, everyone loses their fucking minds.
Now that right there is funny.
Yes, yes it is. And I’m stealing it.
LMAO. Rehab is for quitters!
Correction: Coffee mug was $16.95, golf balls were $7.99 per sleeve. Conference expense right?
In case you like to follow them, they are on Twitter and Instagram now https://twitter.com/CIA/status/1121475590052306946/photo/1?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Eembeddedtimeline%7Ctwterm%5Eprofile%3ACIA&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cia.gov%2Findex.html
My lab worked on a DIA project that had CIA oversight. After a meeting here I jokingly asked one of the Agency kids (he looked barely 25) if I could see his “Get Out of Jail” card.” He reached into his wallet and pulled out a credit card sized CAC with no image and on the back it said something like “Call this number: (nnn) nnn-nnnn”
He would not allow me to hold it!
Honest-to-God. Anybody know what I’m talking about? Definitely *not* the joke card we’re all familiar with.
This piece of garbage is displaying a Disable Vet license plate? I didn’t see any references supplied above that indicate he was separated due to injury. If he’s claiming this I’m sure the NJMVC would like to know if he lied when applying.
New Jersey law (N.J.S.A. 39:4-207.10) permits exemption from payment of municipal parking meter fees, for up to 24 hours, for disabled veterans and Purple Heart recipients under certain, specific circumstances. Stolen Valor perhaps?
Is a frog’s ass waterproof?
Is a frog’s ass waterproof…
That’s damn funny.
Requesting permission to steal, over;
I’ve heard they slam shut as soon as they hit the water. Anyway, someone told me that at some time; perhaps when I was jumping off that pier in Little Creek at Marine Amphibious Recon School fifteen feet above the waterline.
Yeah, I saw that this shitbag is apparently fellow resident of the PDRNJ. Him and Comrade Murphy would probably get along swimmingly(no pun intended). What an asshat
I wish I were a Oscar Recon weiner
That is what I truly wish to be
Cause if I were a Oscar Recon weiner
Everyone would be in love with me
In the SPIE photo, it appears the cammies are the digital ones, hard to tell. But – the boots are clearly the tan leather soft boots vs. Vietnam era.
On his Facebook profile photo, he has a photo of somebody jumping with a dog. It is clearly an Army uniform in the photo.
Oscar is a humble, retired warrior – he didn’t feel the need to provide details in his resume of his Army Special Forces career.
Chin’s wrong, too. Oscar has a prominent, jutting chin.
The real deal peeps don’t have that jutting chinland.
OSCAR RODRIGUEZ STOLE THAT PICTURE AND THE AIRMAN’S IDENTITY!!
sbalm:
Oscar Rodriguez stole that picture from a 2014 article featured in “The Atlantic” titled: “Afghanistan: Dogs of War”
https://www.theatlantic.com/photo/2014/06/afghanistan-dogs-of-war/100750/
After clicking on the above link, scroll to picture Number 15. The Airman identified in the picture is:
“15. Airman 1st Class Jason Fischman, 83rd Expeditionary Rescue Squadron pararescueman, hoists a U.S. Army tactical explosive detection dog into a HH-60G Pave Hawk helicopter during a joint rescue training scenario at Bagram Air Field, Afghanistan, on June 21, 2013.”
The picture was taken by USAF/Staff Sgt. Stephenie Wade.
Shades of Tim Poe on America’s Got Talent.
Oscar Rodriguez has some explaining to do.
PJs don’t just rescue people, they also rescue dogs? The more you know.
As long as they don’t duct tape them in the back of their light sport plane and be tempted to stab them if they get unruly.
Oh Danny B; how we miss your antics.
Uh, no. No, we don’t.
*Rustle Rustle*
(((OVER)))
Only if they have the PV (Para Veterinarian) certification.
Just checking…is that really a thing or are you just messing with us?
Nice catch. This guy is a piece of work. NJ DMV should be asked to re-verify his service connected disability status with the VA. He may be service connected, but it isnt from the fantasy career he claims as a military career.
Wow. That dog is like “meh. Another day at the office”. Cool as
Dog looks like he’s done this before.
I wonder if he drives the Weinermobile? Somehow, I think that would be fitting? What, all this derring do and no claim of the Purple Heart! No doorag, no motorcycle, no dog, no sunglasses and no 1000 yard meat gazers stare? This fuckwad isn’t even trying! I hope his ass is thrown in the gray bar hotel!!
Fuck Him!
WW, I DO NOT THINK even for a split second that Oscar Meyer would even THINK of hiring Oscar Rodriguez as a Driver because he would be constantly trying to give head to the front of the vehicle every time it stopped.
“SPY” (sic) photo from Marine Corps Times. How could this be his RECON unit?
https://www.marinecorpstimes.com/news/your-marine-corps/2018/10/08/recon-shortage-why-these-elite-marines-are-facing-a-manpower-crisis/?fbclid=IwAR1LoHnWPY4XFqsrbNePoa2z1I9FzBz_rQV9Z5z6NPQxuEa1bCunZvdHuaA
(Photo is half-way down the article, scroll to see it)
Actually, the “SPY” group is separate from the “SPIE” group, and not just because of the spelling, either.
It’s because the “SPY” designation stands for “saps, pussies, yutzes”. Now you know what the difference really is.
Rule #5545 on who to spot a fake wanna be.
They can’t even get the basic acronyms right.
Let alone the slang correct.
And they have trouble spelling SWEADEN.

They also have SHITTY Photoshop skillz and can’t keep a plane in the air.

Saw this POS on the MP linky evening past. Looks like we can SPIE a real winner weiner in Oscar Rodriguez. You lying, embellishing turd tonguer! Closest you ever came to a K-9 Corps Warrior is when you were eating the sh^t that he shat in your lying mouth. Feel sorry for your wife if you kiss her with that filthy thing.
Can’t remember when we last had a dual warrior claim at TAH/MP. We’ve called for the deployment of the Continent of Insults recently and it was determined that the individual was not worthy of the keyboard ink. Force Recon and SEAL claim? No door gunner? No Green Delta Beret Force?
Again, let me be the FIRST to call for the deployment of the Continent of Insults on the lying POS Oscar Rodriguez, standing in the blood and on the bodies of true Warriors. Since he made two (2) embellishing/false claims, maybe we need to give him two (2) passes? Can I get a 2nd and an AYE? I do know that Chip’s trigger finger is getting itchy!
Back to my honey do details. And Oscar…Phuque you!
I SECOND your motion, who will say “AYE”?
Lucky you guys are and so is Oscar.
I an not in my usual cubicle world today but I am online.
CoI request and a second, do we have an “AYE”?
AYE!!!!
We may have to cut him some slack since “Y” is so close to the “I” and “E” on a keyboard.
The “Lance Corpora” (sic) and shortened military history seems normal since Mr. Rodriguez was “sheep-dipped” by the CIA along with Frank Dux. They were both recruited out of a bathroom by the CIA director. Not the same bathroom so I want to be clear about that. Although they served at the same time, the closest that Frank Dux and Oscar Rodriguez got to each other was when they were blindfolded and dropped off in a remote location as part of their intense training.
If you are not aware, Frank Dux has recently claimed victory in getting Don Shipley’s YouTube channel shut down after Frank’s articles appeared on ArtVoice where he exposed all Stolen Valor Vultures.
Oscar was a SPIE for the CIA for years. He went by the moniker “Rum Donkey.” It has since been retired so there is no security violation with revealing it.
The second floor staff lounge at the CIA has been named in his honor. The plaque is just above the microwave.
Maybe Brennan recruited him using a wide stance in one of the stalls. I hear there is a great deal of “recruiting” done in that fashion for Agency special ops.
Oscar Rodriguez – *PTUI*
Aye.

timetositincorner
BTW, a BIG second and AMEN! on what you posted!
👏👏👏
Double dipping poser.
Bet he has two dogs, one for each claim.
Force Recon AND a SEAL? Wow, go big or go home, huh?
How the fuck does one spend two years on AD in the Corps? Has there ever been a 2-year enlistment, even in the 70’s?
Sure as hell wasn’t one for the Marines in the 90’s, although they offered a VERY few 2/6 Active/Reserve options in the Navy at that time.
Sparky: I was a Navy 2/6 with AD from ’69-’71. When I hit Nam, I volunteered for 1st Recon, along with four other buddy corpsmen – with not a one of us knowing what it was. Two weeks later of in-country RIP and voila! we were doing LRRPs. How did this happen? Recon had started a phased shut-down and lost many of their Docs. We were so naïve, we got suckered into volunteering. We didn’t earn jump wings, but we did spie rig and ladder insertion/extraction training.
As for Oscar Rodriquez, UP YOURS ASSHOLE. We lost 14 men during my time with Recon, of which 10 died as a result of a spie rig extraction gone wrong. You dishonor their memory.
SPIE rig …. wasn’t that called STABO back then? I remember at Campbell (in the 80s) seeing someone flying below a chopper — spread eagle –. I think it was Campbell …. could have been Benning or Bragg.
Ah … the memory is the second thing to go. I forgot what the first thing was.
Two different extraction systems. The Marine Recon units in RVN used the SPIE system which could pull an entire team out at one time, as they had more powerful helos. The STABO rig was an Army extraction system designed to be used with Hueys. It could only lift three or four men at a time. We used it to lift three at time from a six-man LRRP team. The SPIE rig had the men attached a different lengths of the single rope. The STABO had a separate rope and Y-harness for each man. You wore a harness stitched to a pistol belt as part of your web gear. The STABO gear was in standard use by Army long range and strategic recon teams by 1970, instead of the Maguire rig. I have had the experience of flying under a Huey in both the Maguire and the STABO rigs.
The SPIE rig is better if you have the lift power because you can pick up a whole team at the same time with one helo. The Army in RVN never used the SPIE system as far as I am aware.
Thanks for the explanation. I would have loved giving it a try.
Funny enough, just last year I saw a PG&E worker being STABOed from one electrical tower to another. It looked like a civilian Loach.
Cheers!
One advantage of he STABO rig is that the ropes to which the Y-harness was attached were about 150 feet long. Thus, when attached to their sandbag weights, they could penetrate through 100+ feet of jungle canopy. I don’t think the SPIE ropes were that long. We also used “rope” ladders to insert and extract people. They were made of aluminum treads and three strands of steel cable. One roll went out each door of a Huey. Maguire, STABO and the ladders were also used by MACV-SOG strategic recon teams, as well. All these systems were a means to get people in and out of an area where there was no LZ into which a helo could land because of the jungle canopy.
Boot to the head!
Ah, Dr. Demento and the days of my misspent youth.
Something like the finest Tae Kwon Leep video I could find where Ed Gruberman is VERY much like Oscar Rodriguez!
When conducting a man overboard drill aboard ship, The “oscar” flag is hoisted on the side of the ship where the victim went overboard and a dummy is tossed into the water on that side to be recovered. The dummy is referred to as Oscar. How appropriate.
Buckeye Jim;
You beat me to it. I remember Oscar wore the orange jump suit and when thrown overboard, one of the look outs threw smoke into the drink to mark the spot then this is a drill this is a drill, man overboard port/starboard side away the starboard motor whaleboat came over the 1 MC. I was also the watch stander boat engineer/stern hook on those 1960’s motor whale boats.
All he had to say was “I served in the 1st Recon Battalion as an RTO” and he would have been legit; but lying embellishing turds can’t stop there, can they?
I’ve thought about this in other situations – I’m thinking the limited bling of the unit logo is OK if he served in a support role, but the wings and scuba bubble are not appropriate unless he earned them.
If an individual served with a SEAL Team in a support role, the emblem for the team may be OK if they explain it when asked. The SEAL Trident conveys something entirely different, however.
That’s just me. Others may feel differently.
For me personally, I don’t really wear bling so would never consider any of it. I have it hanging in a closet and may wear it if I don’t have anything clean.
Folks are smoking his Book of the Face page. Wish I could see his expression when he sees it.
As of right now, his FB is still wide open. Go for it
Wonder if he attended Frank Sulimans funeral the other day.
Same NJ area.
26Limabeans:
Oscar Rodriguez, Jr. seems to be so into himself that I doubt he attended SGT Suliman’s Funeral.
Most people that have that type of Personality Disorder only care about themselves, want attention from others and lack empathy.
