Once again, our partners at Military Phonies<\/a> send us their work on another SEAL, Billy Webb<\/a>. Of course, in addition to being a SEAL, he was also a sniper, he says;<\/p>\n

He also convinced a local news source<\/a> that he was a SEAL in an article about picking mushrooms, for some reason.<\/p>\n

Yeah, but no. The folks at Military Phonies summarize his records;<\/p>\n

Billy\u2019s DD-214 lists him as a Special Operations Officer \u2013 An Unrestricted Line Officer who is a Special Operations officer by virtue of training in the EOD, DIV\/ SAL, and EOM functional areas and he was NOT listed as Naval Special Warfare Officer (FYI \u2013 it would say SEAL not NSW).<\/p>\n

Billy served in the reserves from in 1978 and 79 and received his commission on August 8, 1981. A review of his records shows that he was NOT a SEAL, he was NOT a sniper, he never attended BUD\/S and had no type of wings (jump or pilot). He did retire as a LCDR (O-4)….<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
