Someone sent us their work on this Jerry Lopez<\/a> fellow. He claims to have been a Recon Marine in Vietnam, that he was awarded the Navy Cross, the Silver Star, the Navy and Marine Corps Medal, a Bronze Star for Valor and four Purple Heart Medals as an 0369 Infantry Leader. He wears the rank of a Gunnery Sergeant (E-7), he also claims that he was disabled due to his war injuries;<\/p>\n

He also claims SEAL Training.<\/p>\n

Well according to his records, he did serve in Vietnam as an Admin Clerk in the Headquarters and Supply Company of the 10th Motor Transport Battalion, May 1968 – July 1969. In fact, during the 14 years that he served in the Marine Corps, all his time was spent as an admin clerk and a Drill Instructor. His records do show one Purple Heart and a Combat Action Ribbon – but I wonder how an admin clerk in a headquarters company of a Motor-T unit could get a Purple Heart and a CAR. Actually, I don’t wonder;<\/p>\n

But there’s no SEAL Training, no Recon Training, no parachute training, no scuba training, no Navy Cross, no medals whatsoever for valor. He left the Marine Corps as a staff sergeant (E-6) not a gunnery sergeant (E-7).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
