After 20 years in the U.S. Army, I was forced to retire due to the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy that forbids gay men and women from serving openly in the US Military.
At the HRC (Human Rights Campaign) Equality Ball at the Mayflower Hotel, those of us who have been a vocal force against this damaging and unconstitutional policy are quite confident that our new Commander-in-Chief President Barack Obama will sign an Executive Order to abolish the “DADT” policy. Yes We Can!
Peace,Michael Patrick McManus, Lieutenant Colonel, US Army, Retired
And, more with shifting retirement dates. Don’t you just love a blog swarm?
While stationed in Frankfurt, Germany in 1986, then-Sergeant McManus served as Then-General Colin Powell’s personal bodyguard and interpreter; Sergeant McManus came out of the closet as a gay man in 1993 at a Memorial Weekend Requiem in San Francisco honoring the Unknown Lesbian/Gay/Bisexual Soldiers
U.S. Army Captain Michael McManus revealed that General Colin Powell knew he was gay while McManus was serving as his personal bodyguard, and that it made no difference to the general. While stationed in Frankfurt, Germany in 1986, then Sergeant McManus served as Powell’s bodyguard and interpreter, and it was during that time that Sgt. McManus “came out” to him, confiding to him that he was gay.
According to McManus, Gen. Powell, who was at that time the commander of the U.S. Army Fifth Corps, replied, “What do you want me to do about it? As long as youare doing your job well, that does not matter to me. And you are doing an excellent job.”
Capt. McManus came out of the closet as a gay man publicly on Saturday May 29, 1993 at a Memorial Weekend Requiem in San Francisco honoring the Unknown Lesbian/Gay/Bisexual Soldiers. The event was sponsored by the San Francisco Area chapter of the GLAAD and endorsed by many organizations, including the Alexander Hamilton Post of the American Legion.
McManus chose the San Francisco requiem event as the time to come out publicly because he “can no longer be a part of an organization that promotes and supports such blatant discrimination. It is time for people to realize that sexual orientation is a fundamental part of a person’s identity, just as being Asian or African-American.”
Capt. McManus [in 1993] planned on being vocal about the military’s gay and lesbian ban. He served in the U.S. Army Reserves and holds a top secret security clearance. Still fighting the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy, Michael retired from the US Army in Feb. 2008 at the rank of LTC (Lieutenant Colonel).
You will notice that this no-talent asclown claims to be buddhist above. Well From the Great Donovan, we find this:
We have received information from the office of HH Dalai Lama that Tenzin Chophak ( Michael Mc Manus) did not have an Audience with His Holiness Dalai Lama on Oct.14 ’99, at which he said he had received the Tsogyal Dzambala Practice, to benefit Land of Medicine Buddha..
While at LMB we gave Tenzin Chophak more than adequate opportunity to improve his work perfomance and in no way was he mistreated.

January 18th, 2010 at 3:31 pm
Man, this guy hasn’t got a clue about the amount of flak about to riddle him. I also agree that he likely never served. First off, he doesn’t look old enough to have put in 20 years, and to not have a clue about all the awards he was wearing is, well.. indicative of a true blue falcon crapweasel.
Seriously, I just don’t get these guys, but I certainly WANT to see him get his just deserts.

Apparently one of the local Houston TV stations caught wind of this story through CDR Salamander’s blog and is all over this. Dude’s gonna start wishing he hadn’t been such an attention whore.
January 18th, 2010 at 4:14 pm
Retired in ’08 after 20 years of service. Was a Sergeant stationed in Germany in ’86. How many years does it usually take to get promoted to Sergeant? Something a bit off there.
January 18th, 2010 at 4:17 pm
You literally couldn’t make it up if you tried–except this guy HAS! One has GOT to give him points for originality, if something less than for total fidelity to either hearldric accuracy or personal honor–deductions for that–as well as style points. At least he could have been as 1930s “forward fashion” stylish as the people that costumed Flash Gorden and Ming the Merciless for those old art deco-inspired B&W movies. (Even our favorite villain Ming had a more rakish goatee)
January 18th, 2010 at 4:22 pm
Nucsnipe, I know those general officers are a vain group…maybe he color coordinates for which ribbons and awards he plans to wear?
January 18th, 2010 at 4:25 pm
Brass: Apparently he has perfected time travel as well. If he retired in 08 after 20 he entered in 88. So figure 4 years to Sgt, so he traveled back in time in 92 to 86.
January 18th, 2010 at 4:26 pm

I’m sure his defense will be that if Patton and MacArthur could fashion their own uniforms (And Eisenhower too–hence the “Eisenhower Jacket”) so can he. Unfortunately for him he isn’t within the next Galaxy’s distance of being either of the aforementioned three….

Quick note:
At the time this guy says he was at DLI (defense language institute) you couldn’t “test out” of languages.
also he says during his time at DLI “Special Operation Forces w/ a speciality in Personal Protection Details, Intelligence and PSYOPS (Psychological Operations) – they don’t teach any of that stuff at DLI either.
this loser needs a dirt nap.

I think the feathered wings are definitely his look. Too bad he just didn’t stick to wearing those to the party. I’m sure he would’ve livened things up a bit.
January 18th, 2010 at 6:25 pm
The lapels of his dress mess in the photo are royal blue which the aviation color. Infantry is a powder blue shade. So he couldn’t even get that right.
January 18th, 2010 at 6:44 pm
He can’t even get the wings right.

Are we sure he is not with a Village People tribute group?
January 18th, 2010 at 7:53 pm
Dammit, I hate to be a pain but the lapel is oriental blue. MI is the branch. And I’m pretty sure he DID serve and that he did go to DLI. The rest is ALL pure BS. I went to DLI and spent 21 years in MI and I dealt with crapsacks like him all the time. Occupational hazard in MI…
January 18th, 2010 at 8:08 pm
I think I agree with you FOMSG. I think he did serve and was at DLI. All that other shit, not so much.
Again, the one that pisses me off is the CIB. The others as well, but I leave to others getting pissed about people claiming awards they got, like the PH.
I have contacted DLI and hope to hear back.
January 18th, 2010 at 8:09 pm
BTW- just a note, but apparently nothing on military.com or AKO on this guy.
January 18th, 2010 at 8:11 pm
Maybe he’s a soldier like Tom Hanks was a naval officer in Philadelphia?
January 18th, 2010 at 8:33 pm
And storming the Beachs at Normandy at the same time.
January 18th, 2010 at 8:44 pm
He must a “PSYOPS” expert, considering spell PSYOP correctly.
January 18th, 2010 at 8:54 pm
Ok, he served, we’ll give him that. A purple heart (that one pisses me off the most), the CIB, and 2 DSC’s? Really? Not to mention the silver stars (anyone see clusters?) and multi-national qualification badges.
That SAS badge will hopefully get him hospitalized if they catch up with him.
January 18th, 2010 at 8:59 pm
I have a feeling he’ll earn that Purple Heart before the week is out …
January 18th, 2010 at 9:27 pm
This is starting to get real fun……..
January 18th, 2010 at 9:35 pm
Curmudgeon…..
Will he get a Purple Heart, or a Purple Ass? My money’s on the latter…
January 18th, 2010 at 9:42 pm
Take it easy on the POS of folks, he spent, near as I can figure from his own figures, 15 or 16 years in grade,middle and high school. Last I checked, most people do it in 12, maybe 13 years. But he then zipped thru a bachelor’s, masters and PH. D in 17 years, in Physchology, no less? And, he dresses like a fruit fly? Wonder if he ever thought of applying all of that there learning to himself? He could have made a fortune writing about himself, and would only have to split the cash with his other two personalities, the gay soldier and the VS model.
And I hope that the SAS, and anyone else who has an urge to do so, catch up with his sorry ass.
January 18th, 2010 at 10:09 pm
When I was in FRANKFURT in 1986…(That’s right,….I WAS THERE!)… I don’t remember seeing Colin Powell there. I remember some BIG White Guy named…uh…GEN JOWLAN or JOUWLAN or JOULAN. THe guy was a gigantic. Also, “V” corps headquarters was located in the ABRAMS complex. It would be easy to test him. All I need to ask him is “what kind of elevator system does the building have. (THe elevator system is so specialized that if he wasn’t there, he would never answer it right.
There was also something *special* about the fifth floor.
Anyway, while I was there I met some people in “PSD” which stood for “PHYSICAL SECURITY DETACTHMENT” NOT …Personal Security Detail.
January 18th, 2010 at 10:12 pm

ONe last thing, during my years in the service I have accumulated a few medals of my own…..and each and every one of them came with ORDERS OF AUTHORIZATION.
I wonder if this pos can provide his orders?
January 18th, 2010 at 10:20 pm
Why did I just know this guy was a rear tunnel rat
January 18th, 2010 at 10:22 pm
UpNorth, thanks for the tip about taking it easy on the smoldering pile of dogshit, and I appreciate you attempting to keep everyone’s blood pressure in check, however, I hope you don’t mind if I don’t take your advice. I think whatever he did, whether he served, or not (I’m still not convinced since the little bastard can’t even get a uniform right), it doesn’t matter to me. He has desecrated the honor of every swinging dick, and woman, that has put on that uniform. He needs to have his junk smash into humus, period, end of story.
January 18th, 2010 at 10:36 pm
I graduated from DLI in 1985 as a Korling. ATT one did not just get assigned a billet as a Krautling unless you had completed Russian first, served a tour and then came back to DLI. [The Germans utilized a lot of Soviet military terms as East Germany was under occupation ATT]. I was 26 years old when I graduated. I just turned 52.
If he joined at 18, completed Russian and advanced schooling [18-24 months], served a tour [2-3 years] returned to take German [9 months], served another tour [2-3 years], were looking at nearly 9 years of service which would make him as old as me.
I hope the FBI crushes his nuts and makes peanut butter out of them.
January 18th, 2010 at 10:36 pm
Oh, well, poor fella. This is what “The General” wasaspiring towith those black wings.
Now, why is it that Steven Segal always gets mixed up with this crap? The way I see it, “The General” was angling for his own reality TV show for the ‘kinder, gentler’ Military Channel, called, My Little Wings And Other Army Stories.
January 18th, 2010 at 11:20 pm
Awww… he took down his Facebook page. I was kinda hoping to amuse myself reading the comments people left on his wall!
January 18th, 2010 at 11:36 pm
I am…amazed. I mean, what on earth? What was all that? Have the aliens landed?
I don’t think I have the mental capacity for weirdness to fully comprehend whatever it is that guy was/is up to.
That didn’t just max out the weirdometer, it flat-out broke it.
Are you sure this isn’t something related to bringing back the X-files TV series or something?
January 18th, 2010 at 11:39 pm
OldTrooper, I should have posted my snark alert with my post, I was really going for the fact that said douchenozzle took an inordinate amount of time to do his schooling, not encouraging anyone to cut him any slack whatsoever. And I concur, his junk should be smashed, hopefully by a squad of people who’ve actually served honorably.
There is one part of his profile that I’m positive is true, he has “been ALL around the world”. And that weren’t no elephant he saw.

January 19th, 2010 at 12:57 am
First post. Awesome blog. I read it every day.
This guy is hilarious. Out of all of his obvious BS, the thing that struck me was his claim to have a “specialty” in “PSYOPS.”
As an actual 37F graduate of the USAJFKSWCS (he leaves the United States Army off of that name, strike one) I can tell you that the faux pas of referring to the MOS as PSYOPS with an S at the end will get you smoked hardcore and you will never forget to always refer to it as PSYOP.

I’ve never been a military man, but I have an abiding interest in Buddhism.
There is no way this guy was ever a Buddhist monk. Add that to his fakery.
January 19th, 2010 at 2:51 am
I am glad you guys outted this douchebag. Whether or not this guy ever served, he is a disgrace to Humanity as a whole. Plus I am pretty sure he never served. He should be sent to Gitmo and locked in a dark room with nothing but a stool, a rope, (instructions on how to make a noose since I am sure he would never in a million figure it out himself) while being forced to listen to Barney songs 24 / 7.
Surprise surprise that this guy was at the party for the douchenozzle mayor of Beantown.
January 19th, 2010 at 6:22 am
I suspect he spent some time in uniform, but not enough to really understand the timelines or requirements for all the baubles he has padded his uniform and resume with. You all know these guys, they just aren’t quite there even in service. Between the 2004 photo (FA Red) and the new one he has picked up quite a few badges including a second award of the CIB which is not awarded outside of infantry let alone MI or FA. I suspect that red was flashy but those cannon cockers are way too talkative about the technical aspects of the trade so he switched to MI, murky, dark, I can’t really tell you I look at satellite photos of Nork dirt holes…less questions. It ties in well with the CIA pin.
The LTC rank on his resume is also pretty rank. It takes three years in grade to retire as a LTC. The average LTC today will gain that possibility at 20 years of service, but they have a one year advantage to CPT over the good BG(4 years versus his year group at 5). If he were double below the zone to MAJ and LTC then that would have taken him to 19 years of service. But wait, he was enlisted, spent 6 months to 18 months at DLI and would have to go to OCS and all of those schools, airborne, pathfinder etc.
Unless…..he was a direct commission. They do that for shortage specialties like Medical, Dental, Psychology majors. I have helped out more than a few Dentist 04s and others with their uniforms. Great people, but the shake and bake program is a little light on UNIFORMS, DISCIPLINE, or MILITARY CUSTOMS and COURTESY.
January 19th, 2010 at 7:02 am
So in essence, the only medals he didn’t claim was the Defense Of Caprica ribbon while on the Battlestar Galactica, and his starburst cluster from fighting on Hoth?
January 19th, 2010 at 7:21 am
I was so intent on the BS he put on his uniform I missed what is on his resume but didn’t make it to the Blues, TheDonovan picked up on one “What no Ranger Tab?”, the other is more telling,he claims to be Special Forces but does not show the tab.
I know one SF Officer who wears Airborne wings and the SF tab, he has four other badges and tabs. “The others aren’t important enough to bother with.” (pre-2003) I can’t imagine anyone completing the Q-Course not wearing the tab.
A SF SFC I met at AASLT School wore everything. SF, Ranger, Airborne, CBT Diver, Pathfinder etc. (Old BDUs) He wore three per day and they rotated. I asked him why he needed AASLT, and he said he taught it. He was afraid someone might ask him about when he qualified so he needed the badge for appearances. He knew far more than the black hats and they were well trained.
Okay I need to stop, fake, fake, fake. Even if he did serve he pissed all over it. Send him to jail.

This guy is probably the first guy to bad mouth the Military in private, yet will wear a uniform borrowed from Micheal Jackson add a few colorful medals and talk about how tough he is.

He’s wearing a BRITISH SAS insignia on his uniform!
The CIA patch is truly terrific too.
OMG, that’s a combo of laughable, infuriating and pathetic.
January 20th, 2010 at 8:01 pm
Oh, and he’s also in a photo with Steven Segal, who is also a big phony. Segal claims he worked for the CIA and had all kinds of paramilitary training and experience. 2 nutcases side by side.
January 20th, 2010 at 9:51 pm
If this pinhead is a BG then I personally commanded the assault on Normandy. Seriously, he looks like the poster boy for moveon.org. Find him. Arrest him. Convict him.
January 20th, 2010 at 9:54 pm
By the way, doesn’t “Steven Segal” look remarkably like a mannequin/blow-up-doll?
January 20th, 2010 at 10:44 pm
I say instead of the FBI, we buy him a plane ticket that stops at the home station of every unit impersonated. With long layovers at each place. Oh and maybe accidentally e-mail the iteniary to each unit.

Man, oh man! I am a proud graduate of the VA’s drug rehab and now have 6 years clean. You can imagine some of the whoppers I was subjected to while there (6 months, God bless). It’s sad, since as long as you served you are ok with me. Anyhow, NO ONE EVER CAME CLOSE to this prick. I mean, adding a couple jumps, or some cooks saying they were in the unit they supported, eh, I can live with that. This cat needs to do some time in the stripey hole. I still can’t believe my eyes….

Actually, looking at the Segal pic, it looks more and more like a photoshop.

“Vice President of Asian Operations, Samaya, Inc”. According to Manta, a business web site, Samaya, inc. has anywhere from 1 to 4 employees. Dunn & Bradstreet says 2. And it’s a tobacco store. Ballduster just keeps on impressing.

As a 2 time grad of DLI (Korean Basic, 80-81 and Korean Intermediate 85-86) I cannot imagine why anyone would try to fake up a background that included it…
OTOH, that was back when they still had beer in the vending machines in the dayroom stateside, and encouraged you to get shitfaced on the weekend for “stress relief”, so maybe he lost his mind. (And someone should kick his ass, for therapy.)(FWIW, in ’84 DLI was big enough that they annexed the old Letterman hospital at the Presidio of San Fran, but I don’t think German was a language they taught there.)
(And, no,here was no “testing out” of languages at DLI, but it was possible to take the DLPT in other languages than what you were studying.)
January 22nd, 2010 at 11:22 pm
Tested out? Besides Drang’s on the money comment, my mom raised me as a Russian speaker but her dialect was was more like Ukranian/Polish (ethnic Russians from Lvov) and I BARELY passed the DLPT. Anyone with 4 weeks in the Army can see the gaping holes in this goof’s tale. Needs a smack or three…
January 25th, 2010 at 8:01 pm
McAnus?
(I can’t believe nobody else picked up on that.)
January 29th, 2010 at 11:03 am
I was stationed in Berlin as a PL/RU from ’84-’92 with a lot of GM linguists that went to DLI during ’84-’85 and have put out feelers to see if any of them know this douchebag. I’ll let you know if I get any feedback. (I hope his military service is *all* a lie. I just can’t stomach someone who served even a day doing this s&%t!)

The Houston Chronicle (local newspaper) is also covering this story:

My Dad did 2 tours in Korea and 1 in Vietnam; this guy’s not fit to lick my Dad’s boots.
February 10th, 2010 at 5:33 pm
WOW! I actually know this guy! Not only were we fraternity brothers, but we shared a room together in Chiangmai, Thailand. All of us who knew him felt the elevator didn’t go to the top floor, and he talked almost non-stop about his personal relationship with His Holiness Dalai Lama, and that Steven Segal called him all the time.
While we were in Chiangmai from Nov 2003 to Jan 2004, he supposedly received several phone calls from Steven and once a personal email inviting him to go to the world premier of Tom Cruise’s new movie, “The Last Samurai”. Of course he wouldn’t let me see this email.
I eventually had to change the locks on the door and escort him out of the building because I truly feared for my life. A week or so later I moved because I just couldn’t get rid of the feeling he was going to do something.
When this story broke, I wasn’t at the least surprised, but certainly deeply saddened because it showed me without doubt he has deteriorated mentally instead of healed. DANG!

No blue cord? Guy, i have personally made example of two people like you who claimed to be an INF-CPT and a SGT in Iraq. You ask these clueless douche bags imposters unique questions regarding their tours overseas and they will stutter their way to silence.
March 13th, 2010 at 1:37 pm
Lol, the easiest one that works every time is the company XO questions. Deployed? You’ve had two XO’s. As them who their XO was. When they fuck that up, as them who their next XO was. Then ask what unit he rotated in from.
I love it.

This a**hole should be shot!!! During my 24yrs. I never earned a combat ribbon, nor a ribbon of valor! (9/11 wasn’t here yet). These men and women of today, who have earned the right to wear ribbons and/or awards of combat and valor should be held in the highest regards. When I see pictures of the combat dead comming home, it still brings tears to my eyes.
The posers, should get their a** kicked and shot. Then they would know what combat is all about.
Let me train the posers, they turn my stomach!!!!

I know that most people on here are probably Military personal who are are rightfully outraged at his heinous and offensive impersations of a decorated military man, and I am not sure who is homophobic or not on here, but let me tell you that the Gay community should be outraged too. This crazy loon has defiiled upstanding Gay soldiers and the Gay community as well. It is interesting to note that he never mentions IU Bloomington as a place he attended school but he did. He never paid his tuition though and was forced out. He also used to live in Boston and worked at a club called Citi or Warehouse and was arrested there for Arson. He also once maintained that he worked with New Kids on the Block and Jimmy Page as a dancer. I was nearly convinced until he showed me alleged video footage of himself and it was far off in the scene but it was clearly not him. He also conned 300 dollars out of me and stole things from my best friend before I told his sorry sorry arse to never speak to me again. I seriously suspected he had a cocaine addiction ath the time as well. I cannot believe he was still out there conning his way through life. I am so shocked right now. I dated this man for a number of months back in 1990-1991. I was young and a bit naive and I was just one of many many people hurt by this lunatic. I am very glad he is finally in Jail
May 21st, 2010 at 12:58 pm
I’m not in the military nor am I a vet, so I can’t really speak to any of this clown’s military CV, but I do have an in-law that worked for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Cmte. If that one last line of his résumé needs debunked, I’d be happy to check into it. My gut tells me that the background he made up for himself is controversial enough that it would be next to impossible for him to have obtained a visa into the PRC, though.
July 20th, 2010 at 11:59 am
Gosh, all y’all need some “hope” and “change”. Oops. That didn’t work.
This morning the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals announced the Stolen Valor Act is unconstitutional. Since people can now make false claims about their military service, maybe I’ll buy a black robe, award myself the title of “Judge”, and start making up stories about fake court cases. It’s my right under the First Amerndment, after all.
Re-elect nobody.

No, it didn’t. The Federal District Court for Colorado ruled it unconstitutional. There is a monumental difference in precedential value.

OMG…………wow, you seem to skewer this guy with no recourse. I know him personally. During the time that YOU state that you dated him, he was living in Boston/Roxbury. He was dating a man named Bob Gay, sax player for Tommy Page and New Kids on The Block. He was NEVER arrested for arson, as you claim. I was his roommate back at Purdue Uni……………….NOT I.U. Not sure where you got your facts from, but it just sounds like you were someone he rejected, because I DO know that he was close with Bob the Sax player. You might want to get your facts straight. Peace!

Latest on McManus.
He apparently intends to defend himself by claiming that his wearing of the unauthorized decorations was “free speech”.
Well good luck on that – Houston is in the 5th Circuit and is not bound by any of the recent decisions from the 9th Circuit or the Colorado District Court. Those decisions, by the way are being appealed by the Govt – and only relate to the act of lying about receipt of the awards in speech. The wearing of the medals was not addressed in the decisions.

Oh wow! I know someone firsthand that played volleyball with this guy in the Bay Area, CA. MP McDickhead went out to dinner with a group once, ordered steak and lobster while everyone else was ordering pasta bowls and proceeded to suggest the check be “split evenly” which is a dick move but still– when the check-dust cleared ONE person hadn’t paid their $22 at the end of the dinner. Golly, guess who? (He insisted he had, but the people to either side of him say he didn’t.)
I’m not in the military but I have the HIGHEST respect for those who are, and especially those who gave all. I’d rather see a chimp in a military outfit than this POS.
