Rendered speechless
April 2nd, 2012
Someone sent this to TSO from Don Shipley’s Facebook pictures. There’s nothing I can say, except that he looks relatively familiar;
ADDED: Today’s phony is dedicated to AFWife (I think, because she’s one of the few people on the internet I know by her real name), who is celebrating her birthday and asked for her own phony.

Class A, red cravat, blue jeans. Totally SAT, but I don’t think the cane is authorized by AR 670-1.
April 2nd, 2012 at 8:52 am
I do believe we’ve found Run-DMC’s honorary cousin – One-DMF.
April 2nd, 2012 at 8:55 am
It looks like there are 7 Bronze Star Medals, three Purple Heart Medals and five Good Conduct Medals. The boy spent some money. I still think I know this guy.
April 2nd, 2012 at 8:56 am
Holy flippin’ hell….is that the .mil version of Bedazzling?
He looks like a North Korean General.
April 2nd, 2012 at 8:58 am
What. The. Fuck.
April 2nd, 2012 at 8:58 am
Wow. Just wow.
April 2nd, 2012 at 8:59 am
And despite his best efforts, no one is paying attention to him in that photo! Do you think this was going thru his head: “Once I go from six Bronze Stars to seven, people will really respect me!”? Hahaha I think he needs the cane to prevent from tipping over with all that metal on his one side!
April 2nd, 2012 at 9:06 am
That Spanish Field Marshall look ain’t cuttin’ it.
April 2nd, 2012 at 9:07 am
I have no respect for a government that lets clowns like this parade around disrespecting our uniforms and medals. A lame example of “free speech.”
April 2nd, 2012 at 9:11 am
Can’t be Soviet – their oldsters don’t have beards like that. Oh, oh, I got it! He’s the percussion section on the new ZZ Top video!
April 2nd, 2012 at 9:11 am
My heartfelt thanks goes out to great American Poser, without him I was without anyone to laugh at today.
April 2nd, 2012 at 9:12 am
Holy shit–Jeff Ross dressing up as Gaddafi for the Charlie Sheen roast looked more credible than this douchenozzle.
April 2nd, 2012 at 9:12 am
Oh fuck, Now Santa is going to get hit with stolen valor
April 2nd, 2012 at 9:13 am
Well, there was that time Santa took fire and lost Blitzen coming into Detroit a few Christmases ago…
April 2nd, 2012 at 9:14 am
And correct me if I’m wrong, but are those women’s sergeant stripes on his jacket?
April 2nd, 2012 at 9:18 am
I realize that I should be angry, but all I can do is laugh. I do hope someone laughed in his face for me before beating him with his cane.
And at least he’s wearing the Black.

YGBSM.
Whereinthehell was this cretin seen?
April 2nd, 2012 at 9:24 am
Ok, round 37 of the giggle fits – I just hovered over the photo and saw what you named it.
April 2nd, 2012 at 9:25 am
It looks like a Ranger tab above his 101st combat patch. Always a plus to have the tab on both shoulders.
April 2nd, 2012 at 9:28 am
That is awesome.
Unless Tim Kennedy and Brian Stann show up to move the boxes and furniture out of my house, this will be the best present I get all day.
April 2nd, 2012 at 9:31 am
He’s got at least 6 years worth of combat hashes on that right sleeve. That’s a helluva lot of time in country for an E-5.
April 2nd, 2012 at 9:31 am
Let me guess….he’s taking collections for a “veteran’s organization”.
%$#@!
April 2nd, 2012 at 9:39 am
Is that an Army female beret he’s wearing?
April 2nd, 2012 at 9:44 am
Old Trooper: I counted 9 hashes – wouldn’t that be 4 1/2 years?
April 2nd, 2012 at 9:49 am
Besides his being a total ass for wearing all the actual individual medals (vice one copy of each w/devices), the thing that makes me wonder the most is the 2 Soldier’s Medals (they don’t seem to be DFCs). The Soldier’s Medal is fairly rare to begin with – and I’d guess it’s DAMNED rare for one individual to have two.
And yeah, the Ranger Tab on the right sleeve (and on the Beret) is pretty damned stupid, too.
April 2nd, 2012 at 10:25 am
Is he wearing blue jeans???
April 2nd, 2012 at 10:27 am
Jonn #3: I still think I know this guy.
Haven’t played Army since I was a kid… so it ain’t me!
April 2nd, 2012 at 10:30 am
@24: I counted 9 as well, but then I noticed that there is a crease in his sleeve that may be hiding another one.
Either way, this is one badass mofo!!
April 2nd, 2012 at 10:37 am
You know, the Nazis had pieces of flair they made the Jews wear….
April 2nd, 2012 at 10:37 am
Nah, I think I know who it is–Soup Sandwich fell into a time warp and woke up 20 years later ala Rip Van Winkle.
April 2nd, 2012 at 10:43 am
TSO–Look, we want you to express yourself, ok? If you think the bare minimum is enough, then ok. But some people choose to wear more and we encourage that, ok? You do want to express yourself, don’t you?
April 2nd, 2012 at 10:44 am
NHS- It was on yesterday, and that movie is still an absolute classic.
April 2nd, 2012 at 10:46 am
Yeah, look–I don’t need 37 pieces of flair to express myself, I just need one…
April 2nd, 2012 at 10:54 am
Holy crap, it’d be easier to count what’s NOT on that jacket, lol.
April 2nd, 2012 at 11:53 am
@24: Oops, my bad, that should have said 5 years instead of 6. I hit the wrong key when I was typing and didn’t catch it until now.
April 2nd, 2012 at 12:54 pm
Cut the guy some slack. It must be difficult to square away the uniform when you have been up all day and night drinking … all alone … in your underwear … in a mobile home trailer … with 17 cats!
April 2nd, 2012 at 1:36 pm
HOLY SHIT BATMAN! This guy makes MSG Soup Sandwich look like a pussy.
April 2nd, 2012 at 1:42 pm
Wow. He can probably kill all of us with JUST HIS MIND! (c8
April 2nd, 2012 at 2:07 pm
I thought yesterday was April Fool’s Day?!?
April 2nd, 2012 at 2:24 pm
W — T — Ever lovin’ — M — F??!!!
The most funny Epic Fail yet.
Where WAS this reject from a peacock farm??!!
April 2nd, 2012 at 2:42 pm
I don’t even know what to say…some people have no shame.
April 2nd, 2012 at 5:14 pm
I DO recognize both *critters* in that photo link….Checked the PMO’s *most unwanted* list…Neither of you made it. Go figure!
April 2nd, 2012 at 5:21 pm
Oh yes, Happy Birfday airforce wife….That there is real funny shit, don’t care who ya are.
April 2nd, 2012 at 5:27 pm
Hero of the Soviet Union… Call of Duty Style.
April 2nd, 2012 at 5:48 pm
I guess, considering all the old boy has been through, I shouldn’t worry that he missed a couple buttons on his jacket. Jackass.
April 2nd, 2012 at 8:00 pm
Happy birthday AFWife!
Too funny!
April 2nd, 2012 at 11:30 pm
I’m still speechless. what a fucking retard
April 3rd, 2012 at 6:24 am
A public punch in the mouth is needed on this one. I don’t care how old this clown is.
April 3rd, 2012 at 6:40 am
I think a celebrity death match between Santa and MSG Soup Sandwich in order… Only then will we know who the baddest mofo really is!
April 5th, 2012 at 6:34 am
[...] you scroll down from this picture, you’ll see that Mary has a name for the guy who rendered me speechless, the other day, but not enough to ID him [...]
April 5th, 2012 at 7:15 am
All you muggles should leave Dumbledore alone. He could ninja your ass and then fly off on his AH-64 Apache-broomstick.
April 5th, 2012 at 10:30 am
Infantry cord with a Cannon cocker cravat. Geez can’t this f#ckstick get ANYTHING right? LOL
April 5th, 2012 at 11:26 am
OEF_Veteran, look at the costume he’s wearing, do you think he can or even cares what his costume looks like?
June 19th, 2012 at 8:10 pm
im kinda shocked he isnt sporting a 1st cav patch
August 2nd, 2012 at 7:35 am
[...] Yeah, probably not so much, but nobody can track his ass down. This silly sack of shit is wearing so much stuff on his left side it looks like he has palsy. As one person noted, he looks like the product of a 3-way between Soup [...]

I just found out about this website, and I’ve been reading the bios of the posers. While I was never in the military, I grew up next door to Fort Knox, and I had many good friends who were military. His amazing mess of medals seems pretty easy to spot as false. What concerns me more is the more detailed stories, where falsehoods were pulled off successfully. I appreciate what you veterans have done for our country. Medals are supposed to be a representation of honor and sacrifice. A good friend was career navy. He has a rather impressive collection of patches and rank insignia, ranging from entry rank, all the way to senior non-comm, with appropriate ribbons to match. He earned every one. To put jokers like these in the same category is an insult. I just wanted to voice my support of your website, and state my appreciation to the vets. I worked in higher education for many years; a field where we see very occasional false representations. For the record, my doctoral degree is from a real university! I didn’t go out and buy the diploma somewhere…
September 19th, 2012 at 9:36 am
This guy is to funny for words. What’d he do? Go to the second hand store,buy an “Army coat” and hang buncha stuff on it?
September 28th, 2012 at 10:26 pm
Chronos, the Shit Sack, Titan Turd!
I wonder if he has any medals/decorations from the Peloponnesian War(s)?
Clown.
October 8th, 2012 at 11:07 pm
Do they sell those Class A Jackets by the Medal or the pound???
January 17th, 2013 at 1:08 am
On the Fake Warrior Project site, it gives the name he used and the location this picture was taken, but I can’t remember where on the site his picture was located
January 19th, 2013 at 6:51 pm
Fake warrior site gives his name as Robert Vaughn, and says he has been seen in Charlotte
February 11th, 2013 at 6:17 am
What!!! It’s John Rambo
