The round Marine

Chris sent us this picture so we can put out an APB on the turd roller;

He looks like may have eaten a Marine once, in fact there might a couple buried in his neck fat. What’s with the phonies thinking they can get away with wearing the SEAL Trident lately? And isn’t the EOD badge an Army badge? I guess the boy thinks he can mix and match service appurtenances like Soup.

Anyway, someone must know this guy out there. We need a name and an address so we can pull his records and embarrass the shit out of him. But we’ll never be able to embarrass him as much as he’s embarrassed us.

    The EOD badge is one of the few cross branch badges, like basic jump wings. Of course, he’s not wearing them in the right place, but he seems to have more unifom below his ribbons than above.

    Easy, boys and girls, this one is a total badass. You can tell by the all business, no bullshit stare he’s got cookin. He’s one of those Recon SEAL Marines (one of the rarest species on the planet and should be on the endangered species list).

    In all seriousness; I’m not even a Marine and I can see punk ass poser all over this chump. Starting with his gig line and fourragere. Then; he has a ribbon rack that would make him one of the most decorated military service persons in history (a 12 row rack is totally awesome!). I believe I see an Army ribbon, or two, in that rack, also.

    Maybe a few real Marines can meet up with him and square his shit.

And let’s not get into the MOH BELOW the Navy Cross, pretty much every award given out since the 1950′s, V device on the wrong side of his NAM (and frankly, I can’t think of the last time someone got a NAM with “V”), PUC/NUC/MUC out of order, Kuwait Liberation with no SWA, the list goes on, and on, and on…

    Interesting, he has an American Defense Service Ribbon that was only issued to those on active duty between 39-41. He looks kind of young for a pre WWII Vet don’t ya think. No other WWII Campaign ribbons, I guess he was stateslide during WWII. Also, No Vietnam ribbons either. He must have went into hiding and then awarded himself the valorious awards during the Gulf War. I hope this turd is identified.

    You want to be the guy who says, “There I was, no shit–out on OP, doing a lockout from the Forward Escape Trunk with a K-Bar knife I borrowed from the SEALs who were too scared to go with me…”

    And then a real bubblehead would go, “Yeah, there you were, cranking, mashing trash, scrubbing shitters, you lying ass fuck.”

    For the record, my first underway on my first boat was an OP. I mess-cranked for 45 days of it.

    To be honest, I think a lot of the reason nobody impersonates bubbleheads is because we DON’T get a lot of publicity–and I’m totally fine with that.

    A few questions as I am civilian here. Why do you guys always call someone “Soup Sandwich?” Is that an inside joke? And could a Marine earn an Army badge or medal or whatever it is called. (The EOD thing). And could a Marine, in theory, be a SEAL as they both part of the Department of the Navy?

    Why a guy who actually did serve would lie like this is beyond me. What a shame.

    Only if he was 1–in the Navy, 2–had attended BUD/S, 3–earned his Trident. However, it would be strange for someone to have been a SEAL, leave the Navy, and come back into the Marines. If there is such a case, I’m not aware of it, although people leave one service and join another all the time, as some have pointed out, there are a few people floating around out there with Navy dolphins (submariner) and CIB’s.

    Kevin–I’ve seen his “apologies”. None sound particularly remorseful, and as the one on the 1/9 page shows, it just gets into deeper bullshit, and he even claims his records won’t show his service in DS/DS, even though he was FORCED to retire as a GySgt after his court-martial in 1990.

    Sorry, but no. Gugle hasn’t apologized for jack yet.

  51. 51
    Kevin Says:

    At the risk of sounding like I’m defending Larry Gugle, he wore ribbons he didn’t rate (and was reduced from E-8 to E-7 as a result), but he had them on properly. He was a squared away poseur (he was an ‘fing DI after all).
    After retiring, he continued the charade and promoted himself to Sergeant Major. Technically, he should have posed as a Master Gunnery Sergeant, since he was a radio tech.
    If the guy above was ever in the service, I’ll bet he never made it through the basic training of whatever service he attempted.

    @51: A Marine’s MOS does not determine if they become a SgtMaj; any GySgt can express a desire and, if selected become a 1stSgt. After that, the next promotion is SgtMaj. Otherwise, GySgts who do do not desire consideration for or do not get selected for 1stSgt can still be selected for MSgt; following that, MGySgt.
    None of which changes the fact that this guy is a total bag of s**t, regardless of his true identity.

    NH Sparky,
    Regarding your comment @39, there is at least one Marine on active duty who is also a SEAL, as I went to OCS with him back in the summer of 1999. He was an enlisted SEAL and wanted to fly for the Navy, but they told him he was too old to go to flight school. He got an age waiver from the Marine Corps and is now an F/A-18 pilot. The Navy’s loss is the Marine Corps’ gain b/c he’s a great guy and a damn good officer. And, BTW, the Marine Corps told him that the Trident was not authorized for wear on the Marine Corps uniform. That may’ve changed in the ensuing years, but he was not allowed to wear it when we graduated and got commissioned.

    Oh, you guys have it all wrong. He was just trying to honor those that actually earned those medals and knew he was one of very few of the willing that could fill out a uniform big enough to fit every ribbon ever made on it.

    You should know that he spent HIS OWN money having a custom uniform made and buying all those ribbons.

    And he HAD planned on eventually arranging them into the proper order of precedence to replace those crazy posters at the PX, with biological art.

    @#11 AdirondakPatriot-it’s not a aguillette. It’s a French fouriegeurre. More commonly known as the pogey rope. I’ve still got mine from my time with 5th Marines. However the one I was issued way back when (1987) had a black tip. And it is worn with service and dress uniforms-under the epaulet on service and over the epaulet on dress (eppaulets are sewn down on dress blues. Regardless, this fat fucktard probably never was a Marine. let alone a CAP or even a cub scout

    An old friend from the Corps forwarded this to me today. For the record, I don’t think the guy above is Larry Gugle, for reasons already covered in earlier comments. For one thing, except for the moustache, he doesn’t even look much like Gugle. Gugle is older and his moustache was graying even when those old photos at some of the links above were taken. Gugle’s ears are different, his face is longer than this guy’s, and his mouth is wider. Plus, when Gugle was faking it he did a much more credible job than this moron. A fucking Trident? Seriously?

    I am not here to defend Gugle. But if people mistakenly assume that the mystery of this guy’s identity is solved, it’s less likely we’ll ever find out who he really is. And I’d like to see that happen.

I have to imagine a real Marine lying about medals would still know wearing twice as many ribbons as Chesty Puller as well as decorations from other services might raise a few eyebrows. Especially since it seems he was deceiving legit combat vets, not idiots in bars willing to pay for his drinks.

    tommysgirl Says:

    I just found your site and I have to say I love it. I was married for far more years than I would like to admit to a man who constantly lied about his military service. After a time I figured it out (years of supposed service didn’t add up) but still his family continued to help him lie! It made me cringe each time I would hear him claim some glory I knew he had not earned. It wasn’t until his father died that I finally found his “less than honourable” discharge papers proving that he was indeed a liar. Even after I confronted him with what I knew he still tried to convince me that his lies were true! *BARF* Now I am dating a real hero, a man who served honourably for 22 years and rarely speaks about his service. Sad thing is, that when he told me that he was a Marine, I found myself disbelieving it, until I was able to confirm it independently. Such a shame that liars like this caused me to ever doubt his integrity. :( Anyway, keep doing what you do. Great job!

    Just a thought, when you get a picture like this and want to try and find where it has been used online (such as a facebook or myspace profile) so you can track the lying as*holes down, you can try searching for it through a reverse image search engine such as http://www.tineye.com/ or upload it and then do a google image search using the image’s url. Once you get the results, hover over the picture and click similar. It will then take you to a page which allows you to search by image, and it will find all exact copies of the photo in question available online. Again, keep up the good work on calling out these as*clowns on their Bullsh*t!

    Yeah, Jimmy. Probably have. Anyone who claims to be a Marine who has never been one is obviously mentally ill and needs lots of help. Claiming an outfit such as we see above is a Halloween costume is even crazier.

    So nuttier than a fruitcake is probably a good diagnosis from the peanut gallery. Also an opportunistist freak if he uses the Marine uniform to defraud others of anything of value, to include anything of monetary value and/or good will.

I can’t believe how many posers and wanna bees are out there and the ones who kill me are the ones who actually served and had good career and have some stats and medals that a lot of soldiers would love to be able to have earned in there careers. but greed and the spotlight fuel these fantasies and well mental illness as well I guess. All I can do is Lmao at these jokers and also be pissed off at the same time. I served honorably in the Army and I am proud to have served I never had a high speed career as I was a mechanic. but I know that job I did as a mechanic was just as vital as the boys I supported in theCAV. But I don’t ever feel the need to embellish or straight up lie about stuff. Call me a POG or whatever but I did my part in the team and I may not have been kicking in the doors or blowing up everything in sight but I know what I did was critical to Tue mission and I am proud that I was able to be apart of it no matter what my job was.

    I just had to mention this. This fat pork barrel is wearing a French Fouragere. The problem is this. He would NEVER wear it other than when he was in the 5th and 6th Marine regiments. This Fouragere has a very unusual reason. Unlike the Army that keeps adding junk to their uniform, sorry guys, LOL, if you are actually in one of these two regiments, you rate this, but the minute you transfer out, you leave it behind. It does not go with you.

    I am new to this website but love it. Your Round Marine lives in Las Cruces, New Mexico. I do not know his name. He showed up at the Marine Corps League USMC Birthday Ball just last November. I was there and saw him. Right away something looked fishy. It turns out the head of the local League already had a photo of him he got off the internet and was keeping an eye out. At the Ball was an active duty Navy Senior Chief and an Army Command Sergeant Major plus lots of us former Marines who confronted him. He said he was authorized to wear the Seal Trident from a law that President Reagan put out that Marine snipers could wear the Trident. Wow. I did notice the WW II ribbons and I noticed that he had a Combat V on his Combat Action Ribbon. That was new too. He was told he could not come in which pissed off his wife too. He muttred “30 years in the Marine Corps and I am treated this way.” He was told to go get his DD214 and if it showed all the decorations he would be allowed in with an apology. Funny thing is he showed back up and his wife and son showed the DD214 to the security guard. The guard was a Nam Marine like me and I was told that it showed that he had been an E5 in the Marines. He was turned away. I did not get a chance to talk to him myself but was there during questioning. I am not familiar with any ribbons after Nam but that Trident and CAR with the Combat V convinced me.

He apparently has flashed a DD214 that showed Vietnam service at one event (USMC ball in Las Cruses, NM), but we haven’t been able to find anyone who got a copy or memorized the name and/or other particulars.
