Matthew Beck; tattoo phoniness


Several of you folks sent us this guy’s Facebook page, Matthew Beck. Of course Mary at POW Network was already on him and we’re already waiting on his FOIA, but he’s already sent out some of his “documentation” to folks who’ve been questioning him on his Facebook page. AKO says that he was in 2/3 Infantry at JBLM, but it seems strange to me that someone with all of those tabs would want to go slumming with a bunch of legs.
For example, despite that impressive row of tabs, here’s a picture of him while he was still in the Army in his uniform and there’s no stack of tabs;

He explains that his supervisor, “Daigle”, didn’t like tabs and made everyone take their tabs off their uniforms. Yeah, that would happen. He also claims that this “Daigle” devil made him take off his jump wings, too, but I blew up the picture a bit and the jump wings are there.
Over at the POW Network link, “Daigle” shows up and calls Beck all kinds of liar on Facebook. Ooops. having an open FB page does that to you sometimes.
Anyway, here’s a portion of his DD214 that he sent to someone;

Funny how it cuts off right before the “Block 18″ where we’d get to see all of schools and accoutrements. But, hey, HazMat driver instructor course is just as grueling as Ranger School, right? Since his MOS (11B20) covers his whole period of service and there’s no mention of 18 series or a Victor identifier, it doesn’t look like he was either in Ranger or Special Forces units even without the “Block 18″.
And here’s proof of his secret squirrel creds;
He looks just like a Haji, don’t he? I’m sure no one knew he was a secret squirrel hairless, pale white boy in the clean right-out-of-the-package man-jammies.
And his ERB;

OK, so he was an infantryman, he earned a CIB, a Purple Heart and a Valorous Unit Citation (which is like giving everyone in the unit a Silver Star). Why can’t that be enough?
I wonder if there’ll be a line of folks to volunteer to help him remove those tattoos before that art causes him a serious ass-stomping.

It is sort of impressive in a way……most POS posuers don’t spend that sort of money in pursuit of their fakery.
June 22nd, 2012 at 2:06 pm
Looking at the PULHES (323213) on his ERB makes me raise my eyebrows a bit. Might be relevant in figuring out his penchant for tattoos of tabs, too.
I don’t see his PH on his ERB, either – and that also raises my eyebrows. That ERB is dated well over a year after he returned from his last combat tour. I’d expect his PH to be on there at that point, even if he was wounded near the end of his last combat tour.
The Flag Codes also make me go, “Hmmmmm.” Looks like flags for some kind of derogatory info and weight control after his return from his last tour. And one had dragged on for close to a year without resolution.
Lots of questions here. Will definitely be interested in seeing his FOIA when it comes in.
June 22nd, 2012 at 2:18 pm
Hmmm… tattooing tabs and claiming qualification via tattoos? A power sanding removal will do the trick and serve some justice.
June 22nd, 2012 at 2:26 pm
On his ERB, if you look at the bottom on the assigments, he was at the 507th in Benning for 2 months but the duty titles of Sniper and RIP School are curious, especially since I know sniper school is ran by 2/29th and we all know who runs RIP
June 22nd, 2012 at 2:32 pm
So he claims he performed a halo jump in a man dress? His proof of this is him in a man dress infront of his glass front door with a Christmas wreath over it?
June 22nd, 2012 at 2:33 pm
Also the man boobs or moobs if you will are a skill identifier right?
June 22nd, 2012 at 2:43 pm
@5- that’s not a Christmas wreath, it’s a Ramadan bush. Clearly, you’ve never been “in the shit”.
June 22nd, 2012 at 2:47 pm
Maybe it’s just me, but I call BS on the whole story. He’s got his cord on the wrong soldier in that picture. No way an 11B E-5 would screw that up or someone else in his unit wouldn’t correct him.
June 22nd, 2012 at 2:49 pm
Also, I’m calling shenannigans on this ballsack. This is a blatant ploy to get into this years’ ‘Dusters tourney. The tatts, the Facebook posts, him trash talking his crippled snco… it’s almost too perfect. There’s no way one man can contain such dildocity.
Shenannigans.
June 22nd, 2012 at 2:51 pm
2-3 IN is one of our sister BNs over here right now. I’ve hit up some buddies with this link to see if anyone there recognizes this turd.
Will post results when I get them.
June 22nd, 2012 at 2:56 pm
I meant shoulder not soldier, although I suppose it still applies as originally written as well.
June 22nd, 2012 at 3:14 pm
@8 His cord is on the correct shoulder, it’s not the infantry cord but a French Fourragere (awarded to certain units by French govt for WWI/WWII service)
June 22nd, 2012 at 3:19 pm
Not that it wouldn’t look better around his neck….
June 22nd, 2012 at 3:31 pm
I am sooooo looking forward to this years Duster tourney woohoo! This is my March madness except we have assholes who do this all year long! Can we have a 16 seed take out a 1 seed? Look at the size of this cockholster’s neck in his Class A’s lol. Oh he blended right in alright on that “operation”. Right into that pre-dawn raid on Papa Johns.
June 22nd, 2012 at 3:33 pm
If you’re going to put in the Duster tournament, how about this title: Major Sandbaggger? Or Captain Crunchy Nuts?
Just my creative streak at work.
June 22nd, 2012 at 3:46 pm
fucker gives 2/3 a bad name.
June 22nd, 2012 at 4:18 pm
Wow, that’s a lot of Tabs. I have a bier tab from Germany.
June 22nd, 2012 at 4:31 pm
Actually this is a clinical condition being currently explored by the DVA. CIB, PH and VUA (if all legit) still doesn’t quite fullfil some deeper need.
According to lead VA physco-therapist Dr. Cleotis Whistledick, this young man is a textbook example of NDBF syndrome or as it is commonly called; Needle Dick Bug Fucker.
This almost always manifests itself in the dilutional belief that badges and tabs will increase one’s penis to at least infant size.
Take it from me fat boy, tabs and badges don’t make your dick bigger but fake tabs and badges do make you a bigger dick!
June 22nd, 2012 at 4:35 pm
Haha, NDBF….
June 22nd, 2012 at 4:39 pm
Didn’t that Fakebook post mean to say:
“Pre-op just before they changed my “under the covers” parts to make me “Michelle” as I have so longed to be?”
June 22nd, 2012 at 4:43 pm
Wait a min, COB6 – I thought “Needle Dick the Bug F*cker” was Jonn’s official title for the new leader of North Korea, ‘lil Kim. Hell, I thought we even had an official acronym: ND:tBF. What gives? Did I miss the memo? (smile)

I am not understanding. Alone his record is stud enough….hero to zero in 2.3 seconds.
fuck.
June 22nd, 2012 at 5:43 pm
Are you even allowed to stack tabs anyway? Is there such thing as a sniper tab?
June 22nd, 2012 at 5:47 pm
The tatts just suck.
Who’d he find to do them? Joey the Intern?
Tatts can be fantasy but they should never suck so badly artistically.
June 22nd, 2012 at 6:11 pm
Hondo, not sure about Jonn’s ramblings about dear leader or little dear leader. Might need to check with the VA if the NDBF is trademarked?
Ann, yes you are allowed to stack tabs. At one point most of the guys on my team were triple-canopy guys (SF, RGR, ABN) but no, sniper is not a tab and in my mind at least neither is that bullshit Sapper tab the engineers pulled out of their ass.
And back to my point, in spite of all those tabs and badges, I still stand just as close to the urinal as I always did
And sadly, more frequently these days
June 22nd, 2012 at 6:16 pm
These are the worst type of offenders. Real CIB, Real Purple Heart… wtf? Thats not enough? Selfish Cunt, fucking worse than the guys who just buy uniforms on eBay and walk around the mall. F.
June 22nd, 2012 at 6:32 pm
COB next you’ll tell me that those fancy running suits everyone gets issued now don’t make you run faster.
Thanks for the info. Army regs are waaaay too convoluted
June 22nd, 2012 at 6:38 pm
Never fear Ann. The Marines are just as convoluted to us Army people, too…
June 22nd, 2012 at 6:39 pm
His phone number is: 1 (253) 468-4655
Crack a beer and have fun for a few hours.
June 22nd, 2012 at 7:16 pm
Wow… where to begin? Correct me if I am wrong, but does this fat oxygen thief have a Sniper tab tattooed below his airborne tab. Must have ‘earned’ that when he was on ‘special assignment’ as a scout in the 507th P.I.R.’s ‘airborne hold’ section. Everybody who’s anybody knows only the best of the best get picked up from there. Well, there or RIP/RASP Hold…
I agree with Beretverde,a power sanding of his tattoos is a good place to start. I may be a B8, but I am proud of the fact I made it through Sniper School (Class 01-10). This fat bastard would heat cat on the first stalk lane. Hell, he’d heat cat while going through the ghillie wash!
I had sniper buddies in my class from the Ranger Regimental Reconnaissance Sniper Section that he claims to have been a part of. All of them were the best that regiment had, and they knew it. They were not loud-mouthed ass-hats like this guy is, ever. His timeline on POW network in the sniper’s hide screen captures is another nail in the coffin. Regiment does NOT send anyone to Sniper School unless they made it through Ranger School first. PERIOD.
No B4 identifier is not necessarily a falshood, as there are many who have been in a sniper position who have never gone or graduated sniper school. He claims April 11th, 2001 for a sniper school class date? He wouldn’t have gotten it straight out of basic, regardless what a recruiter might say. And it doesn’t jive with his assignment as a sniper for July 23rd of that year for all of a month before moving to Fort Campbell.
The fact that his ERB states he was in the 507th P.I.R. while assigned as a sniper initially (The unit in charge of Airborne School for you legs)was pretty damn stupid of him to put on his ERB to me. ATRRS only goes back to 2007, but I still know some of the instructors down at Benning, I will gladly call and do a check on his class date.
I guess this dude drank the ‘Rakkasans are the 4th Ranger Battalion’ kool-aid a little too deep when he was assigned to 3-187 at Fort Campbell. An E-5 Platoon sniper and a E-6 Company Sniper? I know for a fact there are no MTOE’d slots for snipers at the platoon or company level in the 101st, sounds like made-up duty positions in other words, but boy don’t they sound ‘high-drag, low-speed’.
Oh, and I have news for you numbnuts. Just because you were on a duty station that had SF at it, or the post that has sniper school at it, does not mean you are entitled to wear the SF tab, or Ranger tab or even the (unofficial) sniper tab. God what a waste of space…
Sorry for the rant, but this kind of hit close to home.
“H-minus, All the way!”
June 22nd, 2012 at 7:54 pm
Like someone said and I have said, I just don’t get why a guy would do this. He had the deployment, the CIB, he raised his hand. Tragic. And no I am not defending him. I am just saying it’s a shame that he needs this to pump himself up.
June 22nd, 2012 at 8:10 pm
Andy Kravetz: this guy may have mental issues. Seriously.
Don’t know what you know about PULHES. It’s a short code the Army uses that gives a person’s gross medical status at a glance. It’s composed of codes for 6 medical readiness (e.g, fitness for duty) factors: Pulmonary, Upper body, Lower body, Hearing, Eyesight, pSychological. Codes range from 1 to 4, with 1 meaning “fully deployable” to 4 meaning “not qualified for retention on active duty”. (Those are not the “book” definitions for codes 1 and 4, but they’re essentially the plain English translation.)
This guy’s PULHES is 323213. A code of 3 in any position means (if I recall correctly) “non deployable” due to a significant medical condition in that physical attribute.
In early 2009, this guy had a 3 for the last position of his PULHES – psychological. That means he had psychological issues significant enough he could not deploy with his unit.
June 22nd, 2012 at 8:31 pm
this guy’s an assweasel…..lol….
And @ “JP”….you had me rolling….lmao!

I was in the same unit as Beck, he’s a fucking liar, and a scumbag. He was flagged for overweight, and adverse action. Can’t remember what his Article 15 was for though. 1SG Daigle would remember.
June 22nd, 2012 at 9:59 pm
Anyone, what is adverse action ?
June 22nd, 2012 at 10:15 pm
Joe, he was a bad player with others, me and Adam have been circling this dumb ass from the get go, the story just keeps getting thicker and thicker, at one point I think he had like 6 PH’s, 2 BSMs,and had grown a Silver Star….real “special” force…
June 22nd, 2012 at 10:21 pm
Adverse Action is “getting in trouble”. Like Article 15′s, etc.
June 22nd, 2012 at 10:22 pm
Adverse action such as ucmj, art. 15, etc.
June 22nd, 2012 at 11:11 pm
He’s so pretty…isn’t he?
Are you guys sure those tatts aren’t actually decals?
June 23rd, 2012 at 12:03 am
Lol @40. Reminds me of the power point ranger piece with the truck and the decals on the truck: “so, I take it you’re a veteran…”
June 23rd, 2012 at 12:06 am
Scalpel, thank you. You are a very funny man.
June 23rd, 2012 at 1:33 am
Aha. a shitbird, who I would be giving “special attention and cmentoring to”.
June 23rd, 2012 at 1:43 am
Maybe I should get a “SNIPER” tab tat. After all, I was the designated “sniper” that was supposed to climb to the top of the sail with an M-14 during “repel boarders” on the Ustafish. Not that I EVER took any kind of special training, or was even that good a shot. It was just a spot they had to fill with a name in the manning charts. I never even got to climb the ladder with the rifle
I figured it just translated to “first to die” in a real boarding. LOL
June 23rd, 2012 at 3:06 am
@44- You’re authorized to get the sniper tab tattoo. M14s are now considered designated marksman weapons according to my videogame console, and that sure sounds like “sniper” to me.
Wear it beneath the tattoo of your dolphins.
June 23rd, 2012 at 4:15 am
Why?!? WTF is wrong with these guys? Tattoos make his wild ass claims legitimate? His service wasn’t enough, as screwed up as it was? Lying will change it? Posting his phoniness on the Internet isn’t going to get him busted? This limp dick is another reason why I want to take a road trip and kick the snot out of one of these asshats!
June 23rd, 2012 at 4:21 am

June 23rd, 2012 at 4:57 am
Big Joe Dub, ya know Bro I’m just so sick of these forkin’ weenie boys who can’t, or won’t, accept their service, it makes me want to puke! My service? Boring but honorable and I’m proud of it because there were guys who couldn’t even do that. My little girl is so proud of my service she put a sticker on her car that says,”My Dad is a United Staes Marine”. I was discharged in 1981! I’ve told her all about my tour and she’s still proud of me. Why can’t these asshats do the same?
June 23rd, 2012 at 7:34 am
Who gets a tattoo of an ARCOM??!!!
June 23rd, 2012 at 7:38 am
Another possibility occurs here – looking at his body build, does it look to anyone else like he may have been a steroid user in his younger years? That stuff will REALLY screw with your head and manliness, much of which is never recovered. And contribute to weight issues even after their use is stopped.
June 23rd, 2012 at 8:57 am
No powerpoint tab? I’m calling bullshit.
June 23rd, 2012 at 12:30 pm
I was in 187 with beck. He has always been full of shit. The tatts and shit he has said make me want to drive out to ID and pound him with a shovel. Knowning him well, I know this would be a waste of my time as his head is soild rock. Not a bit of room for a brain. Karma is a bitch. He had to know his false world of being Rambo would come crashing down. For all the other Vets who want to murder this AssHat don’t bother brothers, he is worthless.

Dr. Brett, s request for (unoffical) advice. Which would you reccomend ,a low or high speed sander for tat removal?
June 23rd, 2012 at 4:47 pm
DeWalt angle grinder to the tats with a 70% Isopropyl Alcohol solution to wash off the “residue”.
June 23rd, 2012 at 4:56 pm
With a clover honey/fireant poultice, of course.
June 23rd, 2012 at 6:25 pm
I am going to give a different “perspective” on this piece of dirt that is broader than just another wanna bee trying to puff out his chest. That’s the Stolen Valor Act being possibly thrown out. Yes, we can complain all we want, and I respect that, but I believe all these misrepresentations and lies should be enough to put a man in jail. If the Supreme Court disallows the Stolen Valor Act, then its dirtbags like this who can march alongside of us at Veteran’s Parades and other like functions. And, they can make up all sorts of stories with no downside. And that is very upsetting to me personally.
June 23rd, 2012 at 9:54 pm
At least didn’t claim to be a former Navy SEAL – like a certain Army LT not to long ago. Wore black version of “Budweiser” on his ACUs – thats balls of steel! Got away with it for quite awhile before being called out – was a BUD/S washout. Just be proud in being a good soldier – not everyone is a Captain America Super Soldier type. No need for phony baloney – serve well, collect bennies, & move on.
June 23rd, 2012 at 10:28 pm
I still can’t fathom why people would get tats of medals, etc. And Ray/teddy–I do in fact know a couple guys who got tats of dolphins on their chests.
Lifer digits.
June 23rd, 2012 at 10:41 pm
I took a closer look at those so-called tattoos. They don’t look real. Real tattoos are well-defined and detailed, the colors are bright and they last a long time.
These — thingies, whatever — are poorly defined, have no detail even in closeups, and the lines have spread, which is why I said they look like decals, the kind that little girls use when they want to let everyone know that they like Hello Kitty and Strawberry Shortcake.
Oh! Wait a minute! He’s got man boobs, he wears a man-dress and wash-off tatts.
I get it! I get it! He’s a girl!!!!!
Sorry it took me so long.
June 23rd, 2012 at 10:59 pm
Need more advice, this time legal. Is it freedom of expression or speech for a straight right to the jaw? I have no, zero tolanerace left for these POSs! Can I claim PTSD since the VA has me rated for it? I chased a posr out ot Wallyworld last week. He was claiming to be a Marine spiper. Three seconds to expose him.
June 23rd, 2012 at 11:02 pm
@65- no, but if you shoot them, the media will put the army on trial instead of you. That’s something, I guess.
June 23rd, 2012 at 11:16 pm
#65 Joe W — It would be much better to find a large pile of wood and a sharp axes and take your zero tolerance out on the wood while you’re producing a large pile of firewood. Or something, some activity like this, that allows you to work off the anger, like a punching bag at a gym.
I know you have no tolerance for these jerks, but you’re taking it personally and they don’t even know who you are, so you truly can’t pull a Madea smackdown on them.
June 24th, 2012 at 5:57 pm

June 25th, 2012 at 7:17 am
He was in my unit at Campbell, but I can’t remember him. Funny thing is, the only mutual friend we have is a questionable (I’ve been waiting to see him here) former E-4 that got chaptered out while he was in my squad in TOG. I’ll ask a few buddies if they remember him.
June 25th, 2012 at 7:33 pm
I am this idiots ex-wife…and I will tell you…he has serious mental issues. Says that he has 6 purple hearts and 2 pending?? And it just keeps GROWING…Thankfully our relationship ended…unfortunately only after being shot at by a semi-auto, strangled, and beaten.
June 26th, 2012 at 1:32 am
HA HA this is GREAT!!!! This idiot here, Matt Beck WAS my brother -in-law, and after what he did to my little sister, and put her whole family through,was ridiculous!!!! And to have gotten off on charges for shooting a gun one inch above my sisters head, beating her, stealing from mom, and still calls himself military is beyond repulsive! For the army to have put up with this shit not once, but twice with another female!!!! He isn’t military, military doesn’t to this, doesn’t or shouldn’t put up with this behavior! He is a freak that has slipped through the cracks, and I am so glad this website has caught on to his bullshit!!!!!
June 26th, 2012 at 2:40 am
Oh…and P.S. when we started dating he also told me that he was the guy that cut the head off the Saddam Hussein Statue…LOL oh my. I almost forgot about that..
June 26th, 2012 at 2:50 am
I believe…not necessarily knowing what an article 15 is…believe that his was for domestic violence charges against his 2nd wife?? Not positive, but believe that to be a reason that his rank also went down (pardon my lack of military terms). At least this is what I believe that I read during our divorce…
June 26th, 2012 at 11:13 am
Hahahaha…….priceless.This guy is a major moron and it’s about time the rest of the world knows about his lies. I had to delete him on fb cause he drove me crazy with his bs
June 26th, 2012 at 11:37 am
How many ex-wives does he have???
June 26th, 2012 at 10:05 pm
He has three if I’m correct. The sad thing is what this could do to his daughter!!!! Poor thing, even though she’s already kinda messed up!!! But like….what military has a video (supposedly ) on his phone of them bombing people????
July 6th, 2012 at 4:48 pm
If you notice on his ERB he’s flagged for overweight and Pt failure. thats what AA and KA mean.
July 6th, 2012 at 5:08 pm
Here’s something no one has brought up yet. Even if he did earn all these tabs, and I doubt he did, why would he tattoo them on his ‘combat patch’ side? If he was going to properly place them, the tabs go on his other shoulder. He would never wear a SF or Ranger Tab on that shoulder, but I guess if you’re gonna be ate up, you might as well be completely ate up!!
July 6th, 2012 at 5:14 pm
