Lost all his teeth to mortar fragments.
“...as the media had repeatedly misreported. ...”
The media does not “misreport”.
The media lies.
Period.
We know it.
And they know it.
Well, he WAS a rifleman in the Nebraska theater for two days.
Not just one day, but two.
Snopes has his 6.
He stated he was a “recon ranger.” Wouldn’t that strongly suggest a combat mission?
I knew he was lying when he used the phrase ‘Recon Ranger’ to describe his service.
There’s in no such thing. It’s called ‘Force Recon’. The term ‘Recon ranger’ is only used in a boot camp PT jogging chant...............
Wants to back up John Kerry.
Maybe he played a Vietnam Vet at the local Little Theater..............
I have searched and searched and cannot find the answer to this question I have. My dad is a Marine (once a Marine, always a Marine- he’s 90). It is my understanding that they are very strict about who they let into the Marines, even if just boot camp, and I thought I read that even your juvenile records must be seen by them?? So how did he even get into the Marines with his mess of a record?? How did he stay, if he really was a Marine? I’m very confused about this. Were standards more lax in the 70’s? TY
Phillips had always strongly implied it without coming right out and saying it.
None of the snowflake media whores have served in the armed forces. Some years ago quite a few had and,regardless of politics, would asked Phillips straight out; Did you ever serve on the ground in the VN, in the air over it or in the waters around it or in support of VN ops in neighboring countries. If so when and where. ‘ No fudging would be permitted. A vet always remembers the time frame and the units he served in.
This fool is smoking weird stuff in his peace pipes. DD214 has no boxes for ‘peacetime’ or ‘in theater’ to check. At least my 1969 DD214 doesn’t. Out of country foreign assignments are shown in your service record in an area defined for just that, no boxes to check. It’s not surprising Chief Frigidaire doesn’t talk about his ‘Vietnam times’ since there weren’t any.
He was watching ‘Apocalypse Now.’

Criminal

AWOL x three
Just a tool of the left, those are his good points.
In reality I think he is just a total loser and has become what he is to become relevant in his own mind. He is a loser!
Theyre making a movie about Nathans time in the Marines. Its called
Full Strait Jacket

Fonda was also a Vietnam vet, she played for the opposing team.
