Blackfive already has a good start on this and Protein Wisdom is all over it as well, but any help Freepers can give in outing this wannabe would be much appreciated.

Wrong. Marines just got all the credit. Half that battle belonged to the 1st Cavalry Div. Kinda pissed me off at the time, considering my daughter was taking part in that action.
Sorry. I'll defer to your firsthand knowledge. I was working off of news accounts that said the Marines were in the April operation, and that Marines and the 1st Cavalry Div. took part in the November operation.

Well, I must be referring to the November operation (that's when my daughter was there), the one in which Fallujah was cleaned out once and for all. So perhaps I'm in the wrong here. That was the big, "Final", battle.

I should have picked up on the "April" in your post.

In any case, please pass on my thanks to your daughter for her service.

> The trophy room is good stuff. Also sad that punks like those in the trophy room would try that crap.

I think it goes to the complete contempt moonbats have towards our military, its principles and its men and women. They really think it's just a bunch of guys running rag-tag killing civilians. And that impersonating them takes only an equal discipline and attention to detail.

They have no clue.

Note to DU and other lefty lurkers:

Take your favorite hobby. Restoring a Jaguar? Karate? The writings of Che? Whatever. You know someone who you're in awe of because of their knowledge. Rangers, Marines and other fighting men know THEIR stuff BETTER. Why? They LIVE/D it 24/7 for years. What did they talk about on their down time? Yup, military history, codes, regs, etc. It's not a way of life. It IS life.

You cannot jump into this elite group of brave Americans and just pull stuff out of your *ss. You are disheartened to report "that the site that should not be named smoked this guy out in 10 minutes"? You could do the same with *your* areas of expertise. Why is it such a surprise when a loser like "Ranger" MacBeth is spotted as a fraud in seconds?

Okay, which one is the real Army Ranger.

I worked with a guy several years ago who claimed to be a ranger with a silver star from the first gulf war as a tanker. He retired as a staff sergeant and came back to work a few years later as a contractor with a major defense firm and PhD hung on the end of his name. They required a security clearance - oops EXPOSED! He even claimed to have written computer code for NASA and a lunar rover.

Poser Macbeth

Aside from his "deer in the headlights" expression, there's something physically wrong with the picture itself. The frame and the wall are in sharp focus. The picture itself is very diffuse, like it was behind frosted glass. Or the image was blown up from a much larger picture, and "pasted" into the frame.

Y'all have done a good job trashing the creds of this pathetic POS, but I figure a bit of extra piling on can't hurt.

just another wannabe POS to play with. The more the lefties throw dung like this against the wall the better it is for us.

Same sh*t...different war.

These guys always hang themselves. In this case, his Military.com bio is a dead giveaway. No human being on the face of the planet has been awarded the Combat Action Badge with Star. The CAB was initiated during the ongoing Global War on Terror and is not retroactive - No one has been awarded a star. Moreover, soldiers elibible for the Combat Infantryman's Badge cannot be awarded the CAB.

This guy is a 24 karat gold plated phoney. If you care to correspond with him directly, send your letter to: John F. Kerry, United States Senate, Attn: Winter Soldier Project.

My company made the mistake of hiring one of these phoneys. He claimed USMC special ops background (very, very rare), multiple decorations in the post Vietnam era (even more rare), and top secret records (only assignments are classified, not personnel records). Myself and another manager who is an ex-unit member blew a cork when we heard what this guy had claimed. In five minutes on the internet, we had completely smoked him. I'm sure that we could do the same with young Jason.

The wonders of the blogsphere and the internet ensure that the kind of fraud that was advanced by John Kerry and the Winter Soldier Project can never happen again. For that, I am glad.

Looks to me to be a bad Photoshop job. Look at the sharp line just under the beret, and the weird neck length.

Some good discussion on this idiot here:

I think this guy better keep a low profile from here on out.

Protein Wisdom also has this interesting story from an Arizona newspaper in November of 2003.

http://www.eacourier.com/articles/2003/11/03/news/news02.txt

If he was in an assault on Fallujah, it would have been the invasion in spring of '03. Near as I can determine, however, the Rangers were assigned to Tikrit, not Fallujah.

What a pantload this kid is trying to hand us.

The story is so full of holes, Depot Maintenance couldn't patch them all.

That's not a uniform - that's a costume.

Another Winter Soldier. And he's being believed, just like JF'nK. The Left is now figuring that, if someone is getting "swiftboated", they must be the real thing.

Okay, as of this hour, Blackfive is reporting that the poser's Military.com profile has been redacted to remove any references to CAB's or CIB's.

They also report that YouTube has pulled the video - at least they're not featuring it.

The Saga Continues...
