I'm a Navy guy and was laughing at this guy's picture. Beret folded in the wrong direction, wrong roll on the sleeves, it goes on and on. This guy better hope he doesn't run into a real Ranger, or a real Ranger's mother. He will get his butt kicked.

Most likely has a problem with (rump) rangers running into him!

The good folks at ArmyRanger.com are looking at him. He is claiming more qualification badges and awards than most soldiers with far more rank. The dead giveaway is his beret. I have no idea what flash is on the beret, but it isn't the Ranger Regimental flash. Also, no Ranger would wear such a fu&%ed up looking beret.

Or, for that matter, a real Ranger's kid sister. :=)

Wow, what a tool. Beret on wrong, sleeves rolled wrong, wrong shirt, wrong language. How much did he get paid? Ranger companies only deploy for a few months at a time.

Way to go Navy guy. I knew something looked wrong with this schmuck. According to Army regulations, the "excess material" of the beret will be folded down over the right ear. Good job! To me, the material of his BDUs doesn't look right either. The colors or the pattern are wrong. Looks like an Army/Navy Store special of the day. A REAL PX hero.

Like I said, too many things wrong for me to list. Some of the commenters on other threads have pointed out long lists of problems with this guy's story and appearance. Lefties are credulous saps so long as some POS supports their position.

It's the same direction you generally see the Iraqi insurgents toss the end of the towel around their head/face, so as to not interfere with a rifle or RPG launcher held up to their right cheek.

A beret or ski mask offers no such challenge. But old habits die hard.

BTW: the French Foreign Legion and the Vietnamese Rangers, Special Forces/BDQ, and american advisors and straphangers thereof did indeed wear their beanies *pulled left*.
