Apparently he had a name change along the way from AL-ZAID, JESSE ADAM to MacBeth.....

You mean he's really French, not Scotch?

"... he duped other lefty loonies into believing him."

You don't have to try very hard to dupe lefty loonies. Just tell them what they already believe and embellish it enough to get them chanting ... it is the Kombaya syndrome.

Just remember:

Liberals See What They Believe; Conservitives Believe What They See.

Oh my goodness that photo passed as the bootcamp photo???

For goodness sake, he is wearing a watch and the salute is a joke and I think the army does require boots to be clean shaving.

There I was at 15,000 feet,......

Ah, yes, you must be familiar with the dictum that any story involving aircraft beginning with the magic words, "there I was", is going to be a tall tale.

Yeh - there are other conventions. In the Navy the story traditionally starts “Now, this is no sh*t...”

Not only that, the "US ARMY" and "MACBETH" patches above the BDU pockets are each sewn on the wrong sides! LMAO!

“There I was at 15,000 feet, Fokkers to the right of me, MiGs to the left. General Beauregard called on the radio and said “This guy Richtofen has to be taken out.” “10-4, good buddy,” I replied, and my Spad’s jet engines howled...”

LOL! I didn’t know I could actually blow coffee out of my nose. My poor keyboard.

I thought the patches looked strange. Thanks for those facts.
