A man who appeared in a Navy SEAL uniform at a Thousand Oaks school event this week apparently never served in the Navy, military officials said Wednesday.
Salhem Dreasden was among those in uniform Tuesday at a tribute to soldiers at Ladera School. The school was honored at the event for outstanding patriotism and support of the armed forces.
Dreasden was wearing a Navy uniform that bore his last name, the words "SEAL TEAM," the trident pin insignia of the elite unit and twin bars indicating the rank of Navy lieutenant.
The name Salhem Dreasden, however, does not appear anywhere in databases of Navy service members that go back to at least the Vietnam War, said Katie Suich, a spokeswoman for the Navy Personnel Command in Tennessee. There aren't any S. Dreasdens in the database, either, she said.
Federal law prohibits the unauthorized wearing of a U.S. military uniform

Right. He patches up guys in the Marine Corpse.
CIA's SAD/SOG found him. SEAL Team 6 DEVGRU went in hot and got em.
Sadly, Obama’s salute is better than this imposter.
You’re being pedantic and deliberately choosing to miss the point.
Enough said.
This man is not named Salhem Dreasden. . .his real name is Dan McGrew, Jr. He is a total fraud in many ways.
That’s a really crappy salute ...
Nicky how do you know Salhem/Dan
