He claimed he was a Recon Ranger — there is no such thing as a Marine Recon Ranger, Rangers are in the Army.

Retired US Navy SEAL Don Shipley, who is known for publicly outing people for ‘stolen valor,’ obtained Nathan Phillips’ DD-214 form and exposed the truth.

Nathan Phillips was enlisted under the name Nathaniel Richard Stanard.

“Nathaniel Phillips enlisted in the Marine Corps Reserves on May 20th, 1972 and served until May 5th, 1976,” Don Shipley said as he read the DD-214 form.

“He served under just four years and was discharged at the exalted rank of ‘Private'” Shipley said sarcastically.

Shipley continued, “His entire military education was as a basic electrician in the Marine Corps — while he served in Lincoln, Nebraska, he served as a refer mach.”

Nathan Phillips went AWOL THREE TIMES while he was stationed at El Toro Marine Base in Southern California, according to his DD-214 form.

The record does not state honorably, only discharged. Red State has copies of his record in the article at post 100.

My son signed up for USMC Reserves as a senior in high school. Off to MCRD in July 2001 for boot camp. That's where he was when the 9-11 WTC attack occurred. Off to School of Infantry at Pendleton, then Ft Leonard Wood for his MOS training. April 18, 2003 he was landing in Kuwait City. Hopped into his Hummer with 50 cal on top. Running rescue missions over the Iraq border to remove wounded and spending days at camp working with the doctors. Starting IVs, doing transports of the more critical patients for evac to Kuwait City by helicopter. After 6 months, he returned to San Diego. Weekend warrior after that. Finished his enlistment as a Corporal.

He did some extra simulation/training/adversary work at Ft Irwin and special hand-to-hand combat training. Very good at Aikido prior to enlistment. Finished high school with a 4.33 GPA and all "5" scores on his AP exams.

Today he has a BA in Business Administration and another BA in Physics. He's also a licensed real estate broker in 5 states, has a Class A CDL with 6 months driving flatbeds for TMC. Not a bad net outcome.

Nailed it yesterday!

Recon Marine?

More like a sick bay commando or probably just a brig rat.

Does this guy being a mechanic have anything to do with it?
