. | Paul Lemmen says he is a retired
Air Force general, a veteran of combat in Vietnam and years of
intelligence work.
Former friends say he has also told people that he was an officer in the Provisional Irish Republican Army who cut a deal that landed him in the United States. 03/25/2007 ARRESTED Read about a 4 month long investigation into a man who lied his way into a civilian government contracting job overseas in Iraq. While in Iraq this man then decided to put on and wear routinely the uniform of a United States Air Force Special Operations Brigadier General even though he was'nt one. While posing as this General Officer he set up relations with dignitaries from Iraq, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia which he embezzled an untold amount of money from and had deposited in his personal account(s) here in the US. Worse of all he made his way on to one of our Special Forces bases and befriended many of the unsuspecting warriors until US Army CID arrested him for the embezzlement but not the uniform and fraud violations and sent him back home to the US. Back in the US he hears one of the Special Forces troopers he knew in Iraq had been killed in action. He then set up a memorial website to honor a man and unit he lied to and frauded into believing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_H._Lemmen

but when asked if he was SEAL, he always answers, "No, one of the other

Claims to have gotten away with a murder in a barfight because of his
status as a war hero. He claims he was acquitted of all charges because he
was a warhero, even though nobody seems to have a recollection of a barfight
ending up with anybody dead in the time period Leonard specifies. |

National Guard SGM John Letuli
Can you guess the "SPECIAL FORCES" FRAUD IN THIS PICTURE?
National Guard SGM John Letuli North Carolina Army National Guard, 30th HBCT We've been tracking this dirtbag since last November. He's on the CSM list. He's probably still on the Army National Guard CSM list. This scumbag deployed with the 101st last NOV to Iraq, as a "Special Forces" SGM, but funny thing, Letuli ain't never been in Special Forces, ever. You see those CSM's on the right, that's CSM Malloy, CSM of the mighty 101st Airborne Division, he's the real deal. The CSM on the far right, that's CSM Grippe, he's also the real deal. The two SGM's on the left, I don't know but I'm sure they are the real deals. That piece of shit in the middle wearing A SPECIAL FORCES COMBAT PATCH is a NORTH CAROLINA NATIONAL GUARD SGM AND A TOTAL FRAUD. FOR SIX MONTHS WE'VE BEEN TRACKING THIS BOTTOM FEEDER WAITING FOR ACTION, NOTHING, NOTHING AT ALL. NOW HE'S GOING TO BE FAMOUS. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO COPY THIS AND SEND IT TO EVERY MILITARY WEBSITE YOU KNOW. THIS SCUMBAG SHOULD BE IN JAIL, BUT HE'S WALKING ABOUT USING MILITARY BENEFITS AND WILL MOST LIKELY BE ALLOWED TO RETIRE AS A SGM. AS FAR AS I KNOW NOTHING IS BEING DONE TO HIM, NOTHING. [Edit to add, we've been tracking this dirtbag since SEPT of last year, not NOV, I just checked my emails.]

SC | 05/2010 |
Member of the American legion post 166 Goose
Creek SC. Chuck Lewis is wearing a seal
trident and was allowed to join the Legion without producing a DD214.
He turned a form letter that states that his DD214 IS classified.
NO MILITARY RECORDS
COULD BE LOCATED BY THE NAVY |
I greatly appreciate your
interest in upholding the honor of the US Navy SEAL Teams, and your
search for the TRUTH. Before answering your questions I must make
clear that I am a private individual, not affiliated with the US
Dept. of Defense or any other government organization. My efforts to
expose SEAL imposters are performed as a service to the public, and
in honor of my SEAL Teammates who gave their lives in service to our
nation… men who truly earned the right to the title “US NAVY SEAL”
but who are no longer able to stand forward in defense of their
honor, their reputations, and their TEAMs.
If the name you provided is spelled
correctly, I do NOT
find a listing in the SEAL Database (SEAL Teams and predecessor
units from1943 to the Present Day) for anyone named
CHARLES R LEWIS JR.
I have also examined possible alternate spellings, and names with
similar pronunciations without finding any that appear to be
applicable.
Unless he has undertaken the
unlikely action of a legal name change (an action for which there
would be evidence in the form of court documentation) since his
claimed attendance at BUD/S training, and based upon the information
you have provided, I can state
conclusively that CHARLES R LEWIS JR has NEVER COMPLETED SEAL
training, and he is not now, nor was he ever a Navy SEAL, a Navy UDT
“Frogman”, a member of any Naval Combat Demolition Unit (NCDU), or a
member of the Naval Amphibious Scouts & Raiders (S&R).
When members of the Naval
Special Warfare community meet others who claim similar service, but
whom they do not recognize, there is a conversational exchange of
information that establishes the bona fides of each to the other.
There is no set formula for this exchange, nor for the information
that is exchanged, but it ALWAYS takes place, and the REAL Naval
Special Warfare members can ALWAYS spot a phony as a result of this
exchange. If Mr. LEWIS
persists in insisting that his SEAL claims are legitimate, I might
suggest that you ask him these questions: (1) Since
there is no listing in the SEAL Database for the name you are
currently using, WHAT NAME DID
YOU USE during SEAL training? (2) What
was his BUD/S Class Number?
(NB: No SEAL ever forgets the class number he shouted all day long,
every day, for 6 months)? (3)
Where did his training
take place? (NB: Training has been conducted at several locations
over the years; different portions in different places)? (4)
When did he graduate from
Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL (BUD/S) training? (i.e. a specific
graduation DATE)? (5)
When did he enter the US
Navy (a specific month and year)? (6)
When did he leave the US
Navy (a specific month and year)? (7)
What were his Primary and
Secondary Naval Enlisted Classification codes –NEC– or his Naval
Officer Billet Code – NOBC?
There are many
other questions which could be asked to further establish the level
of veracity or untruth regarding his claims, such as asking for the
names of other members of his graduating class, but those basic
questions are absolutes. The
answers to those questions are totally UNCLASSIFIED, and every real
SEAL will gladly provide that substantiating information upon
request.
I might suggest that you also
ask Mr. LEWIS to
specifically identify WHICH SEAL Team(s) he served on, and when. I
am in direct contact with several hundred of my SEAL Teammates whose
collective experience covers virtually all time periods from the
Korean War to the present; I can quickly contact those individuals
to verify any specific names, events, or other claims offered by Mr.
LEWIS. If he feels
that his name has somehow been mistakenly omitted from the SEAL
records, I’d be pleased to hear details of his service which would
serve to validate his claims. The Director of the Naval Special
Warfare Archives – a close personal friend and SEAL Teammate – is
only a phone call away and standing by to amend the records if this
is ever found to be true. However, I estimate that I’ve made the
same offer many thousands of SEAL imposters in the past decade, and
none of them ever turned out to be a valid SEAL.
Before any
classified operations may be undertaken as a SEAL Operator, a man
must first successfully complete the totally unclassified BUD/S
Training program and the follow-on secondary training program; the
names of all those who successfully graduate from that training
program are compiled in the SEAL database. Later participation in
classified operations has no impact on whether or not a person is
listed as a graduate of the training program. There are records of
every man who has qualified for the title of “SEAL”; there have been
and will continue to be secret missions, but there are NO secret
SEALs… we know them all.
The statement
reportedly made by Mr. LEWIS
that DD214s might be classified is patently absurd. The DD214 Report
of Separation document is intended to be used by a serviceman in not
only documenting his service in the military, but is specifically
intended to present information which a former service member will
use in gaining subsequent employment in the civilian world. It is
meant to be seen by others. Neither does a service member’s
personnel record contain classified or restricted information. Those
records are purely administrative and no “missions” or “operational
tasking” is documented in a man’s records. They list his schooling
and skill; this not only determines what jobs he can be assigned,
but. how much the Navy has invested in his training, and how much
they must pay him. They list his rank/promotions as a way of
tracking what level of responsibility and authority a service member
might be entrusted to carry. They list not only the man’s current
unit (where paychecks are to be sent), but previous units to which a
man has been assigned. This information will provide additional
measures of his job experience and capability. This information is
simple, straightforward, and completely innocuous. They will list
his obligated service – i.e. how much longer does the Navy have to
continue paying him.
Hollywood movies
and TV dramas are filled with instances where mens’ military records
are somehow classified or sequestered in the interest of national
security, but that isn’t the case in real life. Mr.
LEWIS has recited the
basic plot element for 2/3 of the Hollywood “action thrillers” which
have been made in the last 40 years… but Hollywood isn’t real life.
Thank you again for your
concern in this matter, and for your assistance in upholding the
honor of the US Navy SEAL Teams. If I can be of any further
assistance to you in this matter, please contact me at your
convenience.
Respectfully,
Steve Robinson RM2(SEAL) |

Email from Chad Light:
BUD/S hellweek is a qualifier for BUD/S. Non
navel personnel can get slots if they are open. You even get
paid for it. BUD/S is over six months long, the slots weren't
for the full course, and aren't always available. It's for the
experience, but it's no joking matter to be a DO. It was a way to get
paid. Every day on active training counted as active duty, so
you got paid for it. My pay grade was E-5 and it was extra money
above what I was getting from the Gov. already. Master Chief
Medley, it was 1988.
SEERs training, Somewhere on Camp MacKall, (The buried
locker, strobe lights in the sewer pips etc.) run by LTC Atkins,
who at the time was commandant of SEERS. As you've probably
realized, SEER/S training and SEER/S are not the same thing.
This was the Fall of 87.
Ranger was a pass, fail qualification requirement in
lieu of the regular, graded requirements of my military instruction.
One shot, Pre Ranger + 9 weeks. I recycled two times, on
different weeks, but had great peer evaluations and passed the course
and graduated. It was 1987.
SFQC, I completed all 4 phases, Robin Sage, all of it.
Successfully completed the course, period. It was 1989.
My position was unique to SF and there were just a few
of us in the entire Battalion. I'm not trying to say it was some
"secret unit" within SF. But this I can assure
you, their was no Infantry unit "assigned" to the SF Unit
while I was with it. At Battalion HQ our names filled slots as
"excess", and kept track of completed training and schools.
I had to first be Airborne, I wore the SF unit patch, the Beret, and
trained with the individual Teams within the Company I was assigned
to. If I can trust you with this, maybe we can
talk about some of the rest of it. Claims: 1. Attended
Marshall University, Huntington, WV (from about 1984-1989)
3. Graduated w/ degrees in history, political science and psychology........
4. Served with B Company 1st Infantry at Ft. Benning, GA. (I believe this to be true) 5. 53 confirmed kills........
6. Military Schools:
Operational Claims: 7. Trained armed forces in Thailand or Asia involved with the Khmer Rouge conflict..........
please, give me a break, he is too young to have been
involved with the Khmer Rouge, who BTW were
9. Desert Storm sent into the mountains north of Baghdad just before the major conflict started to debrief and guard Iraqi officers that had defe cted........
10. Somalia claims to have been one of the SF sent in to rescue the downed helicopters in the infamous helicopter downings.
2009 - Claims x- SF Captain and Army Ranger with a lot of combat experience. |

http://military-posers-fakers.info
=========================================================== http://sanjose.metblogs.com/2010/02/11/cinequest-jeffrey-james-lippold-cindy-margolis/#comment-1696 There is a guy that is on a tv show "Seducing Cindy" on Fox Reality Channel that is claiming that he is a "Purple Heart" and "Silver Star" recipient from Desert Shield/Storm. It was on the "Real Deal" episode. I am a military veteran and was watching the show with my wife. This guy has to be lying. From his mannerism of telling the story to claims that he made, he "has to be lying". Can you please contact whoever could locate this guy on a Purple Heart Registry? His name is Jeffrey James Lippold and he claims to be a former Marine. Can you PLEASE check on this? WR ------------------------ I heard J.J. tonight telling the guys that he was in the Navy Special Forces, and then he said Marine force Recon, when talking to Cindy he added that he was a medic in Marine force Recon. Medics are in the Army Jeff my boy. He also said he dragged another wounded man, himself severely wounded, 300 miles and the guy lived. While telling this fabrication to the guys he must have been practicing because when he told Cindy shortly after that he broke down crying and was unable to finish the story. He told the guys he had a silver star but when asked what it was he gave an answer that proved he did not have one. Us real Marines call people like him wannabes. They are the worst kind of liars because they steal the glory that rightfully belongs to others. I served 3 years in Vietnam with the Marine grunts and I earned a purple heart and Silver Star rescuing some shot up Marines in the middle of the night. BTW, it was only 500 yards away. People like J.J. make me want to puke. Cindy bought into it hook, line and sinker. Someone who has the ability to reach her needs to tell her. BD --------------------
At midnight Fox Reality is reairing "Seducing Cindy" Episode
6. One of the competing bachelors, Jeffrey James Lippold claims to have
earned a SS and PH in the Gulf War. I couldn't find the citation in the
database. If you're still up, check it out. This may be actionable. This
is the episode when he makes the claims. J
-----------------------
FYI ... I also saw an online profile for him under the name "Jeffrey
Mark Lippold." There are several sites where he self identifies
alternately as a Navy veteran, Marine Force Recon, Navy medic (not
corpsman) and JSOC trained or Navy commando (not SEAL). The SS and PH
claims were made on the show, Seducing Cindy Episode 6. I haven't seen
those specific valor claims elsewhere. I've received two separate tips
based on the show content since it first aired Sunday. J
----------------- These are to only 2 FACEBOOK pages left up. Most of our contacts have
been on his site but it reached the point of way to many people raging on
him so he made it private, viewable only to himself. But you have to read
the one he posted on my site today. The harder he tries to cover his butt,
the deeper he digs. He talks about going through OCS in San Diego, then says
years later he tried for the W.O. program because he wanted to be a pilot.
Something smell bad about that to you also? ---------------------------- I am a former army infantry officer (served 1999-2005). Several weeks a
go I watched a show- "Seducing Cindy" - a reality style dating
show. During the show one of the contestants named Jeffrey James Lippold
declared during a date with the star of the show Cindy Margolis that he had
earned the silver star and purple heart during combat operations in Gulf War
I/Desert Storm. He did not identify what unit he exactly was a part of but
claimed that he earned these decorations for saving a teammate and carrying
him 300 miles. The story stunk so I sought him out on facebook and youtube -
he is easy to find on both sites. I feel that since he identified himself as
a decorated veteran on national tv that he could explain further- he
continuously responds with diversions and challenges to meet fce to face-
never explaining what unit he served in, pictures, MOS/rate, etc. --------------------------------
Jeffrey James - 41
Bad Ass Romantic A little bit about me, I was born Jeffrey James Lippold, son to Marine Corps Col. Lippold, and Barbara Lippold.
I had the privilege to grow up all
over the world, as a result, I found myself bonded to Martial Arts,
both out of necessity, and out of love for the art. I have had the
privilege to study under some of the greatest masters in the world.
I followed suit and also served in
the US Navy Spec Ops, and served time with Marine Corps
Force Recon among other field units....

RESUME
-------------------------------------------- 04/08/2010 Look, Some dirt bag put my name on your list and is slandering me
everywhere. I was on a tv show that was not an accurate or true
depiction of me as a person. That is why I have the credit on my IMDB
page as Bad Ass Romantic, and not as "Himself" 04/08/2010 "Funny - he used his own name, explained his own bio, his interest in martial arts and his career on the show- so what part is it that we have wrong? If he was truly an honorable veteran he would have known the repercussions of claiming to earn a PH and SS - and he controls his own IMDB page to put whatever titles on it that he wants. His online rants and deflections to these questions only raise more questions. At least a couple of us have been in contact with him- and he has told us both completely dif stories of his background."
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1ST HE SAID HE WAS TALKING ABOUT SOMEONE ELSE AND IT WAS CUT TO LOOK LIKE HE WAS TALKING ABOUT HIMSELF. 2ND HE SAID IT WAS SCRIPTED. IT WAS NEITHER. PRODUCERS TRIED TO CONFIRM THE STORY BECAUSE OF DOUBTS BUT GOT NO

============================ 6
December, 2010
Sally Quinn Yates
Ms. Yates,
I was notified yesterday (5 Dec.
2010) via telephone, from a ....... that a retired
U.S. Marine Officer, LTC Robert Ledee told ............ that
he (Ledee) contacted your office regarding the prosecution
of former Cobb County Public Safety Director Gary “Mickey”
Lloyd, for Violation of Oath of Office, Altering a Federal
Document, Forgery, and Violation of the Stolen Valor Act.
Ledee stated that he contacted your office (Department of
Justice), and said that Lloyd was a friend of the office
(due to his law enforcement career) and that his “resigning
from his office was punishment enough.” Ledee also told
...................that he contacted the FBI as well, with
the same answer. ....................... is willing to make
a sworn statement to your office, or the FBI regarding this
incident.
Mickey Lloyd, a retired
Deputy Chief of the Atlanta Police Department,
former Homeland Security Director for the State of
Georgia, and finally the Public Safety Director for
Cobb County, resigned from his public Safety
Director’s position after it was brought to the
public’s attention of his claims of Vietnam War
service and medals were false. Lloyd claimed (and
still claims) that he was awarded the Silver Star,
which happens to be the 3rd highest medal
this country awards for “Gallantry in Action,” two
Bronze Stars for Valor, and a Purple Heart. None of
Lloyd’s claims were proven. In fact, retired FBI
Agent Oliver Halle stated that Lloyd told him that
he was awarded the Silver Star medal, and saw a
Silver Star in Lloyd’s Cobb County Public Safety
Directors office “around March 2008.”
Lloyd’s submitting an
altered (forged) federal document DD-214 to the Cobb
County HR Department in June, of 2010 showing that
he was awarded these medals, was a criminal act in
itself. As a public official this includes the
criminal act of Violation of Oath of Office along
with his submission of a photograph claiming these
awards. Lloyd even today, continues to say that he was awarded these medals......
|
Excerpt of a newspaper article of fired police recruits.
Instructors stress the magnitude of honesty with recruits. Police
officers are often key witnesses in criminal trials.
"If you cheat,
embezzle or lie, you lose your credibility in court," Lloyd said.
Commission Chairman Sam Olens said, "Our police officers need to be
beyond reproach." |

or --------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------- Please pass
this information along in response to the inquiry regarding Mr. GERRY/GERALD
LUNDY. To Whom It
May Concern: I greatly
appreciate your interest in upholding the honor of the US Navy SEAL
Teams, and your search for the TRUTH. Before answering your questions I
must make clear that I am a private individual, not affiliated with the
US Dept. of Defense or any other government organization. My efforts to
expose SEAL imposters are performed as a service to the public, and in
honor of my SEAL Teammates who gave their lives in service to our
nation… men who truly earned the right to the title “US NAVY SEAL”
but who are no longer able to stand forward in defense of their honor,
their reputations, and their TEAMs. If
the name you provided is spelled correctly, I do NOT
find a listing in the SEAL Database (end of WWII to the Present Day) for
anyone named GERRY/GERALD
LUNDY. I
have also examined possible alternate spellings, and names with similar
pronunciations without finding any that might be applicable. There were
NO MEN listed in the SEAL Database with the last name “LUNDY”
or any variant thereof. Unless
he has undertaken the unlikely action of a legal name change (an action
for which there would be court documentation) since his claimed
attendance at BUD/S training, and based upon the information you have
provided, I can state conclusively
that GERRY/GERALD LUNDY
has NEVER COMPLETED SEAL training, and he is not now, nor was he ever a
Navy SEAL or a Navy UDT “Frogman”. When members
of the Naval Special Warfare community meet others who claim similar
service, but whom they do not recognize, there is a conversational
exchange of information that establishes the bona fides of each to the
other. There is no set formula for this exchange, nor for the
information that is exchanged, but it ALWAYS takes place, and the REAL
Naval Special Warfare members can ALWAYS spot a phony as a result of
this exchange. If you have an opportunity to speak with the man at some
point in the future, I might suggest that you to ask Mr. LUNDY
these questions: (1) Since
there is no listing in the SEAL Database for the name you are currently
using, WHAT NAME DID YOU USE
during SEAL training? (2) What was
his BUD/S Class Number?
(NB: No SEAL ever forgets the class number he shouted all day long,
every day, for 6 months) (3) Where
did his training take place? (NB: Training has been conducted at several
locations over the years; different portions in different places) (4) When
did he graduate from Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL (BUD/S) training?
(i.e. a specific graduation DATE) There
are many other questions which could be asked to further establish the
level of veracity or untruth regarding his claims, such as asking for
the names of other members of his graduating class, but those basic
questions are absolutes. The answers
to those questions are totally UNCLASSIFIED, and every real SEAL will
gladly provide that substantiating information upon request, although
you will be very likely be told that the information is either
classified or sensitive and cannot be provided, or you will be given
some totally bogus information. I might
suggest that you also ask Mr. LUNDY
to specifically identify WHICH SEAL Team(s) he served on, and when.
I am in direct contact with several hundred of my SEAL Teammates whose
collective experience covers virtually all time periods from the Korean
War to the present; I can quickly contact those individuals to verify
any specific names, events, or other claims offered by Mr. LUNDY.
If he feels that his name has somehow been mistakenly omitted from the
SEAL records, I’d be pleased to speak with him and hear details of his
service which would serve to validate his claims. The Director of the
Naval Special Warfare Archives – a close personal friend and SEAL
Teammate – is only a phone call away and standing by to amend the
records if this is ever found to be true. However, I
estimate that I’ve made the same offer to more than 5,000
SEAL imposters in the last eight
years, and none of them ever turned out to be a valid SEAL. If Mr. LUNDY
subsequently suggests to you or others you know that he has
contacted me, the Department of the Navy, or “the government” in
some way and “straightened things out”, I’d be very interested in
hearing from you again. No
one gets to the SEAL Teams without first completing BUD/S Training.
There are records of every man who has qualified for the title of
“SEAL”; there have been and will continue to be secret missions, but
there are NO secret SEALs… we know them all. Thank you
again for your concern in this matter, and for your assistance in
upholding the honor of the US Navy SEAL Teams. Based upon your report of
his claims of having received numerous medals of valor, Mr. LUNDY
would appear to have crossed the line from braggadocio and he would
be prosecutable under the STOLEN VALOR ACT of 2005. As noted in my
opening paragraph, I am a private individual and am in no way affiliated
with the US Department of Defense or the US government. Despite any
reports you may make/send to me regarding Mr. LUNDY’s
false SEAL claims, any such information which I might pass along to the
federal authorities (FBI, DCIS) in this matter would be classified as
“hearsay” and therefore inadmissible in a court of law. The
responsibility for reporting the individual named in your inquiry to the
federal authorities as a military imposter rests with you and with
anyone else who may have personally heard or received these claims from
the individual himself. Whether or not you decide to report him to the
federal authorities is entirely up to you, but at least you now know the
truth regarding his bogus claims. I’m certain
that whatever you decide to do, you will need several witnesses who can
attest to the accuracy of your report regarding Mr. LUNDY’s
conduct and his claims of being a SEAL. If you should be so fortunate as
to have either a videotape of him making his false claims, or
photographs of him wearing ANY military medals, badges, patches, or
other paraphernalia, they would be of interest to the authorities. If I
can be of any further assistance to you in this matter, please contact
me at your convenience. Respectfully, Steve

NO MILITARY RECORDS LOCATED BY NPRC |
Dear
POW Network, Please
pass this information along to
in response to the inquiry regarding Mr. ERIC
“DOC” LUOMA and his claims of being a US Navy
SEAL. Additionally,
please evaluate this information for forwarding to the Federal
Authorities and/or other parties concerned with upholding the STOLEN
VALOR ACT of 2005. I
greatly appreciate your interest in upholding the honor of the US Navy
SEAL Teams, and your search for the TRUTH. Before answering your
questions I must make clear that I am a private individual, not
affiliated with the US Dept. of Defense or any other government
organization. I am one of about a dozen men in America who possess a
copy of the SEAL Database, a comprehensive and regularly updated listing
of all men who trained and served with the Naval Special Warfare units (SEALs,
UDT, NCDU, S&R) from the end of WWII to the present day. I also have
access to archival sources who can verify/deny claims of service DURING
WWII. As a former US Navy SEAL myself, I am fully familiar with the NSW
training program and the standard operating procedures used by the
Teams, as well as an in-depth personal knowledge of many of the
‘insider’ events and incidents which UDT “Frogmen” and SEALs
offer as a part of their bona fides. My efforts to expose SEAL imposters
are performed free of charge, as a service to the public, and in honor
of my SEAL Teammates who gave their lives in service to our nation…
men who truly earned the right to the title “US NAVY SEAL” but who
are no longer able to stand forward in defense of their honor, their
reputations, and their TEAMs. If
the name you provided is spelled correctly, I do NOT
find a listing in the SEAL database of successful graduates for anyone
named ERIC
“DOC” LUOMA. I have also examined possible
alternate spellings, and names with similar pronunciations. With only
one exception that I am personally aware of, the nickname “DOC”
is one given to enlisted men who are trained as Navy Hospital Corpsmen.
There is only one (1) man listed in the entirety of the SEAL Database
with the last name LUOMA.
That man was a naval officer with a SEAL classification, with the rank
of LT(jg) [O2] at the time he graduated from training in 1977, and the
rank of COMMANDER [O5] when he transferred from active duty to the Naval
Reserves. Neither his first nor his middle name is ERIC.
His service was primarily performed years BEFORE SEAL Teams THREE and
FIVE even came into existence. Given the time frame you offer, and the
apparent rarity of the man’s last name, there is a slender possibility
that the man you encountered was the son of the bona fide SEAL officer,
though I would expect the offspring of a Navy SEAL to be more respectful
of the military in general and less likely to offer false claims of such
service. Unless
he has undertaken the unlikely action of a legal name change (an action
for which there would be court documentation) since his claimed
attendance at BUD/S training, and based upon the information you have
provided, I can state conclusively
that ERIC “DOC” LUOMA
has NEVER COMPLETED SEAL training,
and he is not now, nor was he ever a Navy SEAL. As
was noted in my earlier correspondence to you regarding another
imposter, it is quite common for those making fraudulent SEAL claims to
cite a “secret” training class, “special selection and skills
which allowed them to bypass BUD/S training”, or “secret missions”
as an explanation for the lack of military documentation to back up
their stories. They also tend to claim their military records are
“sealed” and cannot be accessed. I would caution you that despite
anything the man might have said, there are NO secret SEALs. Before any
classified operations may be undertaken, a man must first successfully
complete the totally unclassified BUD/S Training program. No one gets to
the SEAL Teams without completing this training; there are NO
EXCEPTIONS! The graduates of that training program are listed in the
SEAL database – an unclassified document which is nonetheless
considered “highly sensitive” and therefore not available for
general public circulation. There have been and will continue to be
secret missions, but there are NO secret SEALs… we know them all. I
checked another online database held by the Department of Defense and
accessed through www.military.com
under the Freedom Of Information Act by using their Buddy
Finder. That database of over 20 million records is one of
the most complete available to the general public, and is fairly
accurate from about 1974 to the present day. That database originally
began as a listing of all military service personnel who might have been
exposed to Agent Orange while on duty in Vietnam, and was a means of
keeping records for later possible monetary compensation. It was quickly
recognized by the DoD as the start of a very comprehensive database of
military personnel, and subsequently expanded to include virtually ALL
members of the military in later years. The closer to the present time,
the more detailed and complete the records in the database. For those
who served in the US military from 1978 onward, these records are
virtually complete and comprehensive. I found
NO Department of Defense records which matched the information you
provided. I did find one MEMBER record which appears to be for the man
you have identified. A MEMBER record consists of information provided
solely by the person who is registering for the site, and that
information is NOT screened for accuracy or truthfulness by the web
site. The
entry in question appears under the name Erick
C. Luomaoscsusnsealretired, and as you can see it involves a
rather childish composite of information. You may examine that man’s
user-supplied profile information by visiting this web page à
http://profile.military.com/member/view.do?memberId=2109750
The
web site offers MEMBERS the opportunity to display graphics representing
the awards, citations, medals, etc, which they have earned. The person
who compiled the aforementioned page has chosen to display TWENTY-FOUR
MEDALS, several of which are shown more than once (which is NOT the way
the real military represents multiple awards). He
has elected to display graphics which represent his claims of being
awarded ONE Silver Star, ONE Navy Marine Corps Ribbon, TWO Bronze Stars,
ONE Purple Heart, ONE Joint Service Commendation, ONE Navy/Marine Corps
Commendation, ONE Navy/Marine Corps Achievement, ONE Combat Action
Ribbon, ONE Good Conduct, ONE Antarctica Service, ONE Vietnam Service,
TWO Vietnam Gallantry Cross with Palm, ONE Vietnam Gallantry Cross with
Silver Star, ONE Vietnam Campaign, ONE USN Expert Rifle, ONE USN Expert
Pistol, ONE USN/USMC Presidential Unit Citation, ONE Meritorious Unit
Commendation, ONE Navy Unit Commendation, ONE Republic of Vietnam
Presidential Unit Citation, ONE RVN Gallantry Cross Unit Citation with
Palm, and ONE RVN Civic Action Honor Unit Citation with Palm.
Without writing a thesis or dissertation on the subject, it is not
possible in this short correspondence to describe the multitudinous
errors present in this eclectic array of claimed awards. Notably,
though the MEMBER has chosen to insert the title “usnsealretired” as
a part of the name he registered with MILITARY.COM, there has been no
graphic selection or presentation of a Navy SEAL Trident insignia, nor
of the Navy/Marine Corps Parachute “Jump Wings” which are both
standard for ALL US Navy SEALs. This
display is so blatantly false and so improbable that it boggles the
mind. Given his unfamiliarity with the manner in which real awards are
displayed, I would suspect that the person who concocted this graphic
collection has never served in the military in any fashion. He
was most definitely NEVER A US NAVY SEAL!
This collection of fantasy and fluff fairly “screams” of being a
self-aggrandizing effort by an immature teenage “wannabe”. Although
it is unlikely that the federal authorities would pursue this particular
case, the claims offered by this graphic display constitute a very real
violation of the STOLEN VALOR ACT of 2005. This observation is
specifically based upon the apparent claims of valor medals including
the SILVER STAR, the BRONZE STAR, and the PURPLE HEART. If found to be
false claims, each of these carries a potential fine of $10,000 and 1
year imprisonment upon conviction. It
should be noted that the MILITARY.COM web site apparently does not
screen the many thousands of entries made by registered members, and
relies upon the honesty of those members with regard to the accuracy of
reporting military credentials. Thank you
again for your concern in this matter, and for your assistance in
upholding the honor of the US Navy SEAL Teams. Very
Respectfully, Steve
