Highest Military Rank – General “D”

In the Stolen Valor section of reddit, they introduce a man found on a park bench in Washington, D.C. and, well, uh… I think he speaks about himself in a way that I never could.  So, here is “General ‘D'”…

. . .

There is no indication that this was staged or a spoof video, but that’s always a possibility.

What is truly amazing is the confidence that this man displays when talking about his military credentials. He has obviously thought it all through.

  1. Looks like one of the walking wounded in the War on Drugs.

    “I caddied for the Dalai Lama… the Dalai Lama, man!”

  2. “The military won’t pay me right.”

    “The military won’t work with me right.”

    I feel ya, man.

  3. Mentally ill, no tick mark on the FY21 Valor Vultures Tote Board for him.

    Truly sad to be out in the general populace all alone like that.

  4. Poor fellow, don’t believe his cornbread is baked all the way thru. Bless his heart. Wonder how many folks in this situation could have been helped with all the money spent on painting streets lately?

    1. He actually sounds a lot tighter that The False Commander “Phony” Phil Monkress (CEO of All-Points Logistics).

  5. I imagined he was trained at All-Points Logistics.

    Hence him sitting on a park bench and delevering his educational lecture.

    1. But then again, maybe he was referencing one of their (All-Points Logistics) leadership training videos: “The Empire Strikes Back”. Fairly standard professional development in heir organization.

      In that particular video, they did have a “General Billy D.”.

      Just saying.

  6. Could this be the same nutjob?
    Same name, identical.
    Gen. Vincent Diaz, Jr.
    A long string of nutzo videos on YouBoob.
    Places himself at “National Mall” on this vid.
    Complexion doesn’t quite match up with the featured video above, though.
    Are there 2 General Vincent Diaz Jr. types lurking around D.C?
    Ugh, these nuts.

    1. This looks like a room in some kind of … facility. In case you wanted to know, this (and the guy in the OP vid) are what schizophrenia look like. Even medicated, this is how it frequently presents. Generally harmless. And happy in their own alternate universe.

      It’s sad, and as others have said, no SV fire mission deserved or appropriate for either.

      1. Only Army Mom,
        Unless he’s panhandling, begging, or pickpocketing D.C tourists.
        That’s the M.O. in Atlantic City, NJ,
        on and off the boardwalk.
        They are ALL wearing black and yellow Vietnam Veteran caps.
        Ugh.

      2. I have a friend who has PS. Not as bad as this–he can hold down a job, but still a bit spooky. Hell of a nice guy, though.

        On the other hand, there is a lot of stuff on television & the internet that sounds a lot like this from supposedly sane and well-adjusted people.

  7. Sounds like he did to much LDS at Berkeley, someone name the movie that came from!

    1. Is that Church of Latter Day Saints (LDS) or Lysergic acid Diethylamide (LSD)?
      Was that where Spock was being all moody?

  8. Well, we know cuts are coming at DoD under Biden so we can start by firing all the joint chiefs and replacing them with Big D here.

  9. I feel sad for this guy. He has problems with his reality.

    I meet people like this in my job (paramedic) and they are missing a connection to reality

    While it is stolen valor, it’s more the stolen valor of a five year old wanting to be like others in the only way they can figure out.

    Just very sad.

  10. I have voices in my head but the real problem is that they don’t always agree with each other.

  11. Honestly, I’m feeling bad for the dude. He and reality had a bad breakup and she took all his stuff on the way out.

  12. Incoming….
    A possible whopper of a new MP/VG Stolen Valor story on the way.
    Paste from a concerned female relative in a FakeBook group:
    [He was special forces in Viet Nam, but:
    This individual claims
    POW VietNam
    2 bronze stars
    silver star
    7 Purple Hearts
    He is an member of my extended family
    and I can’t find any verification of anything.]

    I referred her to this link.
    I hope she sends it in, quickly.

    1. MarineDad61: if he’s alive today and is not listed on one of these lists, he is not recognized by DoD as having been held as a POW in SE Asia.

      https://www.dpaa.mil/portals/85/Documents/VietnamAccounting/pmsea_escapee.pdf

      FWIW: these lists respectively include those who were MIA in SE Asia but were later accounted for (e.g., came back in a box vice alive) and those still unaccounted for (includes KIA/body not recovered and presumptive fining of death status):

  13. This guy has academic potential, could be a professor of liberal logic or maybe even sociology.

    More credibility than John Fonda-Kerry and Senator Blumenthal, combined.

    1. Pick any bum at the local bus stop and they will have more credibility that Skerry Kerry or Da Nang Dick.

  14. This guy is definitely All Points Logistics material. Just the caliber of man that Phil Monkress needs to head up the Reston VA office.
