La’Baron Lee Johnson; phony SEAL

Our partners at Military Phonies share their work on this fellow La’Baron Lee Johnson who claims that he was a Lieutenant Commander (O-4) and a Navy SEAL.

Based off of Labaron Lee Johnson DD-214, he initially served on active reserves for 2 years, 9 months, 4 days. Labaron was discharged as RM3 (E-4) Radioman. Labaron did receive a Sea Service Deployment Ribbon. It looks like Labaron obtained his commission in the Navy Reserves and resigned it as a Lieutenant (O-3). This service shows that he didn’t attend BUD/S, NO SEAL Command and he wasn’t a SEAL.

UPDATE: After we posted this, we discovered that LaBaron passed away less than two years ago.

  1. This guy is too easy. The Baron can’t spell the rank he claims to have held. As I’m sure many who know have said, “He just ain’t right.” Love the pose where it appears he is either pulling up his zipper or grasping his junk while staring at it. Roll tide.

    1. oh is that what it was? I thought it was the new cover for some R&B bullshit. you know, where 5 black guys with no shirts whine about how fine a girl is and strike dramatic poses like that one.

  2. This sonovabitch was dumb enough to be photographed wearing an Auburn shirt. Nuff said. Rolllllll Tide! (and just to keep me from being hurt here, Go Hogs!)

    1. MS from University of Arkansas, Fayetteville. GO HOGS!!

      My team, though is the TIDE. GO TIDE!!

    1. Jonn, just sent you via email his obituary from December 2016.

      It is him. The picture on the obituary matches his Facebook picture.

  3. Apparently in death, SV follows him. Per his grave marker, it looks like it has him listed as an RM2. Anyone wanna bet he also has a trident on it?

    1. Jay:

      His gravemarker is annotated as:

      LT US NAVY RESERVE
      RM2 US NAVY
      PERSIAN GULF

      He was cremated, so probably no headstone. Just a marker.

      Am speculating that since he was buried in a Military Cemetary in Montevallo, Alabama, most likely no Trident on the Marker.

      Perhaps the family found out the truth on his SEAL claim when submitting documents for his burial. And if they did find out the truth, have symphany for the family.

      Sad. So sad the families have to pay emotionally for their loved ones embellishment and lies.

  4. The Navy Reserve Medal on his rack is a nice touch. It hasn’t been awarded since 1958. Someone didn’t research his phony story too well.

    1. In fairness, the Good Cookie, NDSM, and Sea Service ribbons are probably legit for an RM3. Pretty sparse for a SEAL LCDR, though.

  5. An O-4 with a trident and only one row of ribbons. Yeah, right, that is believable; (NOT).
