Our Partners at Stolen Valour – Canada share with us their research on this fellow, David Eugene Christie, yet another Canadian who falsely claims service alongside US troops in Vietnam.
At Medium, he claims that “They called me their angel from the sky” because he thinks that he was a medic for US Marines. At Comes a Soldier’s Whisper he whines about his PTSD and his war injuries.
According to SV-C, Christie had just three months in service and he never deployed to Vietnam, if you couldn’t tell by his amateurish scribbles. The Canadians didn’t feel obligated to send troops to Vietnam because of the American draft dodgers hiding out in Canada – that’s just stupid.

Posing as David Niven too?
Be cool ’bout Mr. Niven, now… a commando in WWII.
And don’t be dissing on Christopher Lee:

He is awesome, but I have always prefered Cushing
Mr. Niven was a guest panelist on “What’s My Line?” in the late 50s and one of the contestants was a Scottish bagpiper who had been in his regiment. When the questioning got to Mr. Niven, it went something like this:
NIVEN: Twenty years ago, were you on the island of Malta?
CONTESTANT: Yes.
NIVEN: Were you a member of a very famous Highland regiment?
CONTESTANT: Yes.
NIVEN: Did you have the misfortune to have me as your officer?
CONTESTANT: Yes.
And hilarity ensued. The episode is on YouTube, and the contestant is the last one:

“I will, however, tell you just one thing about the war, my first story and my last. I was asked by some American friends to search out the grave of their son near Bastogne. I found it where they told me I would, but it was among 27,000 others, and I told myself that here, Niven, were 27,000 reasons why you should keep your mouth shut after the war.” David Niven
“On another occasion, asked how he felt about serving with the British Army in Europe, he allegedly said, “Well on the whole, I would rather be tickling Ginger Rogers’ tits.” David Niven
“Young man, you did a fine thing to give up your film career to fight for your country. Mark you, had you not done so − it would have been despicable.” Winston Churchill to David Niven
Nice going there cocksucker, Eh?
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
Shack, eh?
How come those greens still seem baggy on him? Did they grow with his girth as he aged?
That is because those giant ants, that we shot at, got me and a few of my battle buddies with their fricken acid. They called me the “angel” because I did not wait to hit the ground to start shooting those giant ants. I fired away at them as I controlled my parachute during my progress to the ground.
Saw my rounds hit those giant insects, watched those giant ants shoot up from where I shot them, then watched them land in the same trajectory that they shot up at. One of them darn near hit me on the way up, but I skillfully maneuvered out of that giant dead ant’s way.
I have that guy that skydives in a purple suite to thank for that skill. He is everything that he claims to be, I know, I was there. Well, anyway, giant ant acid burned a part of me off, and that is why my uniform looks baggy on me. They fit me before I got hit.
The material used to make my uniform is classified, so do not ask me why my uniform is not tattered or incomplete.
Hey, were you that combat drop onto Big K too?
I would like to know more….
Service guarantees citizenship! The Mobile Infantry is recruiting NOW! We need YOU!
Marine Good Cookie, too. This guy is a soup sammich.
Yup…them Marine Medics and Army Corpsmen….always there to save the day.
Thought it was pronounced “Corpse-men.” Right, Barry?
/sarc
Attached to US Army SEALs, Marine PJ’s and USAF Special Forces, eh?
David Eugene Christie is full of shit and a fucking lying sack `o dicks.
I hear Fat Bastard saying “I’m dead sexy” when I look at that glamour shot of him in his beret.
Dunno. I was thinking the glamour shot was saying either, “I’m a steely-eyed killer and your ears better point when you talk to me,” or “I really really need to go to the bathroom”…
Certainly a shit-hot Dustoff Medic…no as you were. A badass SAR Corpsman…no wait. Anyway I stand in awe of this, glass bottle , straight needle IV starting hero….no, just kidding. He’s just another sad jackass.
Fuckin’ Hoser Poser!
I LMFAO at his unformed pastry chef beret and that OD uniform that has been obsolete for 15 years or so.(with a CADPAT name tape of course)
Then those awards, total legit
1st MarDiv did not have a 2d Regiment. 2d Regiment was part of 2d MarDiv. Neither 2d Marines nor 2d MarDiv ever came any where close to Vietnam. It’s always the actual historical details that trip up these fuckers…
He has to have served in the Viet of the Nam. He has a booney hat folded up and tucked under the epaulet of his jacket in one of the photos.
I am happy to report that despite this clown’s personal memorial to an Ivan Jones, no one by that name was KIA in Vietnam.
What a cluster fuck of a picture in the salute picture. Heels as far apart as Madonna’s legs, Head tilted like Hillary Clinton seconds pre-seizure, raggy clothes like Sheila Jackson Lee, and a meat gazer stare like Bradley Manning!
Give it a rest you fucking Canuck, eh?
Do you think he likes playing dress up like this for the fellas or the kids?
This dude is definitely a couple pence short of a pound.
Another pisspants booger-munching thumbsucking bedwetting blubber-necked meat gazer.
Hey David Eugene Christie, TAKE OFF, HOSER!!!
Is that a 1920s US Navy china river patrol boat combat action ribbon?
He was posing as Jake Holman too
A badass Snipe, if there ever was one.
That poppy he’s sporting looks rather much like me…I really never thought I was so…pretty!!!
He looks like the legendary shower of shit. Probably because he is……
The Cock-Slurper even fucked up his in memory of decoration. The Ivan Jones that died in Vietnam was the victim of a negligent discharge from a pistol while he was in the rear assigned to 3rd Bn 3rd Marines. He wasn’t in the 101st
Correction, he was in the field not in the rear.
You and 2/17 need to get your stories straight here. One sez there was, one says there wasn’t.
Couldn’t take the real military longer than 3 months. Can’t even get simple stuff right.
He doesn’t measure up and he knows it. What a pathetic ass.
I thought he was trying to pull of CPL Peacock from The Devil’s Brigade.
