And I mean funny like a red hot poker in the arse (a la Mel Brooks) not &#8220;ha ha&#8221; funny.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CLAIMS:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Assumption University <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>MS \/ Study Master of Science in Counseling Psychology (MSCP) , Business Psychology , 1995 \u2014 1997 <\/p>\n<p>Activities and Societies: Volleyball Team, Mensa International <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Again, right in the middle of his Army Career, they send a Intelligence guy (or linguist, or infantry guy) to school for Psychology.  I found &#8220;Assumption College&#8221; in Mass, but that would be weird, since he has no Massachusetts mailing addresses.  There are two &#8220;Assumption Universities.&#8221;  One fits well with the rest of his narractive, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.au.edu\/\">Assumption University of Thailand.<\/a>  However, it would be an odd place for a Buddhist Monk to attend:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>In loyalty to its Christian mission, Assumption University stands for<\/p>\n<p>the inculcation of respect for the three institutions of the Nation: Religion, Country, the King and a democratic way of life.<br \/>\nthe belief that a man justifies himself and his existence by the nobility of his work.<br \/>\nthe commitment to be a light that leads men towards the true source of all knowledge and life.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>CLAIM:<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center and School<br \/>\nGraduated , SERE, PSYOPS &#038; Strategic Intelligence , 1994 \u2014 1995 <\/p>\n<p>Activities and Societies: Yes, I was both Active &#038; Social here. (That&#8217;s a hint that if you wish to know more of what I did there, please ask me in private.) <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In a word, BWAHAHAHAHAHA.<\/p>\n<p>I also have been to the JFKSWCS.  I took a tour of the facility.  Nice place.  The Man Who Sees Elephants was listed as living in California during this time period.  I contacted the JFKSWC and spoke with a PAO who is attempting to verify his claims.  I do have an adsress listed associated with him from Feb 1995-Jan 1997 that is in Carrboro, NC, but that is an hour and 24 minute one way trip.  The address thing isn&#8217;t always an exact science, so working on it.<\/p>\n<p>Do I take that Activites and Societies thing to mean he was also graduating Magna Cum Laude from Bone Smuggler University?  I assume so, but who knows.  I am assuming his memory of SERE is like the memory seered into John Kerry&#8217;s memory.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CLAIM:<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Purdue University<br \/>\nBS , Psychology with Minor in Linguistics , 1988 \u2014 1993 <\/p>\n<p>Activities and Societies: Mensa International. Delta Chi Fraternity. Instructor, Purdue Aikido Club. Volleyball Club Sport Team, Master&#8217;s Swim Team. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>OK, so once again, more school, no military.  Apparently he spent his 20 years in the military hopping to different schools.  I will run his timeline in the next full post, just so you can keep track.<\/p>\n<p>The dates on this match.  I have addresses all over the West Lafayette region.  I believe someone is trying to verify that part now.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CLAIM:<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Defense Language Institute<br \/>\nBA , German. Tested out of French, Italian &#038; Thai , 1984 \u2014 1985 <\/p>\n<p>Activities and Societies: 1985 Soldier Of The Year, U.S. Army &#8211; Defense Language Institute<br \/>\nSpecial Operation Forces w\/ a speciality in Personal Protection Details, Intelligence and PSYOPS (Psychological Operations) <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>OK, so a bunch of commenters said you couldn&#8217;t test out of languages like that then.  I have no clue.  I don&#8217;t have mailing addresses that far back on his background.  I contacted the DLI Alumni Association.  They haven&#8217;t been particularly helpful yet, but working on it.  If I had to guess, I would say he did go to DLI.  Either way, Special Ops doesn&#8217;t run shit out of DLI according to everything I read.<\/p>\n<p>Now, he doesn&#8217;t claim Stanford on his Linked In site.  But he does on his Friendster site:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>College\/University:<\/p>\n<p>Stanford University, Attended 1999 &#8211; 2005, Class of 2005, Ph.D., Bio-Psychology<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Seems odd to leave that out, no?  I mean, wouldn&#8217;t your doctorate be something you listed on your professional page, and less so on your personal one?  If I was looking for a job, I would list Law School at GMU over Mt Everett Regional High School.  Maybe I am just wacky that way.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, someone asked, so looking at his record, I find addresses in Stanford and San Jose during the time he is claiming to have been at Stanford.  Hoping someone can research that for me and see if they can find anything.<\/p>\n<p>I just heard from the Spec Ops folks, I need a SSN, working on that.  I have most of it already, but missing last 4.  I believe I should have shortly.<\/p>\n<p>My next post will be a time line of his claim.  Should be fun.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and I have seen the elephant.<\/p>\n<p>But not during the civil war, where I only served as a Drummer Boy in AP Hill&#8217;s Brigade, and i hid during the battles, because anything with a prehensile nose needs to be avoided, be it an elephant or Barbra Streisand.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Continuing on&#8230;.
