Just A Grunt sent me a link the other day<\/a> to this story, and it’s a goody. Apparently the Cobb Public Safety Director Mickey Lloyd has been playing SEAL for quite some time. he’s even an expert on John Kerry;<\/p>\n

Lnenicka said Lloyd told him he was a “gunner’s mate and a SEAL in a sister unit to John Kerry’s unit.”<\/p>\n

“He talked a lot about being a part of the Riverine task force,” Lnenicka said. “He told me about his disgust for John Kerry because Kerry ordered his men to withdraw while under fire without picking up the bodies of American soldiers who were left behind.”<\/p>\n

I guess if you’re a phony, link your story to another phony for some credibility.<\/p>\n

Lloyd gave the county HR department a DD 214 form on March 22, for retirement incentive purposes, showing Lloyd earned the National Defense Service Medal and the Vietnam Service Medal, said county spokesman Robert Quigley. But two weeks ago, Lloyd delivered a different DD 214 to the county’s HR department to be “included in his personnel file,” Quigley said.<\/p>\n

That DD 214 has those two medals listed plus the Presidential Unit Citation, the Navy Unit Citation, the Combat Action Ribbon, two Bronze Stars and the Silver Star.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The local TV station <\/a>tells a little more about the two DD214s;<\/p>\n

The first DD 214 lists only two decorations: the National Defense Medal and the Vietnam Service Medal.<\/p>\n

The second DD 214 is nearly identical, including the signatures, but lists 5 additional medals, including the Presidential Unit Citation, the Navy Unit Citation, Combat Action Ribbon as well as two Bronze and one Silver Stars for valor.<\/p>\n

The word “citation” is also misspelled on two award listings. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I guess he’s from Geoffrey Millard<\/a> School of Veteran Fakery – if you had wished you had done more, you just add it to your records. And he must’ve taken lessons from Jesse MacBeth who had a few spelling errors on his fake 214.<\/p>\n

Well, POW Net has Lloyd’s number<\/a> and if the Cobb County HR folks want to dick around waiting for the records and pay the little phony with their thumb up their collective ass, that’s fine. lloyd could at least have the decency to come clean now that he’s busted. I guess he’s going to use the old “secret records” or “Navy SNAFU” excuse. Loser.<\/p>\n

I’m thinking I’m going to forge a DD214 and pass it around…one that says I was a cook and a file clerk in 379th Messkit Repair Company in Wisconsin. I’ll be the first one to NOT pretend I’m a Ranger\/SEAL\/Sniper\/Sapper\/Force Recon\/Green Beret. I think I’ll award myself the Expert Driver badge, too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
