Ralph Cerminara represented himself as a member of the Australian Army and promised that he would lead race riots against Middle Eastern people similar to the <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/2005_Cronulla_riots\">Cronulla riots of 2005<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>ANZMI looked into his background, which is more difficult there than it is here, because the government doesn&#8217;t have a Freedom of Information process to get a look at folks&#8217; records;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The website claims that while Mr Cerminara did serve in the Australian Army from 2002-2004, he was \u201cunceremoniously\u201d discharged on the grounds of \u201cRetention Not in the Service Interest\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>He was discharged under the rank of Gunner, otherwise known as a Private. It is just above the level of Recruit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe get information from veterans all over Australia,\u201d said Phill Hobson, a spokesman for the website.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we get the tip we go ahead and research the person. We look at their military history and write it up.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s a mongrel, the people that served with him in the army have said all kinds of reports about his horrible behaviour while he was serving.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe think he\u2019s a stupid, idiotic nut case, he\u2019s just stirring up trouble. Instead of trying to make the whole thing work, he\u2019s making it worse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHis views are not necessarily those of the people that he served with.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mary sends us a link to the Australian News about a phony who our friends at &hellip; <a title=\"Ralph Cerminara, phony Down Under\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=55116\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Ralph Cerminara, phony Down Under<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":55117,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-55116","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-phony-soldiers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55116","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=55116"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55116\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/55117"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=55116"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=55116"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=55116"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
