\"Terry<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

We wrote about this fellow Terry Sallada back two years ago and it took us this long to get his records. But back then the York Daily Record <\/a>did an article on him, you know the neighborhood ice cream truck guy who was tortured by the Viet Cong;<\/p>\n

[Terry Sallada is] 60 but trim and his hair hasn\u2019t grayed entirely. He\u2019d been a Green Beret during Vietnam, and had been a prisoner of war. Now, to help pay bills, he takes seasonal work at H&R Block. Hawking ice cream, he pulls in $75 for about three hours on a good night, which is enough to cover his inventory. But whatever. Sallada says he\u2019s more interested in meeting people, anyway.
\n[…]
\n\u201cMan,\u201d he said. \u201cThe jungles of Vietnam have got nothing on that truck.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Well, unless he went there as a tourist, Sallada has never been to Vietnam, nor did he ever serve in uniform;<\/p>\n

We warned the York Daily Record about his POW claims, so they removed the quote above about Special Forces and being a POW, but they still call him a Vietnam veteran.<\/p>\n

Folks tell us that when we first outed him based on the Department of Defense\u2019s Defense Prisoner of War\/Missing Personnel Office<\/a> records, Sallada disputed the veracity of their records, so we know that he’ll also dispute the NPRC’s lack of records. <\/p>\n

I imagine he’ll be a super secret squirrel when he reads this post about himself – you know the type, the guy who did things forty years ago that remain a secret, even though that’s complete BS. The biggest secret of WWII, the Enigma Machine, was disclosed just 25 years after the war. But, as we all know, these phonies have always done something else besides pretend about their military career. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
