Chief Shipley told us he wasn&#8217;t a SEAL, which is pretty obvious in his picture, and Hondo did a FOIA on his ample posterior, because he made other claims about his service that didn&#8217;t sound right. He said he was an undercover NCIS informer &#8211; but that&#8217;s not consistent with his records. Our Navy guys say he might have worked on nuclear weapons, but that doesn&#8217;t make him a SEAL, FFS.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?attachment_id=55558\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-55558\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Paul-Joseph-Connolly-FOIA-221x300.jpg\" alt=\"Paul Joseph Connolly FOIA\" width=\"221\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-55558\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Paul-Joseph-Connolly-FOIA-221x300.jpg 221w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Paul-Joseph-Connolly-FOIA-245x333.jpg 245w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Paul-Joseph-Connolly-FOIA.jpg 435w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 221px) 100vw, 221px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?attachment_id=55557\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-55557\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Paul-Joseph-Connolly-Assignments-300x271.jpg\" alt=\"Paul Joseph Connolly Assignments\" width=\"300\" height=\"271\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-55557\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Paul-Joseph-Connolly-Assignments-300x271.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Paul-Joseph-Connolly-Assignments-368x333.jpg 368w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Paul-Joseph-Connolly-Assignments.jpg 427w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>He served aboard the USS PROTEUS, a submarine tender stationed at Guam as a Gunners Mate Missile, so his nuclear weapons story might be the only true thing he told the reporter. <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/USS_Proteus_%28AS-19%29\">Wiki<\/a> says this about Connolly&#8217;s time aboard the PROTEUS;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>In 1980, Proteus was home-ported at Apra Harbor, Guam, where her missile silos had been deactivated and the missiles removed and converted to tender submarines. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Again, he flushed his honorable service down the drain with his fantastical stories. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Back in July, we wrote about Paul Joseph Connolly, who claimed to be a Navy SEAL &hellip; <a title=\"Paul Joseph Connolly; that phony SEAL\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=55556\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Paul Joseph Connolly; that phony SEAL<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":54062,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-55556","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\/55556","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=55556"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55556\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/54062"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=55556"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=55556"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=55556"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
