Pat sends us a link to the Stars & Stripes<\/a> about Russell Richardson, who spent a few years as a defense contractor before taking a job with DoD as a science adviser based on his phony educational credentials;<\/p>\n

Russell Richardson, who earned a master’s degree from Ohio State University in 1984, says he never sought to misrepresent his credentials. Yet from 2003 to as recently as September, Richardson consistently has been characterized in news stories, company websites and his own internal Army resume as having a doctorate.<\/p>\n

“Somebody put it on a document,” Richardson said. “People have always thought it. I haven’t tried to actively go out and correct it. … I agree I should have fixed the public record better.”<\/p>\n

[…]<\/p>\n

Army spokesman MyRon Young said Richardson did not claim a Ph.D. in his formal application for the job of science adviser. However, once in the job, Richardson introduced himself as “Dr. Richardson” and passed out documents listing himself as “Dr.,” according to three Army officials who were not authorized to discuss a personnel matter by name and requested anonymity. All said it was commonly believed at INSCOM that Richardson was a Ph.D.<\/p>\n

Richardson responded, “I never introduce myself as ‘Dr.’ Never, ever. … I never represented that I had a Ph.D.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

He sounds just like the military phonies who say that they never claimed to secret squirrels or whatever – it’s everyone else’s fault. I’ll bet if they dig deeper, they’ll find other crap he’s done like our phonies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
