The folks at Military Phonies<\/a> share their work on this fellow Royal Lovejoy<\/a> who claims to have been a Navy SEAL for seven years, a Vietnam veteran, a recipient of the Navy Cross, well, here Military Phonies outlines his claims according to his uniform;<\/p>\n

He is wearing the cover of an officer. He is wearing the uniform of a Navy Senior Chief Petty Officer E8 with 4 gold hashmarks. Each hash mark represents 4 year of service equalling 16 on his uniform. Above his ribbons is the SEAL Trident. Under his ribbons is a set of officer flight wings and a Master Diver emblem. He has 25 ribbons in between all of that. The ones that can be seen are Distinguished Flying Cross, Air Medal, Joint Service Commendation, Joint Service Achievement, Navy Commendation, Presidential Unit Commendation, Joint Meritorious Unit Award, Navy Unit Commendation, Battle E, Good Conduct (1), National Defense (1), Vietnam Service, Afghanistan Service Medal, Humanitarian Service, and NATO Medal and marksmanship ribbons for pistol and rifle. The Ribbon at the very top that is hidden may be the Navy Cross.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This is from his online resume<\/a> where he claims that he earned the “flying cross” whatever that is and he has a “profational body guard license”, he was a “precher” and he has a “Comadation Medil”;<\/p>\n

Anyway, the Navy doesn’t remember his career like that;<\/p>\n

Less than three months of service, he probably didn’t graduate boot camp, his sole award is the National Defense Service Medal, he was discharged as an E-1 seaman recruit. He earned the NDSM in the final months of the eligibility period for the Vietnam War. The military stopped issuing the award in August 1974 – Royal never made it to Vietnam, he barely made it to Great Lakes Training Center.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
