As many of you know, I was pretty sick earlier this year. Robert Stanley McCormick<\/a> took advantage of that and launched a campaign against my inbox with several of his friends. They flooded my email with physical and legal threats to the point that I had little time or strength for anything else. So I just took the post about him down – a post that had stood for nearly three years. <\/p>\n

This weekend, he launched a similar campaign against our partners using the fact that I removed his post as proof that he was indeed a special forces qualified soldier.<\/p>\n

Honestly, I’d just forgot about the whole thing – McCormick should have done the same, but he didn’t, so I restored his post last night. <\/p>\n

Scotty sends<\/a> us his work on Robert Stanley “Bo” McCormick<\/a>. Green Beret Posers Exposed, Guardians of Valor and Professional Soldiers are supposed to be working on posts abut him, too. But as you can see in the picture above, he’s claiming to be a Special Forces-qualified veteran by wearing the full 10th SF Group (Germany) flash on his beret and by the Special Forces Qualification Tab on his vest. He’s also wearing a Diver Badge and jump wings. Well, some of that is true; <\/p>\n

He graduated from jump school and went to Special Forces Training from August – November of 1966 as an Engineer, but he didn’t graduate and he went to 10th Special Forces Group in Germany (although it looks like there’s a error on the 2-1 that says he went to 1st SFG – but the 10th was at Bad Tolz, FRG, US Army Europe (USEUR) There is a picture on his Facebook page<\/a> that shows him wearing a school flash on his beret). If I’m not mistaken, in those olden times, he would have worn a “candy stripe” on his beret, not a full flash, signifying that he was assigned to an SF unit, but not SF qualified.<\/p>\n

Although his records indicate that he graduated from jump school, he didn’t attend or graduate from the Army combat divers course. Also his records indicate that he was assigned to 10th SFG as a unit armorer and supply sergeant.<\/p>\n

I guess he was founder of the Special Forces Motorcycle Club<\/a> and they could find nothing that supported his claims of being SF qualified. “Bo” told them that, even though he failed the course, Colonel Beck (Beckwith?) “awarded” him the qualifier and being a supply clerk in the 10th Group in Germany made him SF qualified. So they booted his ass.<\/p>\n
