Our partners at Guardians of the Green Beret<\/a> share their work on this David Murphy fellow. He claims that he was a special forces soldier, a Ranger and a wounded veteran of Beirut, Just Cause, Mogadishu and who knows what else.<\/p>\n

David Murphy was sent to us by someone very close to him with questions about his claims. We took a look at his pictures and statements on a few of them and knew immediately that most, if not all he was saying was a lie. <\/p>\n

A few of his claims are Combat Infantry Badge with star, Both Master Sergeant (E-8) and\/or Chief Warrant Officer 4 (CW4) depending on the picture, Distinguished Service Cross, Silver Star, Soldiers Medal, Bronze Star, Purple Heart, Infantry Blue Cord, Jungle Expert Badge, Air Assault, Pathfinder, Jump Master, Sniper, Army Ordnance, Ranger Tab (2nd in class in 76) and also shares a picture of Graduation Ranger class 177-2. He went through twice? 101st Combat Patch, 1st Special Forces Grp, 5th Special Forces Group, CAG, Trainer at USASOC, CIA, Combat Wounded Veteran <\/p>\n

Claims to have been a Teammate and friend of SFC Randy Shughart (Medal of Honor) and MSG Gary Gordon (Medal of Honor).<\/p>\n

Every and all claims above are 100% FALSE<\/p>\n

David never spent a day in the military. The Class number he uses for his Ranger Class in the picture section isn’t how classes are numbered. That being said, we did verify with RTB and they confirmed David Murphy never attended, much less graduated Ranger school. He shares a 2nd picture from 1977 claiming it as a graduation picture. We have contacted two people in that picture and the picture was taken at Ft Lewis in 80\/81. Not in 1977 as he claims. It’s a number of Ranger medics. We have aquired all the names of those in the picture. David Murphy IS NOT one of them.<\/p>\n

He claims ODA 1220 in 1993. Four digit ODA’s didn’t come about until 2008\/9<\/p>\n

He claims CAG teammate of SFC Randy Shughart (Medal of Honor) and MSG Gary Gordon (Medal of Honor). He should be ashamed of himself. We contacted a brother that was there that day. Who served side by side with Gordon and Shurghart. He confirmed what we already knew. David Murphy was NEVER in that unit.<\/p>\n

David Murphy also claims to have been CIA. WE contacted an asset who’s former CIA and he yet again confirmed those CIA certificates are bogus.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Even his house lies about his service for him;<\/p>\n

Yeah, well, the Army doesn’t remember his service;<\/p>\n

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

They tried to call him, but he hung up on them twice, a sure sign that he’s legit and the NPRC doesn’t know what they’re talking about.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
