The wonderfully talented and brilliant folks at militaryphony.com<\/a> send us their case on David Gordon Jeffrey Jr<\/a>.\u00a0 David is 72 years old as of February 2019.<\/p>\n

David has a biography posted on Prabook that claims that he was awarded a Silver Star, Bronze Star and Purple Heart. It also claims he was a First Lieutenant in the U.S. Army Airborne Rangers from 1967-1969.<\/p>\n

On his\u00a0LinkedIn<\/a>\u00a0account, it says that he was in the Army from June 1968 to July 1974 \u2013 six (6) years and two (2) months. It also claims the rank of Captain along with being an Intel Officer whose duties are classified.<\/p>\n

Here is where it gets interesting. He posted a photo on his Facebook account and said it was him 45 years ago. Since it was posted a year ago that would make the photo from 1973, give or take.<\/p>\n

There is a strong implication that this is him in his younger days. He never corrected anyone when they also drew this inference. David posted the same photo on another account stating that he was proud to serve. Again, an implication this was him.<\/p>\n

Then he posted another one claiming it was from 1980, just 7 years after the above photo.<\/p>\n

One of our research ninjas pulled up this photo of Kris Kristofferson (actor and singer) and it looked really similar — except for the head, rank and Airborne patch.<\/p>\n

When we discovered that David\u2019s son James does not show a record of military service \u2013 the question arose as to why it appears as if he would dress in an Army Ranger fatigue uniform \u2013 or more probably allow himself to be Photoshopped in an Army uniform? We don\u2019t know if he was a willing participant but the beret looks authentic as it rests on his head\u2026 meaning not Photoshopped. Who knows, maybe he is just a dead ringer for the old man at that age.<\/p>\n

Here is a photo of David (father) and James (son)\u2026<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

David Gordon Jeffrey\u2019s military records were ordered through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.<\/p>\n

FOIA RESULTS<\/h4>\n

NATIONAL PERSONNEL RECORDS CENTER \u2013 NPRC<\/strong><\/p>\n

FOIA Results for David Jeffrey \u2013 Summary Sheet<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

David Jeffrey\u2019s summary sheet shows no active duty service. He was discharged from an ROTC program as a Private, the lowest enlisted rank one could have in the Army. It may have been due to not fulfilling his obligation to drill or perhaps he wanted out and that is normal for a discharge?<\/p>\n

It could have something to do with all the anti-war stuff he was publishing at the time.<\/p>\n

You really need to visit the\u00a0militaryphony<\/a>\u00a0site to get a whole lot more on this clown’s background.<\/p>\n

There are many issues with the photos of young David, civilians might think they are real pictures of him from back in the day.\u00a0 We are here to help clear all that up for Mr. Jeffrey.<\/p>\n

Since somebody likes to photoshop pictures of\u00a0Kris Kristofferson I thought what the hell, maybe this one will fit in nicely to the phony collection of pictures.<\/p>\n

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

According to some of the stuff posted online, David Gordon Jeffrey is also a man of God.\u00a0 A minister of some kind.\u00a0 I think its best to quote Kris Kristofferson at this point:<\/p>\n

\n
See him wasted on the sidewalk in his jacket and his jeans,
\nWearin’ yesterday’s misfortunes like a smile
\nOnce he had a future full of money, love, and dreams,
\nWhich he spent like they was goin’ outta style
\nAnd he keeps right on a’changin’ for the better or the worse,
\nSearchin’ for a shrine he’s never found
\nNever knowin’ if believin’ is a blessin’ or a curse,
\nOr if the goin’ up was worth the comin’ down<\/div>\n
He’s a poet, he’s a picker
\nHe’s a prophet, he’s a pusher
\nHe’s a pilgrim and a preacher, and a problem when he’s stoned
\nHe’s a walkin’ contradiction, partly truth and partly fiction,
\nTakin’ ev’ry wrong direction on his lonely way back home.<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I understand that he has been a member of the American Legion Cesar E. Chavez Post 505 in San Francisco, CA for some time now.\u00a0 We have no idea if they are aware of his nonsense.<\/p>\n
