The folks at Military Phony<\/a> sent us their work on this David Lewis Lowrimore fellow.<\/p>\n

Lowrimore died on March 22, 2019 and was 68 years old when he passed away.<\/p>\n

In his obituary, it said he served in the US Navy and was a Navy SEAL.<\/p>\n

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

This same obituary, and by proxy the Navy SEAL claim, was carried across several newspapers.<\/p>\n

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

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

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

Folks in the Stolen Valor community were contacted to verify the SEAL claim so the BUD\/S-SEAL database was checked along with other resources.\u00a0 His name was not listed anywhere as being a Navy SEAL.<\/p>\n

Lowrimore’s military records were ordered through a Freedom of Information Act request.<\/p>\n

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

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

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

Well, as you can see – the official military records also confirm no SEAL training or SEAL assignments.<\/p>\n

He served for four (4) years in the Navy when most wouldn’t.\u00a0 He served during the Vietnam-era.<\/p>\n

It’s a puzzle how the Navy SEAL claim made it to his obituary.\u00a0 Was his family under the mistaken impression that he was a SEAL?\u00a0 Why?\u00a0 That’s pretty specific.<\/p>\n

To have honors bestowed upon someone is not fair to those that not only earned the title of SEAL and went through the training, but have lost brothers-in-arms that chose to go in harm’s way.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We just wanted to set the record straight because years from now people will see Lowrimore’s obituary and assume he was a Navy SEAL because it is right there printed in black and white.\u00a0 Lewis David Lowrimore was NOT a Navy SEAL.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
