Here’s another one who thinks that he can reoffend as a valor thief because the POW Network took down their archives. Phil Rosenthal has this posted on his LinkedIn profile;
At different times in my career, I have been an athlete; a certified USA Hockey coach; a U.S. Army veteran with 9 years total experience as a helicopter/air cavalry flight leader, tank commander, small arms specialist, pathfinder and military intelligence operative….
Folks tell us that he also claims to have been a Vietnam veteran;
If he did all of that, he sure packed the training into a short span of time. The National Personnel Records Center says that he had four months and 21 days of active duty service;

Huh?!
More like “Manhole Commander”.
What a turd.
“Ballsack Warrior”
“Phildo Inspector”
“Taint Terrorist”
Assclown…
“Phildo Inspector”.
Awesomesauce!
I would also include a graduate of “Ambassador Worldwide Protection Agency” (both national and international)
Losers.
Stolen Valor, the Rancid Cherry topping the Shit Sundae.
One just has to wonder, what lies beneath?
Love his LinkedIn profile. It would be shorter to list all the things he has never accomplished during his lifetime.
The only thing he left out was he graduated high school in a class that had four boys, all four boys went to Viet of the Nam and the other three were all KIA.
Dumbass.
Aside from being a secret combat flying-tank cavalry pathfinder and rock ‘n’ roll hockey coach, it’s interesting that ol’ Phil’s actual day job was apparently as a financial adviser. It must be a real confidence builder for those needing somebody to keep an eye on their money.
LOL, he missed claiming he was a fighter pilot on Battlestar Gallactica.
Four months and a few days, huh? Yeah, that is quite a career he had there. Wow. I am so not impressed.
But I do have an idea: if he was a tanker, let’s find a tank squadron and take him along so that he can spend some quality time showing them how to drive one of those big ol’ iron maidens.
I want to see him bust track…
+1
With no power tools. “Like they did back in Nam”
I musta been on sick call in Knox the day we did air cav flight leader training.
Busting track! Screw me, that’s one hell of a thankless task, unless you’re allergic to walking…
One of my great stories about my personal awesome tankerness is having thrown a track to the INSIDE at Yakima one time. JEEZ great way to impress the PSG with ability to read the terrain huh?
Took TWO count em TWO M88’s to get that M60A1 to a point where we could get at the track…grrrr. I rock. LOL
And here I was just trying to figure out how much dental floss it takes to build a net out of dental floss that will stop an Abrams tank. I know, I know. You have to take into account the tensile strength of dental floss per fiber and also calculate the strength of bundled fibers, but there’s also that foot-pounds problem with the tank itself, moving at 30 MPHs.
I figure what would actually happen is the tank would rip out whatever was holding the dental floss net in place and get the treads tangled with it, and that would bring the whole thing to a grinding halt, after about 400 yards of forward movement.
Mobility kill!
I dunno ex-PH2. Dental floss worked mighty fine for holding down a couple of hard heads we gave a blanket party too.
We got tired of the “mass punishment” they were causing and decided to set’m straight.
Worked like a charm I might add.
I’ll bet they had great gums, too, EOD!
“helicopter/air cavalry flight leader” As a job description, that is so f’ed up it flashes like Vegas-grade neon signage. Clearly, he is a Jack (off) of all trades.
We didn’t have “flights” in the CAV. Platoons, Troops, Squadrons.
Army Aviation AIN’T the Air Force…
Yep!!!
New Joisey National Guardsman – Need I say more?
Only time on active duty was for Basic and Advanced training, then released into the wilds as a NG.
I would have thought he might have been awarded the NDSM, but maybe not. Just a Rifle BOLO Badge to his credit.
And I can see why he hid out in the Joisey National Guard – his Viet of the Nam Draft Lottery Number was 096 based on his DOB.
And now 45 years later he wants to be known as a Viet of the Nam Vet to pad his resume for rock band gigs.
Thanks a lot, Dipshit.
Looks like Phil is coming to Slammintonio in March to play music. This could be fun…
With apologies to ex-OS2:

Holy Shit? The Air Cav has flying tanks? I know the attack choppers are awesome, but flying tanks really?
What a fucking clown…
Flying tanks? Weren’t they invented by some Greek fellow?
Flying tanks are fixed wing a/k/a Warthogs. There was scuttlebutt many years ago about a rotary tank but I heard that it never went into production. It was only good for one landing.
Flying tank = Russian Hind-D
Or a Russian IL-2 Sturmovik from WWII.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilyushin_Il-2
I can honestly say I have seen Tank Paratroopers…of course, I was watching “Ren and Stimpy”
Well, if the Air Cav can have repelling into a hot LZ flight nurses, why not flying tanks?
At least that’s what that old Martha Raye look-alike Spec4/Colonel was telling everybody.
Martha was miles ahead prettier than that wretched zit. And Martha could sing, too.
Yes, Martha was way prettier. Old Maggie “Hot Lips” DeSanti. What a faker she was. Promoted herself twice while in retirement and awarded herself a Silver Star, all while never serving a day in uniform.
What was it the Master Blaster said about her? Oh, Yeah:
“She is as ugly as a bucket full of mortal sins.”
Master Chief hit the nail on the head on that one.
Looks about ten years too young for Vietnam. I had a parking attendant pull the Vietnam vet claim when he was also clearly too young.
Makes you wonder how these guys get away with their bull for so long.
Note to He Who Shall Not Be Named:
Check DOB on DD214. He’s old enough to be your father.
Yeah, couldn’t see it clearly on my phone. Downloaded the full size image so I could zoom in.
I stand corrected. He is old enough. Parking attendant wasn’t but this guy was.
One thing Lars contributes to TAH that isn’t commie bullshit but actually on topic and related to SV and…it’s wrong. Of course, it isn’t his fault. It’s his phone’s fault.
He couldn’t see it clearly. He’d need a glass bellybutton to read it.
And a flashlight; it’s dark in there.
What the fuck Phil!?!
I wonder what other chickenshit stunts he’s been pulling? Stolen Valor is usually the fly turd garnish atop a shit sundae!
When did the Army start letting tank crewmen fly helicopters and commander aviation units?
I missed that whole program somehow…
Watch the movie “Tank Girl”. That will bring you up to date.
LOL Hey I liked that movie a lot…hmmm or maybe it was Winona Rider. Any tank or pc I was in NEVER have that much room on the inside.
A flying tank would be cool as heck, but I think the Air Force has them, unless…we could get a bunch of Hinds from the Russians? But that’s more like a flying Bradley.
Hmmm… Perhaps a small correction: Winona Rider-Not. Lori Petty-Yes.
Claw, thanks for squaring me away. MMMMM Jet Girl!

Team TAH:
Check out the Facebook comments that are coming in up at the top of this page.
This is gonna get good…
And his Facebook is now unavailable…sock puppet should arrive here shortly to defend her man (himself)….
Shack!
Looks like it’s time to put the TAH Sock Puppet trip flares out around the perimeter.
Trip flares set, sir.
Aye; thanks!
CAN I add a Claymore or four, PUH-LEEZE?! Maybe garnish them with a few WP Grenade boobytraps?
Aye; please do!
Foo gas. Lots and lots of foo gas.
Aye; keep piling it on!
With some Grapeshot Charges for extra measure! 😈
I’m liking how this is going.
The sockpuppets will really enjoy this.
And concertina wire.
Lots of concertina wire.
You need some feces dipped punji sticks. Give me a few minutes; be right back.
Roger that!
Done…and Done!
You guys for got FLAIR!!! FLAIR and BLING are the most important parts of any unit, mechanical or otherwise. How could you forget that????
Phil says he feels terrible but that he did, in fact, serve in the Guard in all of the capacities he listed. I wonder when he fit some flight training into his busy schedule. Or maybe he spent a night at the Holiday Inn near Fort Rucker once. That would explain it.
Yup; he’s not backing off of his claims that he ‘did serve in those capacities’.
So many high-speed qualifications in such a short amount of time. How DID he manage to do it all?
Unbelievable.
Correspondence course… it was the rage in the day. Just ask any SV Ballsack Warrior.
Dude, where have you been?
The Army cross-trains pilots to be tank commanders!
Duh!
Much like the NFL cross-training quarterbacks to be nose guards.
A much more efficient system.
Not to defend this turd, but…
A personal acquaintance of mine commissioned Armor, detailed Aviation long enough to get some Aviation commands and his Master wings, but got booted back to Armor after health issues grounded him.
It can be done but I doubt during 9 years of NG service….
Sure, anything is possible. That’s what these clowns bank on. Any chance he was a pilot? No, none.
There would be another DD214 floating around out there somewhere for his flight school (ya don’t knock that out during a 2-week AT).
Maybe he meant Flight Attendant…
What? Stewardess?
Where’s his girdle? That was a required piece of clothing back then.
Youse guyse know NOTHING!! NOTHING!!
There are some things about which I am proud to claim ignorance.
Although I remember seeing my mother’s girdles hung up to dry – never could figure out why she wore those things.
No Flight Attendant, my cuz worked hard to get her wings.
I don’t know about flying tanks, but a flying monkey battalion seems doable.
I firmly believe my ex-wife commanded one!
Until that house fell on her.
Hey Phil: Looks like you are VVA eligible. They need fellas like you. The place is teeming with Vietnam ERA Veterans who wear Vietnam Veteran ballcaps. Just pay the fee and buy a cap. The circle jerk mayo substitute is free, but you have to bring your own bread. Bon appetit.
Phil, look up James Walls, you guys could hook up and work each others balls.
Cocksucker.
“Left Nut Low”, Phil…
So, there I was, crew chiefin’ for Jimmy and Phil on another harrowing flight over the A Shau valley when Phil gets a brainstorm. “Hey, what if we replace the skids with tracks and put a 105 on this bird?”
Sounds like as good an idea as any.
Jimmy Low Balls has every idiot over there on his Huey Page convinced the Air Cav had Quad 50’s mounted on both sides of their birds for aerial road convoy security.
Please tell me that you’re joking about those posers talking about pairs of Quad 50s on Hueys.
But then again, I keep forgetting that helicopter aerodynamics and weight & balance considerations are irrelevant/meaningless in the Stolen Valor world.
Mick, if you really want to laugh your ass off, check out the UH-1 Huey Helicopter Facebook page, it is a hoot.
Yeah, I was “kind of” joking about that, but when Jimmy Low Balls can keep 22,000 group members believing he was a Spec4 repair parts man helicopter pilot, Quad 50’s on a Huey isn’t too far out of the realm of possibility.
As awesome as Quad 50s on a Huey sounds, the laws of physics says no. And ye cannot change the laws of physics, laddie!
Just wait until you hear about the Chinook that can fire tomahawk missiles!
“Sure Phil, after you suck my cock.” Jimmy opines.
Phil, you say “I served in all those capacities in my Guard units” – as I have no intention in adding to your shame, but I have to ask. You were a Tank Commander? As a PFC? Now, I am not a tanker by any means… but just because you control the Tank a time or two, probably doesn’t mean that you are a Tank Commander.
Any tanker care to elaborate?
While I can’t speak for the tankers, I do know a bit about military aviation:
PFCs do not serve as pilots, nor do they serve in flight leadership positions.
Maybe it was Honorary, like the Honorary Chief Petty Officer rank bestowed upon Daniel Bernath.
Not sure what the TOE calls for today, if its even still called a TOE…
Tank Commanders were theoretically supposed to be Staff Sergeants (E-6’s). Since we didn’t have a whole bunch of 19E SSG’s laying around, Sergeants (E-5) also were assigned to be TC’s, this usually meant that the E-5 was pretty studly, or as in case; not quite as much of phuque up as the other guys.
I cant imagine its changed much in transitioning from good ol’ M60 series tanks to the M1’s.
Just my two cents worth.
During RVN, at least in the USMC, it was not uncommon to see a Cpl (E-4) as a T C. If you were not up to it, it was back to being a gunner in no time. If you proved you could handle it, not too long before you’d be an E-5. In spite of the ballistics computer being primitive in the old M48 A 3’s we used, sitting on top of a hill and firing for effect to establish some sort of potential target reference, the computers were very reliable when you needed to fire over friendlies to a spot across a small river without fear of a round being out of place. Simple enough to keep the data on earlier FFE rounds. Still scary as hell when you knew you were trusting mechanical equipment, and the likely consequences had something fallen short.
I’d love to have a written record of this clown and any other T C who was on a M 48 A 3
in an extended conversation.
Cool, and thanks for the clarification. I realized that TC was just for that Tank.. but a PFC that is lying about all his other jobs in the Army – most probably wasn’t a TC either.
He pulled the water buffalo behind a deuce and a half. ..
He was pullin’ somethin’ behind that deuce and a half….
Pulling on a (real) water buffalo’s dick.
LOVE the mealy-mouthed “apology” he posted on FB. For those that can’t see it I’ll quote:
Don’t you love that? Even in his “apology” he is blaming other people for what he did.
In essence, he’s saying that when he lied and said he was a tank-driving air-cav intelligence operative, it was at least partially YOUR fault for believing him! 😀
And now all of that FB apology stuff is gone, just like the LinkedIn and Phildo Band FB pages.
Seems he doesn’t like us anymore since we’re just a bunch of meanies.
And that shirt… “Phil-Harmonics” oh, brother
They play a lot of Philip Glass – because we can see right through his lies.
He plays the “skin flute”, IYKWIM….
It’s related to the peanny whistle, isn’t it?
He’s quite skilled in bone-a-fone too.
The male organ.
I think this guy might be as full of shit as my dear brother, David “Doc” Shrum, Sorry, but I have to keep his google score up there! I always wondered how my dental tech brother could get thru Jungle Warfare school and jump school as well just to go in the bush and clean some very hostile teeth??
I pity the fool that doesn’t know that you can fly a tank. The A-Team did it!

BTW, that Columbia University & Business School is about as accurate as his military service. He might have taken a certificate level course there, but no way that guy is a grad of an Ivy League business school.

Daniel Bernath sponsored him to become a member of The Radio Shack Battery Of The Month Club.
Not only that, I heard rumor that Bernath also certified him as an Aircraft Fuel Level Inspector.
He also claims he had an athletic and academic scholarship to UCLA but never finished his studies there. The UCLA’s registrar’s office does not agree with this.
HT3 – this is my surprised face. /s
“Phil spent nine years as a U.S. Army paratrooper, pathfinder, air cavalryman and tank commander is a published author on military history. He spent many years as a financial planner and is currently a financial services trainer for State Farm.”
http://www.steveslivemusic.com/stoneberrys-summer-classic-rock-roll-series-rolling-stones-tribute-band
Like a good neighbor, State Farm should check his background claims a little more thoroughly.
Mr. Rosenthal did not just claim he did all of this in the New jersey National Guard. In the past he has claimed that he was also in the Regular Army, and the Reserves. Not to mention being veteran of hand-to-hand combat in Vietnam as a member of Special Forces. He has also claimed he was a HALO paratrooper, holder of a Silver Star, two bronze stars, other decorations, and was wounded five time. He claims he was called back to active duty in Grenada, the Middle East and Afghanistan, and earned jump wings training with Israeli Defense Forces.
I think you forgot cocksucker-extraordinaire.

Phil Rosenthal is in for a surprise come Monday when State Farm Corporate reads its emails
Phil Rosenthal is entirely responsible for the creation of the old term, “When pigs fly”. In a recent remake of The Wizard of Oz, he starred in the role of the Transvestite Tank Commander (aka TTC) who was swept up in a tornado. When they landed, he made the now famous quote to his pet pig, “I don’t think we are in Port St Joe anymore Jimmy”. Little Piggy says, “Fine fu__ing TTC you are Phil. You always promised me that trip to Hawaii…When Pigs Fly. Now look at us, now that we have landed. Of all places, outside a gay bar in Atlanta. Phil, something tells me you are a bit of a bullshit artist!”
Florida AGAIN? Maybe he’ll soon be hooking up with a certain disbarred lawer.
Or seek employment at All-Points Logistics!
