Another fake hero.

Jason Truitt of Colorado had seen plenty of action. The former SEAL had served seven tours in Iraq & Afghanistan, been wounded eleven times, been shot in the stomach and had several feet of intestine removed. He had been captured twice, tortured and disfigured, and been declared Missing In Action for two months & 14 days. He lost vision in one eye.

He was reluctant to talk about his combat experience.

"I’ve been through a lot, bro,” he said bluntly. “It’s kind of hard to talk about.”


One little problem; it's as fake as an Obama speech.

When Truitt's story was printed and he received a free hunting trip and Weatherby rifle - plus gas money to make the trip - his neighbors called to say none of it was true, that he had never served. Real-life SEALs quickly busted his story, pointing out that (a) NONE of them had ever heard of him, and (b) no SEAL in history has ever been captured. (Marcus Luttrell was the only MIA, for 6 days in June 2005; he WAS NOT in enemy hands.)

Truit is not listed on the DoD register of POW's & MIA's, no Truitt of any name is listed in the SEAL database, and it is impossible to complete 7 tours of duty between 2001-2006 when you were imprisoned in 2004 for 16 months.

The organizers of the hunt, and the NRA (which donated the rifles) are going after Truitt, suing to recover the rifle and damages. An NRA spokesman said "lawyers will be involved, and there will be consequences." Bob Luna, who has hosted the hunt for the past five years, said he is not allowing this situation to slip past.

“Who would do this? We’re not letting this guy get away with this. We’re going for the gun, the money and pressing charges.”

Mr. Truitt should pray that some real-life SEAL doesn't meet up with him. They won't be after his money.

He will be listed in this hall of shame. This would be one of the most embarrassing things to have tagged on someone. Eventually, all the phonies get busted because they can study all the military jargon and history they want, but they will slip up. I have seen guys wearing rank upside down claiming it was a special award. Morons.

They hardly care. When you belong to this tiny community, you are too humble to give a damn about such meaningless thing. Tangos are still moving aroung.

Scum, I despise people who claim military service when they were no where near it.

Remember Larry Lawrence?

There was this asshole real estate developer in Chicago who used to claim that he was a combat helicopter pilot in Vietnam, it turned out he was a "Chaplain's Aid".

It knows no age group, one of the guys in the lawfirm my old man worked at who is 96, is now claiming he was a Captain in the Navy during WWII on the firms website.

Only one small problem, he was 4F at the time.

All these clowns think they can pull this off because no one who knows is alive or the people they tell their crap to don't know any better.

Look up James Shortt on Wiki and then go to ARRSE and seek out the Baron Castleshort of the SAS and other military activities.
Actionman supreme, a good read and laugh, to boot! :P

I hear there is a special place in Hell for assholes such as this. I worked with a fuck-stick once who claimed he landed a B-1 on a carrier. What he didn't realize was our boss was a real B-1 driver... Let's just say it didn't go well for him. Nothing worse than fake heroes.

It gets better, now they have completely re-written the history of the firm and erased the name of the guy who founded the firm in 1939, www.gouldratner.com . . .

They wouldn't waste their time on this worthless piece of shit, they have better things to do.

There are real people that serve, so assholes like this can run their sucking mouths.

Neighbors calling were probably saying shit like "that lazy fucker doesn't even have a job".

I got out in 72, when I went to the university, there was a guy who hung with the same group of people as I. Claimed to be a Viet Vet, former Marine, always wore a kaikai military shirt with marine sgt stripes, hair down to his shoulders, women loved him, but we started talking and he couldn't answer some questions or gave off the wall answers. He was fake as hell and I called him on it. Within a week, he had dropped out and moved. I dispise bastards like that!

Yup, Shit talkers. Sooner or later, they run into someone who will call them out. If they are lucky, they will only get off with a little embarrassment.

I called him out at a big party with all our friends. The guy was a nice guy, but that didn't hack it, pretending to be a Vet. One good thing that came out of it, women! I used to be really shy around women, but after that, they were all over me, and I'm one ugly dude, lol!
