How about this?
Anybody have a problem if the first of next week I seek him out and ask for a meeting with him.... at that time I'll flat out ask him?
I live here in Fort Myers. I can probably get a few other members of our club, (Special Forces Motorcycle Club, Inc.) to ride with me and see what the man has to say, that is if he will even speak to me. I will tell him the truth, we are are 501(c)(19) Veterans Group, nonprofit corporation and want to get his thoughts on a couple of issues. Won't even tell him the name of our club.
See how it works out. Any thoughts on that?

Be nice - and take a local reporter with you. I'm sure the local Media would love to get the story.

Just noticed your web site. Good luck with your run for office from another another Special Forces Soldier.
Hope you get in. That will add to the current elected officials nation wide that are veterans of Army Special Forces.
I served in 5th and 3rd SFG(A) for years. What Group and ODA did you serve on. We might know some of the same people. We have a good network out there that could help, let me know.
Hope to hear from you.
Regards XXXXXXX

Mind if I use your data?
TS
Mind if I print out and take the data you provided with me?
Anyway I count this it's 20 months active duty time and he was released from
active duty right from the Q Course. Is that your take on this also? The only way this flys
is if he went in as Army Reserve and then served the rest of his time with the Reserve.
I still don't see an SF MOS anywhere in the record you posted.
Just want to be sure I have my facts straight when we go for the interview.
Just what we need in politics around Fort Myers, another friggin dishonest politician.
IE:
Derrell Douglas Gardner Jr
PFC/E-3

Job Skill 11B Infantry
Entered the Military: D.E.P. 03 May 82

assignment: Company C, 1st Special Warfare Training Battalion, JFK Special Warfare Center, Fort Bragg, NC Released from Active Duty: 01 Feb
84 (Transferred to the Individual Ready Reserve)
Discharged: 18 Aug 88 (Rank PFC/E-3)

Pete.. as suggested I will see if I can arrange for a local reporter to be there.
I think I want to buy this guy (Gardner) lunch..to make it even more appetizing.

Go for it Bo!
A local reporter already "attempted" to interview Derrell Douglas Gardner Jr concerning his Special Forces claims, and he told her "You'll have to speak with my lawyer".
The SFA attempted to contact Derrell Douglas Gardner Jr with no reply.
I can tell you there will be a newspaper article posted tomorrow concerning this individual and they even quoted someone on this website..... 
Derrell Douglas Gardner Jr ain't going to like what he reads.
You can fool just about everyone, except the real Green Beret wearing Special Forces soldiers.

Got it covered...
SOUNDS LIKE YOU GOT IT COVERED.
I will wait and see what comes up in the local paper.. Maybe a phone call to the local TV stations would be better than me meeting with him personally.
I have had pretty good luck with them in the past.
We are off to Apollo Beach today for a cookout to honor retiring MAJ GEN David Scott. He is retirng from the USAF and his last duty station is with USSOCOM.
The General has applied for membership to our organization as an Associate Member and I think all will welcome him. I'll check back in here tonight when I get back to see what has transpired with Gardner before I make a move.
You Gentleman have a great day..
Catch ya later..
Bo

Me, too. I love a good comedy.  I checked the Fort Meyers papers this morning and couldn't find anything on him other than yesterday's confirmation of his qualifying to run for Mayor.

I'm guessing the internet version of the newspaper comes out a day after it was in ink. 
http://www.news-press.com/article/20.../1085/NEWS0110
Fort Myers council, mayor hopefuls certified
Eleven candidates on Fort Myers ballot
by gabriella souza • gsouza@news-press.com • July 11, 2009
Eleven candidates for three city council positions and mayor of Fort Myers were certified Friday, the kickoff for two months of campaigning before September's primary election.
The candidates promised to run clean and positive campaigns as they got up to introduce themselves and their families.
Councilman Warren Wright, who said Friday that he will not seek re-election in Ward 1, told the candidates how special he felt when he was sworn in.
"That moment for me filled me with awe and I would hope these candidates would feel the same," Wright said.
The Sept. 15 primary election will be held for the mayoral and Ward 1 races because both have more than three candidates.
If one person wins a majority in those races, he or she will win and the race does not need to continue to the Nov. 3 general election when the Ward 3 and 5 races will be decided.
The candidates and their races are:
Mayor
- Derrell Gardner: sits on the city's planning board; local contractor- Randy Henderson: current Ward 5 councilman; vice president, Corbin Henderson Company
- Jenna Persons: Fort Myers attorney
Ward 1
-
