This story is going viral.

Going to open a thread where everyone can comment.

I'm getting the warm fuzzies thinking about Oh's political career sliding down that slippery slope.

Photo 27, he writes:

"David was a U.S. Army Officer. He later served in the Special Forces."

Photo 31, he writes:

"David's nieces in 1991 after Operation Desert Storm."

He may have removed all the SF discussions from his Facebook page, but his Facebook biography still reads: "Again, with hard work and perseverance, he qualified for Officer Candidate’s School, was promoted to 2nd Lieutenant, and joined the U.S. Army Special Forces (Airborne)." http://www.facebook.com/pages/David-...834067?sk=info (you have to click the "see more" link in his biography to see it.)

From what I've seen since I've started hanging around here, your target list is going to get smaller and smaller as time goes by, Team Sergeant.

The "rat-ship" analogy.

You'll have even more time to cook next year.

Everytime we think that no one is dumb enough to place false Special Forces/ Green Beret claims on the internet we get proven wrong.

Where are our Stat's people? What sort of SF fraud frequency are we looking at?

Looks like he changed it last night. I did print out PDFs of it yesterday, though. (see below)

Just put the name in to google, and this is the first thing that popped up! Having read the thread in the Hall Of Shame, it seems this sad sorry excuse for excrement still has no problems making his claims.


http://www.davidoh.org/files/DOH_Bio.pdf

DAVID OH
SMART. TOUGH. HONEST.

"In 1988, David resigned from his position as Assistant D.A. to enlist in the U.S. Army. Though given another option as an enlisting lawyer, David chose to serve in the Infantry starting basic training as a private. Again, with hard work and perseverance, he qualified for Officer Candidate’s School, was promoted to 2nd Lieutenant, and joined the U.S. Army Special Forces (Airborne). During Operation Desert Storm, David was called to active-duty, but before he was deployed, the war ended. He received an honorable discharge and returned to Philadelphia."

Memberships and Affiliations
82ND AIRBORNE DIVISION ASSOCIATION: PHILADELPHIA HAJDAK/MOKAN CHAPTER, Trustee


POSERS BE DAMNED! Go get 'em TS!!!

Thumbs down

Upon some further digging, I found this information about Mr. Oh's affiliation with the local 82ND Chapter...

http://www.philly82nd.com/

82nd AA OFFICERS . . .
Chairman . . . . . David Oh

"Meetings are held on the first Thursday of each month at:

McMenamy American Legion
Post No. 178
8041 Frankford Avenue
[Northeast Philadelphia]
Philadelphia, PA 19136

Meetings start promptly at 8:00 P.M.
Members begin to gather for Airborne refreshments at 7:00 P.M."


And here he is posing with a Congressional Medal of Honor Recipient:

Hope you all nail this guys ass to the wall!

Give it time ma'am; an Info Op to replace the most frequent hit that pops up (and its result) is easily done. For one thing, just keep hammering the query line with "David Oh Special Forces Fraud" - his quickly spiralling credibility will be louder than "that suckin' sound" Ross Perot described.

Most Google hits for "David Oh" and "green beret" are links to news bits about how and why he is fraud, so I'd say his credibility is already entering the "death" portion of that spiral. Then again, as they say, "shoot 'till they drop"
