National Guard SGM John Letuli
Can you guess the "SPECIAL FORCES" FRAUD IN THIS PICTURE?
National Guard SGM John Letuli
North Carolina Army National Guard, 30th HBCT
We've been tracking this dirtbag since last November. He's on the CSM list. He's probably still on the Army National Guard CSM list. This scumbag deployed with the 101st last NOV to Iraq, as a "Special Forces" SGM, but funny thing, Letuli ain't never been in Special Forces, ever.
You see those CSM's on the right, that's CSM Malloy, CSM of the mighty 101st Airborne Division, he's the real deal. The CSM on the far right, that's CSM Grippe, he's also the real deal. The two SGM's on the left, I don't know but I'm sure they are the real deals. That piece of shit in the middle wearing A SPECIAL FORCES COMBAT PATCH is a NORTH CAROLINA NATIONAL GUARD SGM AND A TOTAL FRAUD.
FOR SIX MONTHS WE'VE BEEN TRACKING THIS BOTTOM FEEDER WAITING FOR ACTION, NOTHING, NOTHING AT ALL. NOW HE'S GOING TO BE FAMOUS. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO COPY THIS AND SEND IT TO EVERY MILITARY WEBSITE YOU KNOW. THIS SCUMBAG SHOULD BE IN JAIL, BUT HE'S WALKING ABOUT USING MILITARY BENEFITS AND WILL MOST LIKELY BE ALLOWED TO RETIRE AS A SGM. AS FAR AS I KNOW NOTHING IS BEING DONE TO HIM, NOTHING.
[Edit to add, we've been tracking this dirtbag since SEPT of last year, not NOV, I just checked my emails.]

From Samoa to Iraq, Via North Carolina
Getting your face in in the local newspaper, great, standing next to the 101st CSM for a photo op, outstanding! Getting busted wearing a SPECIAL FORCES COMBAT PATCH THAT YOU DID NOT EARN, PRICELESS!!!!!
From Samoa to Iraq, Via North Carolina
By Sgt. Robert JordanPublished: August 16, 2009
Posted in: News
BAGHDAD — The U.S. Army is the biggest “family” in the world, spread across thousands of miles, but for one Soldier the familial relations seem surprisingly close to home.
Command Sgt. Maj. John Letuli, of Lillington, N.C., with Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 30th Heavy Brigade Combat Team, found a tie to his native Samoa with four other senior enlisted U.S. Army leaders in Iraq.
They have all served with U.S. Pacific Command Sergeant Major Iuniasolua Savusa, who assumed the Camp Smith, Hawaii-based position this summer. Savusa’s last post was as command sergeant major of NATO’s International Security and Assistance Force and U.S. Forces in Kabul, Afghanistan.
Letuli, who claims ties to Iliili/Futiga, American Samoa, and Malie, Independent State of Samoa, deployed as the Iraqi security forces team Multi-National Division – Baghdad command sergeant major.
He shares the distinction of having served with Savusa with Iraq-based Command Sergeants Major John Swart, 30th Heavy Brigade Combat Team; Lawrence Wilson, Multi-National Force – Iraq; Rory Malloy, Multi-National Division – Baghdad and Frank Grippe, Multi-National Corps – Iraq.
Letuli says he looked up to Savusa throughout his time in service. “He is an inspiration,” said Letuli. “We all admire him. He has done so much, and everybody speaks highly of him.”
As the Iraqi security forces team sergeant major, Letuli works with Iraqi security forces and all branches of U.S. forces in the country.

Incredible.
Six months and no action.
Looks like someone is trying for a cover up, just waiting for it to blow over.
If I were one of the CSMs in the pic, or his commander, I would be pissed.

You would think that, AR 670-1, the UCMJ, and the Army Values would as well.

Sent e-mail to CSM Savusa
Hey to all, below is the e-mail I just sent to CSM Savusa. Included is the CSM's email. Hope this helps bring the dirt bag dow.
CSM Savusa, Hey there you may not remember me; CSM(R) Earnie Holifield we lived across the street from each other at Fort Campbell. Before I go any firther congrats on your continuing climb in the CSM ranks and a job well done.
I saw a picture of you on the internet with several CSM (while) in Iraq. One of the CSM’s is an individual named Letuli. He has a SF combat patch and is wearing an SF tab……Both of which are unauthorized and unearned. His record in all over “The Quiet Professionals” web site as a fraud and apparently has been called on it several times but is still wearing unauthorized badges and patches.
I would appreciate it if you could take time from your busy schedule to look into this issue as it is a big one to us in and around the SF community. V/R, CSM (R) Earnie Holifield
PS: for those who want it to contact CSM Savusa - PM me. Edited by Richard.

Wow
Perhaps if you live away from the flagpole the Army doesn't care as much? I recall a SGM in SWC getting in BIG trouble for wearing a Ranger Tab, Scuba bubble, and MFF wings he was not authorized back around '98ish. He DID earn his SF tab, but that was it. Sad part was he was well liked and respected, and a damn good company SGM, then that. Ugh... How insulting to the whole community, but not nearly as bad as this assclown. grr
So is the POW network in on exposing this guy, and what else can we do? How can I help?

SGM Letuli
SGM Letuli, either you are or you are not.
There is no middle ground.
So just when did you go to the Q Course?
Which SF Group did you serve overseas with and when?
Simple answers work best.

SGM Letuli was asked this very question and lied.
I'm sure SGM/CSM Letuli will now retire will full military benefits.
SGM/CSM Letuli probably didn't realize that wearing a Special Forces COMBAT PATCH that he did not earn, was just a little mistake and will be overlooked by his North Carolina National Guard Command and the US Army.

I just wanted to make sure that everyone also know this scumbag is also wearing an SF "TAB" he did not earn.
Five bucks says he walks with full military benefits, E-9 rank and an honorable discharge.
We've also found out this individual has been engaged in this sort activity (pretending to be a Special Forces soldier) since he was a SSG.
I'm sure his North Carolina National Guard Commander is proud of National Guard SGM John Letuli.
