SF guy writes new book MI VIDA

[hdgb]

Anybody know this guy? Joseph Nathaniel Harris
Got alot of generic SF/ranger stuff up on his FB page website.
Claims service w/ 7thSFGA 12th gp, ranger bn .. I guess this book is about his life and trying to bring attention to undeclared war in Central america. Claims 100% disabled PTSD from service during that time?
I haven't read it. was wondering if this guy is legite as several innocent inquiries have turned up some very concerning anomlies in his story.
I'm in the skeptical camp and i know there are guys on here who will set me straight if this guy turns out to be the real deal.
Chow line is Open!

This all started when an SF brother called him on his 7th Grp Flash in his book. He claims to have been in 7th Grp. Then he said he was only attached to 7th Grp.l When asked for a name, he gave him mine. I never served with him. I messaged him on facebook and he said he was on ODA 771 in C Co 3/7 from 84 to 86. Well, ODA 771 was my team. I was on it from 83 to 88. Also, ODA 771 is in A Co, not C Co. When I told him that, he said he can't remember anything because he has PTSD.

Jeez. I don't have PTSD. I just have CRS.

This guy is a fraud. Nuff said from me.

Be well - Rick

So I am thinking of notifing his publisher. Turns out it is Xlibris. A self publisher. So basically, Harris is his own publisher, with Xlibris taking a cut for services and probably some sort of mechanical royalities I suspect.

” To me, MI VIDA is a Latino Forest Gump story. The major difference is that MI VIDA is based on my true story of growing up in difficult circumstances; joining the military to be a cook only to end up in the Rangers and Green Berets"

I've no idea who this guy is but we're receiving request after request to find out who he is....

He's written a book, which opens him up to public scrutiny.

Let's find out who he is.....

Please feel free to post his "claims".

Well dam! If they had the internet 40 years ago I would have known that I didn't ever have to work for a living and just claimed full PTSD and laid in bed or gone hunting everyday. I feel like such an idiot to have spent so much of my life working.

Mr. Harris's resume, available here, is interesting in that his career progression appears to go backwards. Also, his list of accomplishments seems to have grown between 4 September 2010 (the date he posted his resume) and January 2011 <<LINK>>.

Did we vett this guy nuero25 or send him packing ?

Is this the same guy ?
SAN JOSE – LAWFUEL - The Law News Wire - United States Attorney Scott N. Schools announced that Joseph Nathaniel Harris, 44, now living in Riverside, California, pled guilty yesterday to stealing computer equipment in March 2005 from the San Jose Medical Group, including a DVD with sensitive medical and personal information for almost 200,000 patients in the San Jose area. FBI agents recovered the DVD from Harris’ car in April 2005.

According to a criminal complaint affidavit and indictment filed earlier with the court as well as Harris’ guilty plea today, Harris was branch manager at the San Jose Medical Group, a medical services organization that includes hundreds of affiliated physicians in the South Bay. Harris left the San Jose Medical Group in September 2004. On March 28, 2005, employees discovered computer equipment missing from the San Jose Medical Group administrative office, including a DVD with clinic visit entries for almost 200,000 patients. The DVD included patients’ names, addresses, phone numbers, dates of birth, social security numbers, diagnoses, medical procedures, and other information. Harris kept the DVD but sold the computer equipment. FBI agents found the DVD in Harris’ car.

The indictment charges Mr. Harris with one count of theft in connection with health care, in violation of 18 U.S.C.§ 669. Today, before United States District Court Judge Jeremy Fogel, Harris pled guilty to this charge, admitting that he stole computer equipment from the San Jose Medical Group, including the DVD.

Judge Fogel has scheduled sentencing for Harris for September 5, 2007. The maximum statutory penalty for this count is 10 years in prison, a $250,000 fine or twice the gain or loss resulting from the theft (whichever is greater), three years supervised release, and restitution. However, any sentence following conviction would be imposed by the court after consideration of the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and the federal statute governing the imposition of a sentence, 18 U.S.C. § 3553.

Assistant United States Attorney Matthew A. Lamberti is prosecuting the case, with the assistance of legal assistant Susan Kreider. The prosecution is the result of an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Perfect example of how not to write a resume. I wish the VA could check if he was a MS psych type, as he could possibly fool a shrink?
