Mike Shane Baker, Wounded Green Beret, (Not really)

Mike Shane Baker, Wounded Green Beret, (Not really)

SFC Mike Shane Baker, Wounded Green Beret from Breckenridge County Ky. I am in receipt of your official military files from the National Personnel Records Center (NPRC).

Mike Shane Baker, Wounded Green Beret from Breckenridge County Ky. from reading your military records you and I both know you were never a Green Beret, and you never served in Special Forces and you were never a member or weapons "Specialist" with the 10th Special Forces Group. And if you were wounded four times how come there's not one mention of a Purple Heart in your official military files? (Should be four of them)

We are also in receipt of a newspaper article stating you were "the only member of your team to come home alive". I have it all Mike Shane Baker and we know you're lying.

Your official records state you left the service as a "Specialist" (E-4), that would be a far cry from SFC (E-7) as the news article states. We also know it's a hard thing to do with so many years in the service, to leave as only an E-4, you must have worked hard to stay an E-4.

The news article states that a good portion of Breckenridge County Ky. helped build you a "trike" to include high school kids, teachers, business owners, and even the local VFW. And you fooled (lied to) all of them. (You didn't fool us, the real Green Berets.)

You also owe all of them an apology. (And you should return the trike so they can give it to a real wounded veteran.)

You're a bottom feeding scumbag Mike Shane Baker, you know it, we know it and now the world will know it.

Mike Shane Baker , I hope you enjoy the media attention, you earned it.

Someone already "attempted" to contact the local VFW and they would not listen. I'm sure after it's posted here word will get out about Mike Shane Baker and his Special Forces, wounded lies.

"Mike Shane Baker" is only showing up at #6 in Google right now. I am sure in a few hours it will be at the top!!!


Mike Shane Baker is NOT Special Forces but he does lie about being a Green Beret to steal the charity of other intended for real wounded vets/heroes.

The local paper said they would be open to seeing any paper work on this subject. I have the contact info if needed.

I just spoke with some of the folks at the Breckinridge County Herald, of Hardinsburg, KY. they did not write the article themselves it was submitted by the reporter and they printed it.

Now I think they will be printing something a little different about Mike Shane Baker. We'll wait and see.

This is not the first time nor will it be the last time a fraud has duped a reporter concerning their military background.

(Isn't that right Ken Aden!)

Mike Shane Baker is a lying P.O.S. whose fabricated story of being a wounded Special Forces soldier was a figment of his little pea brained mind. Hey Mike, that bright flash you just saw was your imaginary SF career exploding into thin air when it came in contact with the cold hard fact that you were never Special Forces qualified, never served on an ODA as a Weapons sergeant and never earned the right to wear a Special Forces Tab or Green Beret. That loud roar in your ears is the echo of rightful indignation and anger that you’ve aroused in the Quiet Professional Brotherhood. I know you don’t understand or grasp what Brotherhood means since you demonstrated your total and complete lack of character by stealing the honor of our Regiment, the rightful possession of an actual wounded hero and the trust of your community. Stolen Valor may mean little to the SCOTUS or to you but to those of us whose Brothers are waiting for us in Vahalla your theft willl never be forgiven or forgotten. Let me offer you a small Irish blessing as you ride the bike you stole with your outrageous lies; “May the road rise up to meet you”

Special Forces hero Mike S Baker

I've now spoken with about five individuals from the Hardinsburg area about their local Special Forces "hero". I'm sure right now Mike Baker is feeling our anger.

I was sent this yesterday from the editor of the local news paper.

As requested...

The letter to the editor with the apology (ran September 12)
To the Editor
This is for all the
people I have hurt.
My name is Michael Baker and I have brought great shame to my military service in the war. I have never served with the elite Special Forces of this country. I have lied about being a member of these great men. I serve as a member of the military police in Afghanistan and Europe. There is no excuse for what I have done and for this I am truly sorry.
The anger and disappointment I have caused all of you is beyond measure. It is because of my actions of dishonor I have returned ownership of the motorcycle to Jim Soder for I am not befitting of such a great gift
I will live with the shame of the mistake that I have made for the rest of my life and pray everyday for God’s forgiveness. I have sought out help and extensive therapy into a veteran treatment facility where I shall remain in order to better myself.
Upon my release my release I will make personal formal apology to all those I have hurt and ask for forgiveness. I had served my country in the war with honor, however, because of my action I will never look upon my time in war as honorable. This mistake has cost me so much and I have brought shame to my family and for this I am sorry. I will not allow myself to run and hide in shame, I must do the honorable thing and admit my mistake and do all that I can to correct it. I beseech any veteran please never dishonor your service with a lie. No matter what you have done in service of our country, please be proud of it and I beg of you to learn from my terrible mistake.
We have all made mistakes in our lives; the only salvation is the truth and strength to right the wrongs in our lives. I pray that some day you will all give me a second chance to right my mistake simply by my actions and not by my word.
“A true brother never turns his back on a brother when he slips. A true brother is always there to pick him back up and help him correct his mistakes.”
I humbly bow before you as a shamed man begging for forgiveness.

Mike Baker


Here is the story which ran in the August 1 issue

CHICK RIDGE - The Herald-News has been notified by Jeff Hinton, retired Special Forces (Green Berets) master sergeant, that the story about Michael Shane Baker which appeared in the June 13 issue on Page 8B was full of falsehoods.
According to Hinton, Baker was never a Green Beret and never served in the Special Forces. Baker claims to have been wounded four times but no mention of a purple heart is listed. His record shows serving with the military police for five years and six months. His record shows he left the service as an E-4 instead of a SFC (E-7) he would have been if the story was true. He served eight years and only served one tour instead of four in a war zone.
Hinton said the worst part of the lies was the fact that many local people worked very hard to get Baker a motorcycle which was presented to him at a bike rally on June 2 through an effort by several individuals and organizations.
The bike has been returned by Baker. He apologized for embellishing his service record and just felt he had not done enough when in the service.
The Herald-News apologizes for not verifying what the individual told about his service record.

Please reply that you received this message.
Thanks.

wow - kind of sounds like he's blaming it on his "service". What an ass-clown.

However - I AM glad that he at least manned-up and admitted the fraud; that's a start.
