He was not yesterday as I offered to buy him coffee as it was about 30 degrees and he says- I have a beer to keep warm. I have given him my number plus the money to call me, and; guess what- he still does not call after agreeing to work for X an hour. Hell, I threw in food. I have offered to drive him to the VAMC for any treatment,. I have offered to drive him to the Downtown Rescue Mission which we give to. He is not going. He says he is waiting on a Gov check.

Yeah they keep meticulous records over there. Whoever helps vet that individual is held accountable should they not be who/what they say they are.
This guys story is all over the place................

Waaaaay more interesting, not to mention truthful. I loved his Venado DZ story about the tragic drowning death of Prather. What a load of hooey!

Myself and about 300 other 12th Group folks got an email from him yesterday. I was with C/3/12, 86-89 and don't remember the name or the face (he included a couple of pics in the email) but I remember a few of the guys he mentions in his email. The guys that have responded don't remember him either. He's sent several out today, something about going to a storage locker and finding all his orders.

We are monitoring this down the street also. I suspect things are going to get difficult for Mr. Harris in the near future.

B,
If this was you, it's up now:

That was a good article...BUT he is a fraud. He is not a RANGER school graduate and never served in 1/75th RGR Bn and most of his story is a mix stories he stole and of lies he has fabricated. He did not serve in any secret war, he was not a Green Beret in the 7th Special Forces Group. He is a Poser and Fraud.........His Qualifications as a Special Forces Graduate are being checked out and orders and diplomas and DD214's he has been posting on the web are all looking like fakes....... In a short time when the real DD214's from a FOIA come back the comutity will fully expose this person that is trying to get financial gaim from the blood and sweat of my Brothers in Arms.....

Something we know that Mr. Harris does not is exactly how many "Special Forces" soldiers served in the "secret" wars. I'm betting I can have someone look at those names to verify or deny Mr. Harris claims.
What Mr. Harris might not know, is in order to fight in a "secret" war you need to have a "secret" clearance.
Something else we can and will check on.
Mr. Harris, we are currently checking and when we find out what your military records say (or don't say) I might be on the phone soon to a U.S. Department Of Veterans Affairs OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL.
Your claims better be real, we are about to find out.

On page 128 of his book Harris says he received his Green Beret the same day as Duncan Lill and Matthew Courage, a graduating class of 3. Are they known?

Guys who served... in most cases honorably... yet feel the need to grossly inflate their service, as this guy has very obviously done (1. Not a tabbed Ranger. 2. Never in 3/7) piss me off waaaay more than those who never served and make wild claims.
He was part of the 'brotherhood' and chose to dishonor himself with his lies. May he, and all like him, rot in hell - but have to face those they've dishonored before they get there!
