We've identified all men in the picture. At this point in time. I had no idea this problem was so widespread. You can see Richard Calvert's claims. My Recon bud says based on what Calvert said that it seems obvious that he has been challenged before and has learned that if he sticks to his guns people give up.

This guy wanted to be a Green Beret so bad he faked it to the grave. We will neverout someone unless we are 100% certain via FOIA and Bragg. Although we knew beyond doubt we were on the right guy, it's always nice to get a confirmation. If you look thru the pics I attached, Ron's ribbon rack is either deliberately hidden in all the pics I found of him, or it's entirely coincidental that they're always behind someone else in the pic.

In Pic #85, you'll see an email from someone stating Ron Fernandez the fake Green Beret had asked him to create a fake CAC (Common Access Card) so "he could test the guys at the gate". This is almost unbelievable. I feel sorry for his family. Report a suspected Special Forces (Green Beret) Fraud and what we need. I'm a YG95 guy, I assumed Ron was a few yrs senior to me (maybe YG92-93?). For real Green Berets, there was one dead giveaway that Brooklyn Army vet Papotia Reginald "Reggie" Wright was an imposter.

Another veteran, a friend of mine, VFW lodge commander, informed me that he was scheduled to do some speaking events as part of the local American Legion Speakers Bureau. Our partners at Guardians of the Green Beret share their work with us on this fellow, Bradford Hynde, who wanted to be a member of the VFW so badly, he pretended to be a combat veteran special forces soldier. Ran used these false claims to attain money via fundraisers and conning friends and associates. Well done. It's really pathetic that people try to get away with this type of stuff.

He and Mike Mika (President of SFA Ch 34) threatened to sue the SFA National if they didn't rescind the letter they sent us, give Rudi a formal apology, and re-instate him as a member in good standing.

There'snot really a need to wait on records as we see no additional training whatsoever after AIT in our backchannel search of his records. Ron told me he was thinking of harming himself and I told him to seek help, but that I wouldn't pursue anything else. This is almost unbelievable. Offensive is not the word. Vietnam. Both are false claims. Anthony Travis Nielsen was still claiming we had the wrong last name but also wonder why would have his address? A veteran friend posted his video on his 501 Facebook and honored him at a veteran event.
