I Am Just Saying

Ladies,

Just got a message from a young lady who is communicating with someone claiming to be a Green Beret. Here are some things that every operator should be able to answer in seconds..

1. MOS..every Military member has an MOS (for Army members in the Special Forces, it starts with 18 and then has a corresponding letter ie 18D)

2. When they graduated SFQC (class number, month and year)

3. Ask them if they are familiar with the terms "Pineland" and "Robin Sage" and what they mean.

4. Finally, what team or they have served or a serving with and where they are stationed.

If he can't or won't answer any of the above questions or tells you it's "classified " he's probably full of shit..

I find it hilarious that after the movie navy seals came out how many claimed to be one. It was like everyone in the navy was until the stolen valor law.

@MasterLee Yeah, funny how I never met a regular black shoe Corpsman or Aviation Mechanic in the bars..lol.

MasterLee · 56-60, M

Very likely. Most never discuss it.

Also ... I believe all service members have an ID card, dog tags, and if they are apt to travel much, an official passport.

All easily scanned.

@Heartlander I don't think I'd be scanning my CAC card in this day and age, but pics might work.

@Ironhand

:) thanks .... I spent most of my life in a much more trusting world. But I'm afraid to give away even my social security number in today's world.

That's only for army maybe marines also, Air Force and Navy have different terms

MasterLee · 56-60, M

@snowman65 air force is afsc.

Ironhand · 51-55, M

@snowman65 Yup. I made it Army specific because that's what I am familiar with and that's what he was claiming. I'll let Don Shipley deal with the Fake SEALS...lol

Why would I ask those questions unless he was my dead husband and I needed it for his pension.

Ironhand · 51-55, M

@Keepitsimple Apparently he's trying to liberate the female from her oppressive undergarments and did not know what an MOS was. She asked and he responded Ft. Riley..lol

Keepitsimple · 56-60, F

Wow...good for her, she’s no cheap bimbo 😂@Ironhand

MasterLee · 56-60, M

@Ironhand Haha

Tracos · 56-60, M

I wouldn't know what the correct answers are.....

Ironhand · 51-55, M

@Tracos Good. That's the idea.

I would be full of shit then because that was all lost on me 😂

Ironhand · 51-55, M

@SW-User Lol. But you're not claiming to be something you're not.

SW-User

@Ironhand Yeah, I find that kind of thing disgusting. To claim to have done military service when you haven't is the biggest bitch move ever.
