Then there's THIS guy  ;D
We don't know how, but we missed a major scandal brewing in the Navy for decades. It's important, so even if we're a little late to the story we still wanted to point it out: Cap'n Crunch is an impostor.

The Cap'n was unmasked June 14 by a food blogger, who noticed the uniform he wears on cereal boxes had the stripes of a commander, not a captain. That is: A captain has four stripes on his sleeve, while a commander has three.

As the story spread, the Navy confirmed what you might be fearing: Cap'n Crunch is a fraud, tricking innocent children since his introduction in 1963.

The Navy (paywall):

    " 'You are correct that Cap'n Crunch appears to be wearing the rank of a U.S. Navy commander,' Lt. Cmdr. Sarah Flaherty, a U.S. Navy spokeswoman, tells Foreign Policy. 'Oddly, our personnel records do not show a "Cap'n Crunch" who currently serves or has served in the Navy.' "

What's more: We put our investigative reporter hat on and went digging. We pulled up and they showed that on some he sported one stripe, on others two.

Yea, but since he is in command of his own sailing vessel, doesn't that make him a captain, even though he's only a commander?

But he's a quick healer. Only took 6 days to recover from the ricochet that caught him in the shoulder.

We need more guys like this. >:D

Not just ANY fire team - Fire Team Bravo!

Sounds like Team America World Police cousins......
 
Wow a whole frickin 2 dudes, that should sort things out there. ::)

C'mon post where that came from so we can all go there and dogpile on this wanker. ( it's Monday and I'm in a bad mood)
 
I thought I'd share this stupid a$$ story that a guy who I grew up with told EVERYONE when he did basic a few years ago- this is 100% true, I couldn't make this crap up lol.

So He went off to basic when he was 18-19 as a reservist in the infantry. He came back and when anyone would complain about the little annoying things in life like relationships or money or whatever he would BLOW UP. Exclaiming that your problems paled in comparison to what happened to him in basic.

So apparently according to him whilst he was on basic he had a friend who was so badly bullied by his superiors that his friend commited suicide. He then proceeded to try and report these superiors for what they did (seems highly unlikely but still in the realm of possibility...just wait). At this point these superiors apperently devised a scheme to kill him, he however thwarted this attempt and ended up killing one of his superiors in self defence. Now Apperently the WHOLE thing is a national cover up and you can't tell anyone! (Except for the dozen people he told).

The only reason he hasn't been booted from his local reserves for being a crazy jack a$$ in my opinion is because his father is a captain.

This was like 4-5 years ago and he's currently a MCpl...

Sounds like a very serious problem.  Neither of which are likely to be sorted out any time soon, no doubt.  (Both father and son.)
 
Could accidentally/on purpose let him know that some people from "a discreet unit near Ottawa" were asking about his routines, places of employment, vehicle type/tag number, etc...then sit back with beer and nachos to see what occurs next.
