| Sacco, Steve | . | Sedona | Claims Air Force Pilot. Has STOLEN logs of actual pilot, falsified DD214 and more. Claims shot down, compound fracture in leg, back seater died in his arms, rescued as VC arrived.... | ACTUAL: 3 weeks of Air Force basic training before discharged for being unable to pass physical. Fully capable of new identity and continued lies. Made "quick escape" from Sedona 08/01 when expose pending.

| Sacharnoski, Rodney | 12/2004 | Irving, TX | Claims multiple
bogus martial arts rankings and titles
as well as falsely claiming to
being a "former U.S. Deputy Marshal."
Claims former "Green
Beret" while serving in the U.S.
Army.
|
Sacharnoski's military
records show that he served as a file clerk in the U.S. Marine Corps
from 1957 to 1961 and in the military police in the U.S. Army from
1963 to 1965. (See below). Other
than police school, he received no other specialized training. He did
not attend either SFAS or SFQC. According to the records, USMC
airborne qualifications were approved on March 20, 1957, seven months
before he actually enlisted. He was not promoted to any NCO rank or
higher than Lance Corporal or Private First Class (E3).
According to military records obtained from the National Personnel Records Center under the Freedom of Information Act on Sept. 22, 2003, Rodney Sacharnoski enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps on Nov. 21, 1957, and was discharged at the rank of Lance Corporal (E-3) on Dec. 21, 1961, after serving slightly more than four years. He then joined the U.S. Army on Oct. 29, 1963, and was discharged at the rank of Private First Class (E-3) on Jan. 12, 1965, after serving more than two years. With more than six years combined active duty service during an eight-year period in two separate branches of the armed forces, Rod Sacharnoski was never promoted above one of the lowest enlisted ranks. His USMC record also indicates he received a court martial and was confined in a Navy brig in New Jersey.
Apparently
the U.S. Army approved his airborne status based on training
documentation from his prior service in the U.S. Marines. There are
two interesting aspects. First, there is no record of Rod ever
receiving any training other than recruit and AIT, much less
airborne training, in any of his Marine service records. The second
is that the U.S. Army's document includes a report of his airborne
qualifications signed by a Marine captain and dated a full seven
months before his enlistment in the Marines. If true, he would have
been 16 years old.
Don't forget -- he had been a file
clerk with the Marines.

It seems the guy just never quit bragging or coming up with lies. His claim to fame during basic and infantry training was that his dad was the 5th SFG(A) commander. He was even introduced at our AIT graduation but never stood up to receive his recognition. Go Figure!!
George quit jump school in his 1st or 2nd week and never got to jump

CLAIMING POW "RESCUE" PARTICIPANT
... The men claimed Scroggs rescued Messer from a Cambodian prison camp in 1970 after Messer was captured while on a Marine reconnaissance mission.... Scroggs, a North Carolina resident, claimed to be an Air Force medic who rescued 18 POWs in the 10 months he was in Vietnam....

...Scroggs, who stood by his story after being contacted again, said the reason there is no record of the capture of Messer and his successful rescue is because it was highly classified and there were no records of what transpired between he and Messer. Scroggs had said that he was a medic in Vietnam in 1970 at the time he participated in the rescue of Messer. Military records obtained by The Courier on Friday under a Freedom of Information request dispute that.
Military records dispute hero status
By Lynne Powell | Cherokee County Bureau
lynne.powell
GAFFNEY -- A Gaffney man who told
reporters he was a Marine heroically rescued from a Cambodian POW camp
in 1970 in fact served only 10 months in the Navy and was
court-martialed, according to military records obtained by the
Herald-Journal.
The copies of military records for 57-year-old Warren
Brent Messer show that he enlisted in the Navy in October 1967 and
received a special court martial for an unauthorized absence in August
1968. He was discharged ?under honorable conditions? -- which is
different from an honorable discharge -- into the Naval Reserve later
that month.
Messer said in an interview with the Daily Courier of
Forest City, N.C., and two television stations that he was prisoner of
war in Cambodia, barely hanging on to life at 80 pounds with broken
feet and fingers before Ronnie Scroggs rescued him.
Scroggs, a North Carolina resident, claimed to be an Air
Force medic who rescued 18 POWs in the 10 months he was in Vietnam....

Brother of Cairo native rescues many victims of Hurricane Katrina
By Amy Compney/City Editor
Tom "Gator" Seefeldt, Davis' brother, lives in Biloxi, Mississippi. He is a 25 year veteran of the Navy, where he served as a SEAL, he is a veteran of Vietnam, has served in Somalia and Africa and has even spent time hunting alligators (hence the nickname) for the government. And although he's seen active combat and the terrible side of the human condition through his many years of work as a SEAL, when he got a call out to his sister two days ago, he said the devastation to his area was the worst he has ever seen.
"My brother is in Biloxi, right where it hit the hardest. My brother has been in service since straight out of high school; He's a Navy Seal and he's trained for survival. I know he's going to bring them all home, I know he is," she said.....

I initially thought that he just had really bad fashion judgment or was trying to make some kind of political statement, but then he started talking loudly to anyone around him who would listen about how he had just gotten back from "the shit" in Iraq. Before we had even pushed back from the gate everyone within about 3 or 4 rows, as well as the flight attendants, were fairly familiar with this guy's service record, which apparently included quite a few highly classified "black ops" in which he took part as an airborne qualified special forces soldier, sniper and all-around badass. He managed to finagle quite a few beers out of the flight attendants, and the stories got better as the flight progressed.
- All stories vague, no verifiable locations, lots of killing, mostly by him After we land, he is of course still shitfaced, - but he says he's in Delta and then adds "Special ops tears you up, man, hell this ain't even my real fuckin' name." At which point he proceeds to the baggage claim, meets his party and heads out.
Claims:
- NOT a vet
- USAF brat
- Bland, VA -- he publicly announced on a P.A. to be former NAvy and yet wears a sah with Marine NCO stripes.
Claims to have a 501 3c organization http://www.shadowwolf.org/memorialtable.html. Has set up with veterans of Rolling Thunder, uses the Maupin name, "accepts" donations for the Memorial Table service.
A few years back he did a 'Fund Raiser' for a Marine KIA in Iraq who left a baby at home. Shadow Wolf started a fundraiser for this Marine's orphaned baby by "selling" copies of his unit patch. Found out through the Marine's widow that she nor her baby EVER received a penny from Shadow Wolf and his Memorial.

"Hello David...My name is Dusty..."
These
words have touched the hearts of many veterans over the years. In
particular, they have brought consolation and peace to many women veterans,
especially all the "Dustys" who took care of the countless "Davids"
during the Vietnam conflict. The poem was so moving, in fact, that it was
read by then Vice-President Al Gore at the dedication of the Vietnam Women s
Memorial on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., November 11, 1993.
Recently, I learned the painful truth that the author who has called herself
Dana Shuster is neither a nurse, nor a Vietnam Veteran, as she has publicly
claimed for so many years. I share in the sense of betrayal and hurt of the
many women veterans who have called her sister.
That said, on behalf of the Vietnam Women's Memorial Foundation Board, I
encourage a compassionate response. I hope for the author's own personal
healing, as perhaps deep down, she had somehow hoped for ours. Read
Laura Palmer's letter.
The Foundation has no further information and will not respond to queries or
comments.

To:
Diane Evans, President of the Vietnam Women's Memorial Foundation:
Several months ago I was asked a question I couldn't answer. Did I know for
a fact that Dana Shuster, the nurse portrayed in my book, Shrapnel in the
Heart, as "Dusty," had ever, in fact, served in
Vietnam?
The question was a shocking one to me. "Dusty" is a woman I'd
known for twenty years and considered as a friend. I never doubted that she
was a nurse in Vietnam. But could I prove it? I could not.
The seriousness of the question deserved an answer. I wrote to Dana Shuster,
the woman known as "Dusty," and asked her if she could corroborate
her service for me in specific ways. She could not. I learned that she
was never in the military and never a nurse.
She was subsequently hospitalized for psychiatric care and continues to
undergo therapeutic treatment and support.
It is with profound sadness that I convey this information but it is
important that the truth be known.

Another Firefighter Accused Of Faking Military Leave
Slawinski Allegedly Met Masa At Westmont Fire Department
Firefighter Steve Slawinski, 35, is charged with forgery and theft, the Lemont Fire Protection District said in a news release Friday. The charges stem from allegations that Slawinski accepted compensation while he was on a "purported military leave."
NBC5's Amy Jacobson reported that Slawinski's colleagues kept him in their thoughts and prayers, believing that he was working with the Navy on an intelligence mission.
"We're devastated," Lemont Fire Chief Carl Churulo. "The whole fire district is devastated, the men and women of this district, our board and myself as chief."
Officials are trying to determine the extent of their losses.
"We will make every effort to see that the Fire District is made whole for any cost attributable to the alleged misrepresentation," the fire protection district's statement said.
Slawinski has been placed on inactive status pending an investigation. Slawinski was expected in bond court on Saturday.
Jacobson reported that authorities said Slawinski filled out service papers and submitted fraudulent government forms. Slawinski's salary and benefits cost Lemont approximately $10,000.
There was no phone listing available for a Steve Slawinski in Lemont, and a telephone number in nearby Romeoville was unlisted.
Jacobson reported that Slawinski has been a Lemont firefighter and a part-time Lemont police officer for four years, and he was given a commendation for saving a man's life.
"I'm surprised, because he seemed like a very straight-up guy," said one man.
Earlier this week, a firefighter from nearby Orland Park was charged with collecting more than $190,000 in salary and benefits from that community's fire department during leaves of absence he falsely claimed were for military duty.
Lawrence Masa was charged with felony theft and official misconduct. He's accused of falsifying documents showing that he was being deployed for active service in the U.S. Army in order to take five leaves of absence.
Slawinski was allegedly working for private firms in the Middle East with Masa, Jacoboson reported. The two allegedly met while working at the Westmont Fire Department.
"There were just a lot of red flags that went up over the last week or so since he's been home," Churulo said. "We met with the Orland police yesterday, and this is what has come out of it."
One firefighter told Jacobson that Slawinski was excited about his deployment with the Navy last April. Slawinski's colleagues said they were so concerned that they put up a military flag in front of the Lemont Fire Department in his honor, but that has since been taken down.
