Kevin Prohaska comes to us from East Amherst, NY with the claims of being a U.S. Navy SEAL and a Captain in the U.S. Navy. The rank of Navy Captain is 0-6 for those non-Navy types. Kevin had made various posts to Facebook pages or other military websites claiming U.S. Navy, 1981 to 2006, 0-6, Retired, Team 3, class 118. In Kevin’s picture, he is sporting a NSW/NSWG 1 Captain baseball cap.
Kevin posted a message to a paralyzed SEAL reaching out talking about the Trident (SEAL Insignia that is earned every day). Stated that he was blown up and survived being “bitten” (we assume shot) three times in the sand box.
Kevin then posts to a kid’s profile stating he is a former Captain in the United States Navy, Special Operations out of Coronado, CA. Having served in many places and had the honor to serve with many men of courage (remember this statement, it gets interesting). Good thing he quotes a warrior’s creed.
He was on other websites stating the same story.
Kevin has since deleted his Facebook account once real SEALs had seen his post on another SEAL’s page. The SEALs decided to contact Kevin by stating there is a class reunion for Class 118, you are going to love this. You cannot make this up.
Kevin states it’s the wrong guy; then later states he was in Class 162, but the SEAL that contacted him was in Class 162. Seriously, this is too funny.
Another SEAL makes contact with Kevin. Finally, Kevin decides that the gig is up…
ACTIONS CONDUCTED BY MILITARY PHONIES
After contacting the UDT/SEAL archives and checking the UDT/SEAL database we found that there is NO record of a ‘Kevin Prohaska.’
Kevin Prohaska’s records were requested through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.
DISCUSSION & SUMMARY
Records show that Kevin NEVER served in the military, was never a US Navy SEAL, was never a Captain in the Navy, was never blown up or “bitten” in the sand box. Kevin did not earn the Trident.
