Steve Edgell comes to us from Clarksburg West Virginia. Where he is telling everyone far and wide that he has been called to his MEPS station in order to retake the Oath of Enlistment because of a “covert operation” that he is being deployed for.
Mr Edgell was texting one of our sources where he was claiming to hold the rank of Staff Sergeant (SSG)(E-6) and could be called up for active duty because he still has 3 years ” Inactive duty ” He then goes on to say that he was deployed to Mogadishu in 1993.
Claiming to have been assigned to the 75th Ranger Battalion and to the 3rd Ranger Battalion.
Mr Edgell spreads the news even more by making a post on his high school classmates FaceBook page.
It appears that his biological brother had seen enough and decided to speak up.
In his defense, Mr Edgell posted a copy of his Kentucky drivers license displaying the word ” Veteran” in the upper right corner of the photo itself. He claims that you can’t get that without showing a dd-214.
Claiming that his MOS is 18B. Which is the MOS for Special Forces Weapons Sergeant
Again, Claiming combat veteran from Mogadishu (1993) and being assigned to the 75th Rangers.
Actions Preformed by Military Phonies;
We first conducted a single record request at the website Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) We used the date of Oct.4, 1993 as the date of Mr Edgell’s active duty service. The results were negative.
Military Phonies then filed for Mr Edgell’s military service record using the privilege of the Freedom of Information Act. (FOIA) The results were the same. No records found.
Summary and conclusion;
Unless Steve Edgell can produce documented proof of his serving in the Army and being part of the Battle of Mogadishu or being a tabbed Tabbed Ranger. Or his claim of being a 18B Special Forces Weapon Sergeant We have no other choice but to declare Steve Edgell from Clarksburg West Virginia a Phony Combat US Army Ranger/ Special Forces Weapons Sergeant.
