Jesse Perez – U.S. Army Ranger (Ret), Six Combat Deployments, Multiple PHs, POW, Blog of Shame
701/13/2019 by militaryphonies
BACKGROUND
Jesus L. Perez, aka Jesse Perez, comes to us from Pittsburg, CA which is near San Francisco. He is 37 y/o as of January 2019.
Jesse tweets under the name Jesse@Gypsy_DynasFTW and ProudAnchorBaby…
… or at least he did until those accounts were shut down.
In any case, Perez would jump into political discussions and often mention his military experience, presumably to bolster his opinion on the issue based on direct experience. Here he claims that he is a “retired Army Ranger who served for over 10 years with 6 combats deployments” and was a POW…
On another post, Perez claims he has multiple Purple Hearts…
In the following post, he claims to have been a Prisoner of War (POW) for 16 days…
. . . . .
Jesus L. Perez’s military records were requested through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.
. . . . .
FOIA RESULTS
DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE – MANPOWER DATA CENTER (DoDMDC)
NATIONAL PERSONNEL RECORDS CENTER – NPRC
In addition, multiple resources were checked to confirm Perez’s claim of being a Prisoner of War (POW). His name was not listed in the mulitple resources that we checked.
. . . . .
DISCUSSION and SUMMARY
U.S. ARMY RANGER, 10 YEARS SERVICE, PURPLE HEARTS
Since a military record could not be located for Perez, the claims could not be confirmed and cast doubt upon them. If he has proof to the contrary, he may want to get with NPRC and get his records straightened out.
PURPLE HEART
This may be a case of stolen valor since Perez is claiming he has Purple Hearts – plural. This would be in violation of the Stolen Valor Act.
The NPRC does not have record of Jesus L. Perez’s military service. If these claims are being leveraged for something of value, Perez may be in violation of the Stolen Valor Act.

The only POW I know of from the GWOT is Bergdahl. No other POWs have been taken as far as I know.
If anyone else has any other information, please post it.
8 US POW’s taken in 2003, 6 from the 507th Maintenance Company, and 2 CWO’s from the 1-227 Helicopter Assault Battalion also in 2003. Plus 11 additional US troops captured then executed.

Just another lying phony pony, except this pony never got out of the gate! Shame on you! I hope a real Ranger finds you and gives you the beat down you deserve! You are just an attention seeking whore! Go eat a bag of dicks!
The only thing Ranger about this guy may be a Ford pick up truck,,,,,
His Anchor Baby Twitter account is still up and he is admitting he liked on it. I just checked it.
I wish I had Jesse’s SRB.
