Uniform discrepancies

Uniform discrepancies 1.) Silver Star – No record of a “GySgt or SSgt, or Sgt, or Cpl, or LCpl” Whalen receiving a Silver Star. 2.) Navy Marine Corps Medal – Out of all the Marines I have ever served with I have NEVER seen this awarded. (including Marines who have received Silver Stars and Navy Crosses) 3.) Combat Action Ribbon (with 3 stars) – Given out for separate conflicts, i.e. (1) for Iraq and (1) for Afghanistan, (1) for Somalia, (1) for Gulf War, (1) for Grenada – I dought this person is near 50 years old. 4.) Selected Marine Corps Reserve Medal – he is not a reservist. 5.) Drill Instructor (with 1 star) not how the ribbon is awarded, not a drill instructor. 6.) Also was a recruiter? 7.) National Defense Medial (with 1 star) 8.) Jump wings and Marine Combat Diver breast insignia – Contacted those school houses, did not attend.

Uniform Discrepancies Out of Height and Weight standards. Belt length at least (3) inches too long. - Pants not fitted properly -Broke d**k shirt that doesn’t fit Looks about 16 years old.
