Because we ain’t ogres…

A word of advice,

Don’t stand in the blood of our wounded and fallen by wearing bogus military uniforms adorned with unearned badges, rank insignia and medals.

Rest assured, SVC with assistance of our supporters will eventually bring an end to your foolish games, no matter where you may be.

Several months ago, we were asked to have a look at an individual who was a regular participant in military / veteran themed events. Looking at the dude’s uniform, it appears it put together by blind chimpanzee rummaging about the disposal bins on the clothing stores’ loading dock.

Lapel pins for collar dogs, “gold lace” Corporal’s stripes, 1 CMBG patch, a Warrior Badge along with an obviously bogus Special Service Medal (NATO) and grey socks with civvy pattern shoes! On occasion, he’s worn a tri-service hat badge on his beret and a green ISAF patch on his tunic sleeve…

No reasonable person would tolerate a random dude dressing up as a police officer, firefighter, paramedic or dog catcher and taking on a significant role in events of remembrance. So, why is this sack of shit allowed to stand in the blood of the wounded and fallen while wearing a fantasy clown suit?

So, the question becomes – why did the “adults“ in his community allow him to play a game of dress up in a military themed costume? Was it to prevent the bogus “Afghanistan veteran” with issues from burning down the village? Was it because the event organizers lacked the intestinal fortitude to call him out?

Fortunately, a few good people contacted us and asked that we take a look…

Due to circumstances, relayed to us from a representative on the ground, we have made the decision not to identify the individual nor the location where this shitbaggery took place.

However, we have assurances that he won‘t be portraying himself as a veteran in the future.

Why did SVC take this approach?

Because we ain’t ogres..

Next!

Curtis Jack ROUSH – SVC?, “they’re probably right…”

We were asked to have a look at Mr. Roush’s military service claims after a photograph of him was published in a local newspaper in November 2016.

So, after some solid research, we have confirmed that Roush was never Awarded the Navy Cross as he claimed when he joined the RCL nor, is he the recipient of the Navy and Marine Corps Medal and the Purple Heart.

It’s somewhat difficult to be wounded in action and rescue shipmates after a Viet-Cong combat swimmer attack on a Riverine Navy support ship when you are a reservist in the US and 9000 miles from the incident!

“They’re probably right,” Roush said when asked about allegations he wore the Navy’s Purple Heart and U.S. Navy and Marine Corps Medals, despite not earning them.


“It’s something I deeply regret,” he said. “There are a lot of people there (at the Legion) that I respect.”

Lest We Forget Indeed!

Daniel Howard WHITESELL is he a Special Forces CWO / RSM or a navy reserve bin rat?

We were asked to review the claims made by “Chief Warrant Officer” Daniel Harold WHITESELL (DOB 2X/03/195x) of Windsor, Ontario.

Our review identified many inconsistencies in his presentation made to 600 school children at a Remembrance Day event @ Ecole Secondaire E. J. Lajeunesse in Windsor, On.

He claimed to be a veteran with 38 years of service. He spoke to the students saying that he was former Joint Task Force 2 special forces operator and had served in Afghanistan for eight years, Rwanda, Bosnia, as well as served a short 2-year stint in the navy.

He brought with him a framed photo of himself in uniform, surrounded by dozens of medals. He also presented some form of coin to show the entire school.

During his presentation, he spoke about how he had done awful things that he was not proud of. 

At first he said that as special ops he could not speak about the things he had done, however later during the Q and A period one of the students asked him “what the hardest job he had done was?”

At this point he told us about how he was going after high ranking Taliban in small villages in Afghanistan. He said that his team would enter the villages in the middle of the night, and that if a teenager or child, the same age as the students he was speaking to had seen him, that he had to silence them by any means necessary to avoid giving up their position, Alluding to the fact that he had killed innocent children during his service.

This horrified many of the students…

His ridiculous claims combined with an image of him wearing a green beret and PPCLI “other ranks” hat-badge, gave us cause to question his entire military narrative.

Our team conducted a thorough review of all available records, this included websites, newspaper articles, photographic images, regimental tour books, and extracts from military documents in Canada in order to determine the legitimacy of his claims.

SV-C then reached out to the regimental and corps associations, their museums and other organizations in which WHITESELL has claimed to have served. The publicly accessible records, that we have had the opportunity to review, do not support his claims.

The absence of verifiable records alone does not conclusively prove that an individual is a fake or embellisher, it just indicates that there are no records…

Claiming to be a CWO/RSM with decades long service in the PPCLI!

Dude, do you know how few men have been given the  honour and privilege to join that group?

Every Patricia Regimental Sergeant Major is known and you ain’t one of them! 

What we do know.

Mr WHITESELL wasn’t an “operator” of any description, he was an Ordinary Seaman in the Naval Reserve and employed as a Supply Technician in HMCS Hunter in Windsor, Ontario. We have been told anecdotally that he sailed in a Porte Class training vessel on a Great Lakes deployment in the 1980s and, that he may have spent a short period in the Army Reserve.

Ordinary Seaman WHITESELL’s navy ride / sleek greyhound of death.

By all accounts, he had a some what lack-lustre career trajectory, and left the unit in the early 90s.

“CWO” Dan WHITESELL also known as
Call sign “Chicken Legs”

Well Mr Daniel Howard Whitesell, the puck is in your end of the rink. 

It’s now time for you to surrender the PPCLI hat badge that you have absolutely no entitlement to; followed by a public apology for your shitbaggery. 

Lest We Forget.

 

Peter PASANEN – Not a wounded Vietnam hero, just a Deserter…

Mister Peter (Pekka Tapio) PASANEN of Burnaby, BC

Pasanen was a member of both the 1st and 2nd Bns of the Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry and a Cold War veteran who earned the Special Service Medal (NATO) for service in Europe. He was also a member of the Seaforth Highlanders, a Vancouver based reserve infantry unit.

As a Private in the PPCLI

Pasanen 1966, Canadian Forces (Europe)

Then one day, he makes the decision to embellish his career narrative & claim Vietnam service with the US Army. Although, he’s technically a US Army “Veteran” he’s a deserter and has no lawful entitlement to the Bronze Star, the Purple Heart & the Combat Infantry Badge…

We contacted Mr Pasanen, during the Summer of 2017, in order to provide him with an opportunity to sort to the situation reading his Vietnam claims. He told us via email that he had been drafted by the United States, he went AWOL from Fort Ord,CA, received a Less than Honourable Discharge and wore the US medals, less the National Defense Service Medal, and basic parachutist wings without lawful authority.

Given his claim of being drafted by the US, SVC then asked our US counterparts at This Ain’t Hell (www.thisainthell.us) for their expert assistance in securing Pasanen’s US Army records under a Freedom of Information Access request.

The records tell that Pasanen was less than truthful with us.

Mr Pasanen had legitimate military service in the Canadian Army during the Cold War, that’s something in which he should have taken great pride.

Pasanen was “legitimately” awarded the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal however, his name was misspelled as PARSANEN on the GG’s web site…

 

Now, it’s time for him to heed the advice of General Douglas McArthur and just fade away…
