Paging Becks

Have been looking at a website which dedicates itself to revealing Navy Seal fakes..... this is some of the info taken from there


Suspicious girlfriends, employers, ex-wives and real SEALs in Hampton Roads have reported 47 men to CyberSEALs, the group that maintains the Internet site. None of the names shows up in the Navy's official database of every man who ever completed training in the elite commando unit.

The database is maintained by the Colorado-based Naval Special Warfare Archives, a group of former SEALs who expose men who falsely claim to be current or former members of the commando unit. The Navy gathers the information and provides it to the Warfare Archives. The database contains the names of the more than 9,700 men who have served as SEALs and is updated with each graduating Basic Underwater Demolition/SEALs class.

In addition to Nolan, would-be SEALs with local ties include a schoolteacher, a former Secret Service agent, a car dealer, a merchant seaman, an NROTC officer candidate, a real estate agent, a limousine driver, active-duty military members, men who have never served in any branch of the armed forces, and barroom and chat-room poseurs.

The 47 range in age from 22 to 62. Some hope to impress women with tales of derring-do, others to boost their self-image or even use the SEAL cachet to get a job or a promotion, according to those who would like to see them ``outed.''

Nearly 700 names have been posted on the ``Wall of Shame'' by CyberSEALs, whose members include ex-SEALs and a former Navy wife
As word of the Web site and its mission spreads, the list grows.

"Psychologists who have studied the phenomenon describe a condition called pseudologia fantastica: the blurring of fact and fantasy so thoroughly that the imposter almost convinces himself that he is a war hero"

You don't get a funeral with full military honours if you die from an illness.

What if it was an illness caught while on active duty, such as infiltrating a terrorist biological warfare lab developing nasty things that will turn your flesh to mush!

However I have a few pm's from 'becks' that makes DD either very real or very insane.

Well, from what I can remember someone was nabbed by the rozzers for knocking him off, allegedly.
There are a few members of the police force on here, can they not colate any info. I know its a long shot but there must be a date of the accident and rough location, and we know of one vehicle involved.

2/9/08 is the date of the off, according to our friend Geoffrey.
Interestingly, we haven't had any activity from him either since about three weeks before dave was 'KIA', and that was in the wheres dangerous dave thread that he resurrected after a couple of weeks of non activity.

You've got a hell of an imagination there Madness!

Are you DD?

Well he's gone, we think, either way!

If he was a fraud he has certainly ****ed off a load of people, but talking about collecting collision data etc to check up on him seems like a massive waste of time to me. I know most of you seem to want closure, but why waste more of your lives on the subject?!?!

The shear number of posts that was managed in a shortish space of time, for me is enough evidence that he was a fraud. Don't see how anyone in the special forces, be it operational or recovering, could manage to do that!

Yeah but it beats sudoko to keep the old brain cells active, eh?

Was that a joke?

If he was a fraud then the person you knew as DD is indeed dead. Just not KIA.

The same way as a soap charater dies and the actor turns up in "Holby City" dave (Becky/Geoffry) will no doubt be doing the same somewhere else.

I personaly hope he was a fraud (the evidence I've read on here certainly makes it look like he had some 'issues') as I wouldn't like to consider the alternative & the possibility of his loved ones reading the previous 400 odd posts.
