Meet Reed Pacheco.
Reed used to be the CEO of Warrior Pointe — an organization that claims to help veterans in some way or another — and a former member of the United States military himself. He was, according to fact, a PFC in the Army’s National Guard at one point, before he was discharged after a few years for “serious offenses”. He went to Korea for a short stint, but that was about it.
Earlier this year, however, if you listened to him and his fiction you would have gleaned an entirely different story/picture. A picture that was distorted in unforgivable ways.
Pacheco claimed (as seen in the video below) that he was a crew chief (staff sergeant) in the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (SOAR) during Operation Gothic Serpent back in October of 1993 in Mogadishu, Somalia. If this particular event rings a bell, that’s not surprising — it was immortalized in the famous Hollywood movie Black Hawk Down.
Hear and see it for yourself. It’s nuts.
