William Derek Church is not an Army Ranger or Combat Veteran

William Derek Church, of Lenoir, North Carolina, is parading himself as a Veteran Army Ranger with Combat Deployments to Iraq. He showed himself in photos wearing SSG rank, service stripes indicating a full career, and medals he didn't earn. His infantry blue chord is on the wrong side, his beret is improperly worn, and he looks like a sack of potatoes trying to wear a uniform.

There are other uniform discrepancies as well, like trousers badly in need of tailoring, and badges worn in the wrong places.

He claimed getting shot in the sternum five times, and is using that as a reason for his alleged disability.

What's the truth about this clown?

He served in the Army National Guard from February 22, 1994 to September 13, 1995. William Derek Church went on active duty from August 8, 1995 to September 13, 1995. He was discharged as a Private First Class. His only award was the National Defense Service Medal, for being on active duty during the Persian Gulf War.

He reported to Basic Combat Training on June 21, 1994, and graduated on August 12, 1994. He reported to his unit to do one weekend a month drills until it was time for him to do AIT. He reported to Advanced Individual Training on August 7, 1995 but was discharged on September 13, 1995.

He was discharged from the military while attempting to complete Advanced Individual Training.

Thanks to "This Aint Hell" and others for giving this embellisher/phony his "spotlight."
