Dennis Howard Chevalier (Denny H Chevalier) Continues to claim to be a service member, as of April 2016. |
Military blog "This Ain't Hell but You Can See It from Here" called Dennis Howard Chevalier, or Denny H Chevalier, out in four different threads. In 2014, he was featured in an article exposing his claims of being a retired U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. He attempted to backtrack from those claims, accusing somebody else of hacking his accounts and making these claims.
As he attempted to downplay these claims, someone came forward and contradicted his attempts to deny claiming military service. She observed him telling his students that he flew C-130s in Iraq during the Gulf War.
He adamantly denied claiming to be in the military. He insisted that he was in the Texas State Guard, was a retired Civil Air Patrol Lieut. Col., and was a reserve police officer. When someone presented Dennis Howard Chevalier (Denny H Chevalier) with evidence of his military claims on the Internet, Dennis went to the applicable profiles and changed the claims. This destroyed his "a hacker did it" claim.
On April 25, 2016, Dennis Howard Chevalier (Denny H Chevalier) posted on the Facebook page for All My Sons Moving & Storage (Fort Worth, TX). In addition to the negative review he provided, he identified himself as a disabled service member, a service member, a policeman, and a handicapped elder.
On the This Ain't Hell threads dedicated to him, he insisted that he had clarified his claims to differentiate himself from being an actual service member. Yet, here he was on this April 25, 2016 post, identifying himself as an actual service member, not a veteran.
He claimed to be in the military in a way that would allow him to backtrack and explain that he meant something else. He did this with his flight instructor claims with regards to his qualifications. For example, he initially left out the "ground" part of his title, using a term that would easily cause somebody else to think that he was in the air teaching people to fly.
By stating that he was a "service member", without clarifying information, it was clear that he wanted people to think of him a certain way. He wanted them to think that he was in the military. Had someone replied to his review by pointing out the stolen valor articles on him, he could've easily backpedaled and talked about how he meant he was Texas State Guard. However, he didn't identify himself as a veteran of the Texas State Guard. Anybody reading his statement would walk away thinking that he is currently in the US military.
In the same post, he identifies himself as a police officer. It was already established, based on documents that he provided, as well as statements by those who knew him, that he only did a few short stints as a police officer. These happened a long time ago. He was a reserve police officer. Most of this "security" experiences consisted of projects like guarding ATM personnel as they put money in ATM machines.
In the same post, he identifies himself as a "handicapped elder". When most people, in the Western world, think of "elder", they think of a senior citizen. Public records have Dennis Howard Chevalier (Denny H Chevalier) as being born in 1961 or 1962. This would make him either 54 or 55. Not an "elderly" by Western standards. It's possible that he may have a disability. But, if it's one that is not easily detectable, and the movers were not able to identify that, he can't use that against them.
