Walter von Mitty – The Real Arno Giesen Story<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stolen valor tale of an American who pretended to be a World War 2 German war hero. He was immortalized in a 1986 military professional journal article about a desperate German defensive battle against an overwhelming Russian force, in Vienna in April 1945.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Last Actions in Vienna at the Floridsdorf Bridge \u2013 April 1945<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Article written in 1986 that countered the above stolen valor tale. It was written by a German officer who commanded the real actions there, which do not resemble the stolen valor tale. It never gained any traction and remained unpublished in Germany and the United States.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Operation Temple – Lebanon 1984<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rival forces in your government have invaded your homeland, forcing you, your family, and your countrymen to flee.  At this very moment, powerful enemy forces are massing at an impenetrable strongpoint to launch the final attack in their campaign. The only course of action available to you is obvious. You attack!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Fratricide at Umm Hajul<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A friendly fire coverup during the first gulf war, in which the US government and military leadership betrayed two young soldiers. One died. The other was scapegoated. This was done so the son of a powerful family could escape accountability.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
