The Press Corpses hate the internet and fact checking.
WaPo - why didn’t you do your checking before you published a single word about this story?
why weren’t all your stories about this incident - from the start - about the Black Hebrews and the political activist, Phillips, not the schoolboys?
MSM HAVE BEEN DEAD FOR YEARS. TIME TO BURY THEM.
So he claims to be a Vet for the benefits and free housing, etc. What a sorry SOB.....lied about being a Vietnam Vet.....he only did this for the benefits.

Yeh, turns out that Phillips was a Vietnam Era vet but never served in-country. He was a refrigeration technician and not a Recon Ranger as he described himself. Marine Corp doesn’t describe their recon guys as Rangers as it’s an army description. He also went AWOL three times and had other disciplinary problems. And, while he did serve his full four year hitch and received an honorable discharge he got out as an E-1 which is the grade one starts their military enlistment as. Actually, it’s quite a feat to remain in the military for four years as an E-1 and receive an honorable discharge. Most would have been given a general discharge and sent in their way long before four years was served. I can only surmise that there was a shortage of refrigeration techs at the time and Phillips must have been responsible for the Officers Club refrigerators or something. Sarc/
