I actually believe Dan was in the Navy. I think he lied about it so much and is very deceptive about his service to the point no one believes him. In fact his claims that people defame his service are provably false because he has never actually disclosed his service. He has posted clips of marines or Navy Seals or little inspirational memes with Dick Marcinko's face above them, none of which actually applies to him.
If he would come clean and disclose his actual service, regardless of what it was, I guarantee you every fucking person here would thank him for his sacrifice. Fuck, I have thanked him for his service. I also offered to give him the number of a guy I know who is ridiculously good at getting veterans to close to 100% on their disability rating. He's done it for about 5 friends of mine, most of whom are combat vets. In fact my lifelong friend who I almost joined the marine corps with back when we were 17 and who did 12 years and is a Desert Storm veteran just left here less than an hour ago and he told me Drew has him up to 80% currently and is still working his case. Like all of us I believe every veteran deserves to be compensated for their service. You signed up to risk your life for your country. The fucking government owes you. Especially if you have health problems and especially if you are a combat vet.
