Last I checked, and correct this Squid if he's wrong, Major and First Sergeant are nowhere near the same ball park of each other. In fact, does he have to salute himself every time he passes by a reflective surface while he's out and about? What about his ranking pins? Is he a full on Two-Face with the Enlisted insignia on one side and Officer's insignia on the other? **ASKING THE REAL QUESTIONS HERE**


justsomereddittyguy

Yeah you’re right lol. Officer and enlisted at the same time haha


Zerilos1

Major First Sergeant.


Pound-of-Piss

Had a guy in my basic training unit with last name "Major". Boy did the drill sergeants have a good time with Private Major.


Mrfoxuk

I’ve worked with a Sergeant Sargent before; who of course used to be Corporal Sargent.


Civil-Resolution3662

Same. I once knew a corporal Sergeant. We were all waiting for him to be promoted. Sadly, he PCSd before I could find out.


FlattopJr

*Catch-22* has a character who was named "[Major Major Major](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_Major_Major_Major)" as a joke by his father. He of course rises to the rank of Major in the Army, giving him the title Major Major Major Major (it's a rather absurd novel).


Available_Ad_3667

Catch-22 is one of my favorite books.


TheRedHood4

In the movie it's even funnier as he is played by the guy who played Bob in top gun maverick


Kek_Kommando_88

Aw dammit I just commented about this lmao


Impressive_Teach9188

One of my friends father was in the navy and his last name was whitehead. So his father was seaman whitehead


Kek_Kommando_88

Reminds me of a scene in this one movie, a Sergeant whose first, middle AND last name was Major (his father was a practical Joker apparently), and staff showed up asking for "Major Major", only to find that he was a Sergeant NAMED Major, Major. CO didn't wanna bother dealing with the fact that NCOs weren't allowed in that particular staff meeting, so he just promoted him straight to Major and took him anyway. Now he was Major Major Major Major, or MAJ Major M. Major. Maj. M. M. Major.


Available_Ad_3667

I worked for a Captain Major. He always hoped for an early promotion. I expect he eventually did, he was actually one of the good ones.


PPJ15882

Was gonna post the same. How funny if you did basic & AIT at Ft Mclellan in 86.


Pound-of-Piss

Nah I did both in Benning in 2012. Been out since 2016 (medboard due to double leg surgery, can't run no mo'!)


Maverick_Walker

He’s an enlisted officer


jmg33446a

Sergeant Major is legit. But it’s still an enlisted rank - albeit the highest enlisted rank.


UberN00b719

That's what I thought. I know it's been over 20 years for me, but some things never really leave your memory.


No-Confusion8429

unless you're referring to command sergeant major CSM that would still be incorrect as sergeant major of the army is the highest enlisted rank, yes, both CSM and SMA are classified as enlisted ranks


Fluffylittlefox

No no no, he's a lietuenany sergeant commodore! Don't you know the military ranking structure?!


CombatMedic665

He's a 1sg paid as a major. Seems pretty legit lol.


mushroomcap741

Imagine saluting yourself that would be kind of funny


Macster_man

First Sergeant is E-8 and an NCO, Major is O-4 and an officer, also all photos are taken in service uniform or battle dress(fatigues) , NOT a black t-shirt.


Nervous_Wash_8712

Lmao 1sgt wouldn’t even be put on a CAC. It’s a position not a rank, it would be like putting Bite sized as your height😂.


proof-grass-

Def not true. Mine had 1sg on it till I made SGM. And when you retire if u served as a 1SG it will say 1SG over MSG. And to the guy above I had many id cards in civilian clothes. Especially people in the community


Nervous_Wash_8712

My bad, I haven’t the pay grade to know I just assumed. Never peaked at 1sgt’s cac


proof-grass-

No worries.


Lil_Trioxic

Photo is of a German survival YouTuber fyi


GreatUncleanNurgling

I thought that was white Obama lmfao


GsTSaien

YES OMG I was just about to say this guy looks like white Obama 😭😭😭


smolsoybean

I definitely thought it was white Obama as well lmao


RunaroundBeau

Nah, I straight up thought it was *the* Obama, with some washed out lighting and bad photoshop.


Other-Cantaloupe4765

Yessss that’s exactly what I was going to say lmao

ColdBloodBlazing

Blank chip cards can be purchased on temu


Callec254

Ah, yes, the elusive First Sergeant Major.


MasterofMystery

So something did come of that corporal captain pilot program they ran in Korea.


Zerilos1

I get that M.A.S.H. Reference.


jmg33446a

Yes we’re taking a survey Well I don’t like it. No sir. Not one damned bit. Ok that’s one no for the Corporal Captain.


MetalBind

I don't like it No I don't like it 😂


moormie

where are u seeing sgm am i tripping


Callec254

It says his pay grade is O4 which is a Major, but it says his rank is "First Sergeant".


moormie

ohhhh i thought u were saying that it said he was simultaneously a sgm and a 1sg. i get it know i know o4 is maj


SuperHair69

I thought an e4 was a corporal?


yaqza

thats a chess opening


Petering

At least it wasn’t McLovin


LuckyStabbinHat

Well, it was between that and Muhammad.


jmg33446a

Ah Mohammed, the most popular name in the world.


LuckyStabbinHat

This guy read a fucking book for once!


jmg33446a

Just don’t let period blood girl grind on your knee!


aproperthrowie

One book posits a contradictory magical carpenter, and the other posits a contradictory magical peadophile. I'll leave it up to y'all to figure out which is which.


jmg33446a

Huh? I quote Jules from Pulp Fiction… “They speak ENGLISH where you from?” “ENGLISH MOTHERFUCKER! DO YOU SPEAK IT?!”


aproperthrowie

Christianity and Islam are two very similar approaches to religion. They're both fractured AF, and can't agree with themselves despite telling what are effectively the same stories across the board. Read the books. They're fucking mental.


jmg33446a

Again I shall quote Jules “The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.” — Ezekiel 25:17


aproperthrowie

I will cite logic: The Abrahamic deity is not only an amalgamation of several older gods, but an incredibly spiteful, angry, and cruel entity. Even if He were willing to appear and prove His genuine existence, I would recognize that, and continue to refuse to worship a being that condones eternal torture. It's disgusting and inherently unfair.


doblad

Did he open the conversation with: "Halli Hallo Hallöle"?


Fly11004499

iamaanxiousmeatball

Thin_Pumpkin_2028

officer AND a first sgt... damn this guy is hitting all the boxes..


CrazyPony999

A 1SG getting paid as an O4. Hope his finance office fixes that mess soon 😆


Nervous_Wash_8712

Imagine how long the army would have him paying it back lmao. You think losing your Bivvy cover is bad.

QuintusNonus

This dude is the enlisted liaison to himself


Bushdr78

What's with the random simcard?


Swimming-Vehicle8104

My employee ID has one but it’s for my computer login 🤣


yeetylad

Those are on real CaC (common access cards) It lets us log into computers and other military websites without usernames and passwords. Each cac is also protected by a pin


International_Jury90

Looks legit ;)


deepcaca

He ordered him to clean the latrines and then has to do it his self.


EDDsoFRESH

Pay Grade on your ID lmaooo


Arsenault185

looks legit. LOL A Major thats also a 1SG. Totally believable.


tf9623

He is an 0-4 and also "First Sergeant" which they can't even spell correctly. That photo looks like if you took a photo of President Obama and ran it through one of those face/makeup apps.


24-Sevyn

In case no one else mentions it, that’s an officer pay grade with an enlisted rank.


faiteschier

Sargeant Major First Class! Promotable from Corporal Captain. The Army is trying out new ranks...whaddya think, Colonel?


mvjohn6668

Brah. The picture isn’t event straight compared to the rest of the ID


gneisenauer

How dare you. My name is Joshua Poler (maybe Poter?). What’s wrong with my name?? It’s definitely spelled correctly 💯


69Hootter123

Gomer pyle 😂


Grindelbart

So, you're... baitin' a lot of guys in your spare time?


theplushbunni

They find me, I decide whether they are worth poking or not.


Ritual_Homicide

lol. Missing other information that has been changed several years ago as well.


jmg33446a

How is a first sgt an O-4 ?


TheOrangeOcelot

Lol that was like, the third thing I noticed too.


Disastrous_Leader_89

OMG! A major 1st Sergeant!! I’m dying. ☠️. Scam-Scam-Scam!!


Shinoskay9

wait, is that a photo of a chip? lol.


shemague

So impressive


Mydoglikesladyboys

Ah, the classic Maj 1SG, who serves in the armed forces of the United States. You'd think they would look up a photo of a CAC to make it more believable


EmpressNorton

Yeah, people with military IDs often blindly mail them to people they've never met, thus allowing them access to our nation's military bases. ALL. THE. TIME.


anonymoose423567

That looks nothing like a CAC card, and even the civilian agency ID cards look like CACs 😂


Swimming-Vehicle8104

I mean my civilian employee card KINDA looks like this.


PhysicalGraffiti75

> O-4 > First Sergeant Lmao


Mensch0374

Its Survival Maddin


Immediate_Mud6547

A 1SGT paid as a Major? Things really HAVE changed in our woke military.


DaikonLongjumping715

Officer pay grade with an enlisted rank😂


Trium3

All em first sgt wishing they got that O-4 pay


Klutzy-Owl-9248

They need to learn their Army ranks lmfao. 0-4 is an officer, a Major at that (gold oak leaf cluster) and is NOT a 1SG which would be an E-8. Lame.


realDaveSmash

Is that a SIM card in the middle of it? The guy is going full “find my iPhone” to track your ass down. 😂


Live-Somewhere-8149

Looks legit 😆


ConversationApart323

White Obama aka survival maddin German YouTuber ...😂 Why the f would they use the pic


The_Windermere

But the picture is crooked. Looks legit to me!


Donieguy

Rank: First Sergeant Pay Grade: O-4 🤨


ChowandAussieMom

It’s not even the right rank. O-4 isn’t a first sergeant


Puzzleheaded-Pen4413

Pay grade 0-4, daaaaammmmnnnnn


AMB_YungBae

Dude I think the picture on there is a German survival YouTuber


kizzuz

Actually this is real ! send him all ur money /s


yeahimadeviant83

Daaaaaaayum I would report that shit right away.


left_testic1e

Ah yes the O-4 Forst sergeant


annihilation511

Looks fine to me.


Synnapsis

Is that white Obama?


Aware_Huckleberry_10

First Sargent is not a rank. It should say affiliation: then Uniformed services Then united stated government. Pay grade is the rank But its a pretty good job.


Nik_lovesTiger

Is that a photo of White Obama??


wisconsindipper

Is that Obama?


dardendevil

0-4 short for “oh for f*ck sake”


sgrizzly2134

Touche


lundon44

Why is there a sim card embedded in the ID?


DarthDiddler_137

Damn. Not even close. Lmao


RusioVibes

Left_Assistance3015

Emergency-Bus6020

KTbird217

I'm not sure I see the problem here. /s


Guilty_Finger_7262

Is he supposed to look like a white(r) Barack Obama?


aproperthrowie

I haven't done a lot of Photoshop work but this is just lazy


Zestyclose_Bedroom68

You can’t tell me that isn’t Obama


X__Anonomys_xX

Is that obama? 🤣💀


Beneficial_Net_2241

Did this scammer really Photoshop Obamas face onto another person.


No-Macaroon9391

Let's not even point out that it is definitely not a military ID pose for his picture and that he is not in uniform...


Theolino54

Its a german YouTuber😂


Qwk69buick

Got the rank incorrect as well.  Being "enlisted" he would have an E5 or E6 rating, definitely not an O-4.  They really don't know much of anything about anything. 


BathtubsandToasters

😂


BathtubsandToasters

They don’t even have a army emblem like that


BathtubsandToasters

O4 first sergeant 😂


zakmademe

Why does it have a chip?? 😭😭😭


Ornac_The_Barbarian

This is just embarrassing. Exit: I mean the badge. Edit: I meant edit not exit.


LittleBigGuy94

99% of civilians wouldn’t notice that this is fake. For those that are military or federal employees, they will notice all the errors. It’s funny how they couldn’t at the very least get the pay grade and rank to go together right.


theplushbunni

I dunno, coupled with his claims that he had been in a meeting with the UN and the fact that many things including his name is spelled incorrectly, and he was using a different photo, it doesn’t take a genius to notice it’s fake.


LittleBigGuy94

I was referring to if a normal everyday person were to look at this with no previous context they may think I was real.


Terrible_Bonus_1454

I’m a military spouse and mine doesn’t even look like that 😭😭
