American Thinker Blog: Phony Marine at Phony Vietnam Blumenthal's Presser
"Clarice Feldman
Doug Ross spots a ringer.
One of the merry band of brother 'Marines' at the presser of Connecticut Democrat Senatorial candidate Blumenthal evidently is a phony soldier.
This is William Joseph Trumpower (AKA Eliot Storm), a man listed on POW Network's Phony Vets Database.
Trumpower, like Blumenthal, is a Connecticut resident and has made quite a name for himself hawking books on the Vietnam experience.
The 'POW Networks Phony' database lists Trumpower's bogus credentials as follows:
CLAIMING BRONZE STAR w/VALOR device... Claims 2nd Lt, Claims... Wears 3 Purple Hearts, 2 Bronze Starsw/V. The jacket in EARLIER pictures boasted 8 ribbons. This NEW pic has more and includes V device on Bronze Star and 2nd Lt bars....
It's entirely fitting if the staged Blumenthal apology was, as our anonymous contributor asserts, accompanied by another puffed-up bloviator."
