    If a SIGACT or AAR can not be produced/reviewed by a cleared individual that can cooberate his story and his fellow soldiers and command can not reinforce his claims it has to be fake.

    Anyone know what base he may have been stationed at and a rough date the incident occured?
    Fuck you. We're going to Costco.

      On Monday’s show, Poe told judges Howie Mandel, Howard Stern and Sharon Osbourne that he spent 14 years in the military and suffered a broken back and brain injury when he was hit by a grenade in Afghanistan in 2009. “I had volunteered for a team to go out and clear buildings and help out with the wounded,” Poe said during a taped interview on the show. “There was a guy who comes up with a rocket-propelled grenade. I saw it coming down, and by the time I turned and went to jump on top of my guys, I yelled ‘grenade’ and the blast had hit me.”

      Poe told the judges that he was from San Antonio, Texas. The TV show listed his age as 35.

      According to military records, Poe served with the Minnesota Army National Guard from December 2002 through May 2011, working as a supply specialist. Records show he was deployed in Kosovo from Oct. 10, 2007 to July 15, 2008, and then served in Afghanistan for about a month in 2009. “Sgt. Poe’s official military records do not indicate that he was injured by a grenade in combat while serving in Afghanistan in 2009, as he reports,” Lt. Col. Kevin Olson, a spokesman for the Minnesota National Guard, said in a statement. “We looked very closely at his record,” Olson said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press. “We did not find something to substantiate what he said.”

      Olson’s statement Wednesday also said the Minnesota National Guard had no record of Poe being shot while in Iraq, as a Dallas TV station reported last month in a story that featured Poe. Efforts to arrange an interview with Poe on Wednesday were not successful.







      Now Poe admits that the grenade attack, which he claimed caused his injuries, "may not have happened exactly how I explained it because I don't remember a whole bunch." His words came in defense to AGTNews.com, who learned that Poe's squad leader in Afghanistan posted on his Facebook page that Poe's story is "all a giant lie."

        If there was, I wouldn't pick it because it would probably just keep leaving the game and then coming back like nothing happened.
