Wondering what people know on sgm Perry McNeil. I personally served with him years ago. They claimed he wore a ranger tab and went through ranger school as well as pathfinder. I never once saw him for years wear either one of them.. figured that some of you guys might have recently served with him. People have been bashing him and honestly it's disgusting in my opinion.

He may have been an outstanding NCO when you served with him, hell he may still be an outstanding NCO. The fact of the matter is he was tried under a Summary Court Martial and found guilty of falsifying official documents, wearing unauthorized awards, and lying. He wasn't given a "bad rap", he was investigated and found guilty.

I personally do not know him but, he brought all the bashing on himself. He did not live up to the Army Values and his character is in serious question. How many NCOs did not get selected for promotion because his record looked better than theirs so, he was selected over them? He went against everything that NCOs are supposed to be, blatantly ignoring the NCO Creed and Army Values.

Personally, I think he got off light on the punishment. He doesn't deserve to continue being a NCO.

I've talked to a few of his soldier from ada at ft hood... they all claimed he never once was seen wearing it. That's what get me. Someone stated he has pissed off the battalion cdr and that's why it happened. Proof of it idk. Fact remains, he was a great NCO but was it truth or made up to kick someone else out? Not saying people did anything illegal, but after seeming the things ADA has done, makes me truly wonder what actually happened.

I think CSM (Join to see) got all the important points except one.

It's what's inside the uniform that counts, not what's on it.

A badge never packed a parachute, or did JMPI, or fixed a rerouted static line, or taught marksmanship, or counseled someone to become a better soldier, or stood on the wall between our country and the barbarians.

Yet "a badge" signifies the wearer did in fact do something that was pretty special, that is why "the badge" was made.
