$10,000 for proof that James Fetzer served in the USMC

James Fetzer, famous conspiracy researcher, has claimed -- repeatedly -- to have served in the United States Marine Corps sometime between 1962 and 1966. But consider the following:

  • There is no DD-214 filed, in any US jurisdiction, for James Henry Fetzer. All discharges from the US military receive one of these.
  • Despite extensive research, no individuals have been located who seem to remember serving with Fetzer.
  • There are no photographs in existence of Fetzer in military dress (Fetzer claims to have included some in his books, but these are not verified).
  • Fetzer's son, Bret, was born in 1965. It is impossible to conceive a child in California while serving in Japan, as Fetzer has claimed to do.

  • Fetzer lists himself as a lieutenant in the above (fake) news story, while simultaneously claiming to have been a captain by 1965. He could not have been both. 
  • The (fake) news story above lists four grandparents, which is remarkable, considering that Fetzer's mother died when he was 11 years old.
  • The godparents mentioned in the above (fake) news story appear to be a fabrication, there being no record of any such people in existence.
  • Fetzer has been overweight for years, and today is clearly obese. It would be extraordinary for a US Marine, known for physical fitness, to permit their physical condition to decline to this extent.
In light of the foregoing, I issue a simple challenge:

To the first person to present irrefutable evidence that Professor James Henry Fetzer served in the US Marines between 1962 and 1966, I will award either $10,000 to that person, or $20,000 toward Fetzer's legal fees, as he defends himself in lawsuit filed by a Sandy Hook parent.

There is only one rule: the evidence must be verifiable and convincing.
