Bud Hadley, Green Beret... NOT!!

He used his fake claims to start and expand his business........

Bud Hadley is classic. He pretended to be a Green Beret for a long time. He helped start and expand Warlaord Beard Oil Company using those lies.

He had a number of REAL GREEN BERETS as friends. 

Here's where and how he got caught........

First Link to Bud's video is here

The admins and those that help in Guardians of The Green Beret are all members of a secret forum called SF Brothers. We created a unique challenge coin for members only that would benefit the Green Beret Foundation. 

A vetted member "Thought" Bud Hadley was a member and sent him alink to purchase a coin. Bud put his order in. The thing is, we had a stop gap.....

The GBF would send us the name of each person wanting to purchase the coin. We would then verify that he was a vetted member of SF Brothers before the coin was sent.

We noticed Bud Hadley was NOT a member. We reached out to him and expalined he had to get vetted before we could ship the coin. 

His reply was to "keep money as a donation and he didn't want vetted" ?????

That seemed like a RED FLAG as someone had tried to get him vetted a few months before, thinking him a "brother"

We messaged some of the real GBs on his friends list and nobody knew him. Hmmmmm

We reached out to the 20th in Mobile Ala., the unit Bud "The POSer" Hadley claimed to have served in and they didn't know him either. 

So before we even sent for records, we called him. We didn't record it but, after much dialog, he did admit to NOT being a GB. Before the phone call was over,

He offered to donate $1500 a quarter to the Green Beret Foundation if we swept this under the rug. SAY WHAT??????

We don't sell honor.

Here's his YouTube Link:

Video will soon be on Vimeo. Use the GOV link below

We reached out to our brothers at  http://guardianofvalor.com and they helped work this with us.

Bud Hadley, Fake green Beret, you'll forever be on The Guardians of the Green Beret Hall of Shame.

Zero?

This news is pretty sad for me because I knew the guy. The 1998 overwrite should read that he was the commander of C Troop, 1-18 Cav. I don't recall him wearing any tabs or badges. I am glad that a 19th Group (Guard) guy brought this to your attention. To me this casts a shadow of suspicion with anybody in the Guard. He left the Guard prior to GWOT. I think that the Guard did our share in GWOT with multiple mobilizations and deployments. I was mobilized twice, including a year in Afghanistan as an Infantryman. Now I'll wonder if people will think I'm a liar if I say anything about my service. Thanks Eddie...

Scott Berndt:

Talk about a disgrace to the uniform! I can't believe he got away with the fraud all those years. If you go to his website at

https://www.rudigresham.com, it still makes it sound like he has an Army SF background without stating he was one. He even has awards issued by several SF organizations. Sounds like the GotGB still have some hunting to do.

U.S. Naval Aircrewman (90-95):

Wow. Absolutely mind blowing & disgraceful. They should make a documentary about how this turd BS'd his way through the years in order to be in a position to be standing next to Presidents, politicians & celebritys. I get pissed when I think of all the others like him but that have never gotten exposed or caught. Great job catching this s--t turd.

U.S. Naval Aircrewman (90-95):

You can tell just by looking at him that he is a shit bird.

Royal Mons:

If these phonies want to play dress up they should join a re-enactment society and not lie about their fantasies and live off the sacrifice of others.

SOF VETTE:

FRANCO K WEBB is a LYING POSER. He and I were BEST FRIENDS during the time he CLAIMS 7th GP 18D (MY MOS and MY Duty assignment - ODA 755/754, O&I, SWC G Co SFAS, 1st Bn S3).

He was NEVER ASSOCIATED WITH, ASSIGNED TO, in SUPPORT OF, or attended ANY TRAINING that would qualify his claim of being an 18D.

He was a CAR STEREO SALESMAN and INSTALLER on Yadkin Road the ENTIRE TIME I KNEW HIM. We were in Westarea Fire Department TOGETHER and he lived in a trailer on Haretown road.

It APPEARS that he has taken some of MY SF TRAINING, HISTORY and BACKGROUND, claimed it as his own, and further EMBELLISHED those stories for his own video game centered bravado.

FRANCO K WEBB IS A GREEN BERET FRAUD

SuperUser Account:

He probably never will. The 7th Grp picture he pretends is his is an ODA from the mid-'80s. We've identified all men in the picture. It also looks like he added a Ranger Tab to his website. He's never before claimed Ranger so this is strange.

He and Mike Mika (President of SFA Ch 34) threatened to sue the SFA National if they didn't rescind the letter they sent us, give Rudi a formal apology, and re-instate him as a member in good standing. Of course SFA National refused and nothing came of his idle threat.

Mike Mika has twice, along with Rudi Gresham the fake Green Beret claimed that Rudi spent 12 years in the S.C. National Guard and that's where he attained the rank of LTC. Neither time were they able to produce records that baked up that statement.

SGT P - Rakkasan:

I just looked at his personal website, and it still has a picture autographed by General Yarborough, and a statement that says he served as Yarborough’s Aide. When will this clown give it up? I took screen shots.

Rick Upton:

Why is he working for the VA?

RobertEddy:

First of all, thank you folks for what you do, what you’ve done, and what you’re willing to do.

Secondly, it is my hope that Mr Prouix owns up to his lies. I have been watching this story and it disgusts me that there are people who would assume to receive the accolades deserved, but never sought, by better, braver, stronger men.

Mr Prouix needs to be exposed. Well done.
