Dave Canterbury - Pathfinder - Claims debunked

[emergprep]

I agree that if claims were exagerated or out and out misleading then they need to be amended. That being said, my interest in Dave and the pathfinder school is not based on his military background, it is based on his bushcraft knowledge and the schools goals to certify teachers of this art. I have personally sent my money in an effort to do so. This cerftification will help in my endeavor to push some BSA education to a higher level as older scouts bail out becasue they are getting bored with the standard stuff. I will defend this effort to no end! My question to Deisel is this; Is my time done here as well? I would like to think not. I find this forum to be very well done and informative on many levels. Very little flaming and a good meeting of the minds so to speak. I personally think that maybe, just maybe this thread has gone way beyond the scope of things and needs to be locked out to prevent any further b/s to rise to the surface. k? JMHO, Todd

First off his bio says he's a sniper on his own website, he was NEVER a sniper, second of all you're done here, don't let the door hit you in the ass Dave's friend.

To be honest I Doubt it has anything to do with money and everything to do with Stolen Valor and people who have done their time in the military and served this country take great offense to ANY flase military claims, and rightfully so, right?

So what are you here at our forum for, just to support Dave who you have never met and don't know? It's the only topic you have joined in on.

So what are you here to dispute that he never said he was a sniper? Or that he infact was one.

Bizzar that you came here to defend him, and are not citing the issues people have with him as money motivated? LOL

Yes rightfully so if and I say if it is true.

I have joined in on other topics check it out.

The show said he had sniper training can you prove different?

Did you mean Bizzare?

Simply answer my question

N0!:D

I have no connection in anyway with Dave other than liking the show he is on.

What gripes me is a guy that starts making a little money jealous people come out of the woodwork to tear them down.

If he fabricated his resume that is completely wrong of him to do so. I am going to have to have something better than FOAL's word on the subject to think differently.

I personally don't think he has any connection with Dave.
I think he just has a strong dislike for bushcraftusa like I do.

Not a good place over there.

Correct on all 3 statements.

[Diesel]

Huh? This is a discussion forum correct? Have I violated forum rules, if I have I will quit posting.

I thought this place was different than Bushcrap USA. A place you can have an opinion on a subject without all the other BS.

Seems like Dave is more popular than ever now. Any publicity is good publicity, at least that is what they say in Hollywood.

Well, he is a prooven liar, but I will trust him this time....

[badkarma]

I do believe the guy knows his stuff, I believe he's done alot of research and trial over the years and at this point is capable and a worthy survivalist and bushcraft expert. He's come a long way since he became publicly visible.. but haven't we all? All in all If I were him i'd make a public statement and retraction about the mil claims, and let that be that.

+1 to that. He deffinately knows his stuff, and has deffinately cleaned up his image since going mainstream.
