Have you ever heard of guy named Frank Dux?
This is the man who was the subject of the movie "Bloodsport" starring
Jean Claude Van Damme, and the book The Secret Man.
Well, Frank Dux is a phony. A bullshitter. A con
man who conned a publisher and a movie maker.
I'm reading Stolen Valor by B. G. Burkett. Stolen Valor is a book about phonies who claim
to be combat veterans of the Vietnam War. Burkett, who uses the Freedom
of Information Act, has unmasked hundreds of phoney Vietnam "veterans"
and "war heroes." Among them is Frank Dux, the purported military hero/
Ninja fighter/secret agent.
Frank Dux served in the Marine Reserve in the
1970s--AFTER Vietnam. He was given a psychiatric evaluation for
grandiose delusions.
He did NOT hold the Navy Cross, Silver Star,
DSC, Bronze Star, Navy and Marine Corps Medal, Purple Heart, and--get
this--a "secret"
Medal of Honor. He was no master Ninja fighter, either.
If you see the book The Secret Man, it's bullshit.
"Bloodsport" is also fiction.

Frank Dux is a liar and is running McDojos in Mexico
