Got a guy claiming to be TACP who's trying to date my fiance's best friend. Any surefire questions to ask him? They met on a dating website and he immediately told her he's in special ops (bullshit strike 1) and uses special forces and special operations interchangeably (bullshit strike 2). I want strike 3 for this sucker.

I was shooting for something that you can't Google but I think she started to catch on to what I was getting at and asked him why he kept saying Special Forces when she was pretty sure that was an Army thing. He back peddled real quick and his story kinda fell apart. Then he stopped responding  to her and appeared to delete his profile. Wish I could have gotten that guy's name. Thanks for the suggestions though fellas.

Ask for pics of him wearing his beret.  It better be black and have a metal flash, not blue and embroidered.

That's funny right there...   I swear, security forces must be some of the biggest jackoffs in the military.  Thankfully we never had to deal with them, the only AF guys we ever knew were the TACPs that were attached to our Bn...

TACP are different depending on the service.  The Air Force it is AFSC while Marines it is a group of people that include FACs, AOs, JTACs, JFOs, scout observers and radio operators

I was security forces....and I feel that we had a high rate of jaggofs.  

I wasn't one of them.  I got out rather than be part of the jaggoffery any longer.  But they are not all bad; just what you get when you comprise a military law enforcement outfit of mostly people who don't want to be there and then force them into an additional role of defense force without adequate training.

Who claims to be TACP?  Seriously.

He probably is TACP, but assigned to an infantry unit.
