Douglas Dietrich lies about his father's service - Claims again he was reduced in rank

During a rancid and pathetic rant attempting to discredit and slander his detractors, Douglas Dietrich repeated his claim that his father George J. Dietrich had been "busted" (Non-Judicial Punishment or Article 15) from E-7 down to E-6. 

Dietrich also demonstrated a manipulation and/or lack of knowledge of the facts regarding the FOIA Act of 1974 and the Privacy Act.

"He was busted down, by a rank, he was stripped of a rank because he was married too many times.  Many of the wives complained and wrote that he wasn't supporting them, because he didn't like they fact they couldn't deliver him children because he was sterile from exposure to all the radiation tests, the nuclear tests, the atomic bomb tests from Bikini Atoll all the way to Enewetak, all over the Pacific".

So, even my dad said his balls glowed in the dark.  And as a result, he married my mother, an Asian thinking she would be more fertile". And because of the many complaints by all these white women, (five at least), the Navy accused him of creating a scandal and stripped him down by a rank because he had become a "sore eye on the Navy."

The claim is absolutely false.

According to the National Archives and Records Administration, (NA Form 13164), George Dietrich was awarded the US Navy Good Conduct Medal 7 times and was eligible for an 8th award.  This is evidence that he did not receive any disciplinary action or reduction in rank during his time of active duty service in the Navy.

"To be awarded the medal, a military member must serve three years without any formal discipline such as a Letter of Reprimand, Article 15 or Court Martial. This medal is automatic if the time is appropriately served".

George Dietrich was eligible for an 8th award of the Navy Good Conduct Medal but did not receive the award because he had not met the 3-year requirement at his retirement.

Douglas Dietrich's bogus "Vamphyrology" book was once titled "Red Undead: The Untold True Story of the Supernatural Soviets"

Dietrich's "Vamphyrology: The Vampire Research Paper" (312 pages, Sky Books (November 17, 2020) was once titled "Red Undead: The Untold True Story of the Supernatural Soviets".

"Red Undead" (336 pages, 2015), however, was never actually published nor was a single copy ever sold.

Dietrich had not mentioned the publication of a book until 2020.

Dietrich was interviewed on December 2, 2009, nearly 10 years before the publishing of "Vamphyrology: The Vampire Research Paper"

Beyond Ghosts Episode 45 – Interview with Doug Dietrich about WWII Russian Vampires

Posted by beyondghosts on Wednesday, 2 of December , 2009 at 6:12 am

Audio: http://beyondghosts.planetparanormal.com/wp-content/downloads/bgip45doug.mp3

During the interview, Dietrich claimed he was "working for the State of California at that time (2009) as a "documents destruction expert"  and employed a female co-writer who had a nervous breakdown dealing with the material.

Dietrich mentioned specific details regarding the "notes" he later used as the basis for a "manuscript." Those details are identical to those later published in "Vamphyrology: The Vampire Research Paper".

Dietrich later claimed that the publishing of "Red Undead" was a total failure due to the betrayal of others and the censorship of the US Government.

In fact, Dietrich would later claim in October 2020, that thousands of copies of the book had been published, but were "purchased and then destroyed" by the US government.

A search for publishing details revealed that Dietrich used the "Createspace" Independent Publishing Platform on June 25, 2015, to create the text and dimensions of the book on Amazon.

But Dietrich likely screwed up the publishing of the book himself.  No book cover was available in 2015 so Dietrich must have added it years later.  No credit was given to David J.West on the cover he created.

In 2020 Dietrich suddenly brings up the existence of the book "Red Dead" and claimed it was "Banned by the US Government".

"TONIGHT ON EVENTIDE WHENCE the DIETRICH GOES GOTH TO RECOUNT THE SUPPRESSED HISTORY BEHIND HIS BANNED BOOK ON THE GENOCIDAL COMMUNIST EXPLOITATION ‘O’ A SENTIENT HUMAN SUBSPECIES  And attempt to find thyself a single extant Copy." (10-7-20)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTYe9650Htc&t=39575s

(3:01: 55 to 3:14:20) Dietrich admits Red Undead is about vampires and  (9:45:30 to 11:16:25) admits a bomb was used to create a vampire research colony.

Dietrich mentioned he had worked with author  David J. West but would later accuse West of wanting to fictionalize the content and then actually stealing his book and attempting to publish it as his own. He then slandered West on his radio show for many months after.

I contacted Mr. West and published his response with permission:

https://rkcolejr.blogspot.com/2020/10/response-from-david-j-west-to.html

"I had worked on Red Undead in early 2012 to make it palatable to the public but I could not personally find it believable. I was interesting, yes, but like good historical fiction - which was the source of my original interest in Douglas.

I was upset with Lorien Fenton for trying to give me a cheap flat rate for working on it, so I quit working on the edits which Douglas was incredibly anal and ridiculous about. You clearly know how he writes and it's just not palatable to the lay audience.

As time went on I spent less and less time talking with him. He said a lot of things publicly that I didn't agree with and soon I felt it best to not have anything more to do with him.

I had to laugh about Doug's assertions about the book. He should know if it was ever published. It wasn't. I had no idea he dreamt up the conspiracy about it until you showed it to me."

A brief review of "Vamphyrology: The Vampire Research Paper"

The book  "Vamphyrology: The Vampire Research Paper" (Sky Books (November 17, 2020) is essentially a plagiarization of the work of an obscure, unknown Russian physician and professor "Feodor Stepanovich Andreiev," or material from an obscure magazine article or other publication embellished by or created by Dietrich himself.

An ISBN search clearly shows the author as Peter Moon:

The 312-page (3,628 words) book is challenging to read, primarily because of Dietrich's misuse of Russian vocabulary and the confusing spelling of words and terms that he apparently created himself.

His comments throughout are often an annoying distraction to the "story" and despite a year-long effort by his "co-author" Peter Moon to edit the manuscript, the result is a work of obvious (and messy) fiction writing.

The book begins with an introduction but has only 2 "chapters." The subject is the existence and study of a sub-species of humanlike vampires by an obscure Russian physician and professor who lectured on the subject from 1969 to 1972 at the University of Kiev.

Dietrich claimed the lectures were of a "highly classified subject matter" involving the medical internment of a "human subspecies" at a remote arctic facility in Novaya Zemlya prior to and after 1969-72.

"Patient Zero", a "homo sapien primate" (whose identity was never disclosed) was incarcerated at the Leningrad Psychiatric Institute in September 1940 under the observation of Dr. Andreiev. The patient claimed to be at least 70 years old but appeared to be in his early 20s.

The Patient was later determined fit for military service during WW2 despite having been discovered "feeding off schizophrenic male patients in their sleep." Dr. Andreiev had discovered the patient was "high" and experiencing altered states of consciousness after ingesting other patients' blood.

"Patient Zero" later assaulted a female military nurse on the Eastern Front after being "forcefully conscripted" into the Soviet Army Special Services. But further references to "patient zero" do not appear in the book after.

The story suddenly turns to the use of similar "vampires" by the Russians against the Germans in Berlin during WW2. "Unnatural Units" attacked and killed innocent civilians and German soldiers alike as Russian "political officers" using dogs, searched for and located victims for the vampires.

The vampires were later executed by the Soviets using machine guns. Later, "Kirlian" cameras were used to track down, apprehend and kill the species in Russia after the war. 

But according to his questionable source, the Soviets later decided to use a nuclear weapons test to kill the inhabitants of Navaja Zemlya using the Tsar Bomba: on October 30, 1961. 

Location of Tsar Bomb Detonation Oct 30, 1961

The "covert special research and education facility" was then created on Navaja Zemlya near Russkaja Gavan in 1966.

The remote Arctic facility housed a concentration of "Vamphyr Primates" in harsh weather with conditions of darkness for 6 months of the year. Despite this, many of the vampires were able to escape using flows of ice broken up by Soviet ships.

Russian Spetznaz then guarded the colony armed with AKs using "hollow-point silver slugs filled with crushed garlic. Dietrich claims that the vampires then escaped or avenged themselves by killing the soldiers who they considered an inferior species and referred to as "white niggers" accusing them of racism and "anti-vampire demcism (sic)."

The vampires were later able to secret themselves within the Russian population and emigrated to the United States as "displaced persons". Operating as an "unofficial fifth column", they later killed 14, 400 Americans per year.

But at the approximate 1,600 word count, the story devolves into a disjointed reciting of "military" history ranging from the 1700s to WW2 and the Cold War with an obvious anti-American sentiment.  

At the 2,275 word point, the book suddenly begins to repeat large portions of previously written information from the introduction and descriptions of "Patient Zero."

It then returns to the tedious subject of "vampire science/biology" where Dietrich describes the female vampire:

It finally finishes with an abrupt ending where Dietrich accuses the professor of dehumanizing and abusing the captive vampires and likens him to Soviet Biologist Ilya Ivanovich Ivanov.

No mention was ever made of the fact that the remote arctic area of Novaya Zemlya had been used as a testing zone for Soviet nuclear weapons since 1954.

A revised version of my previous post about the book and the issue of the plagiarizing of the book's cover photo and the questionable origin of the material used as the basis for the book can be read here:

Douglas Dietrich falsely claims there are no records of DOD Civilian Employees who worked at the Presidio

During his latest (June 1) Livestream (3:41:30 - 3:48:30) 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Ixd9oU_mqE&t=40417s

Douglas Dietrich claims that George Knight (a cult follower living in the UK):

"Wrote to a record keeper with the Department of Defense (DOD) who said they maintained no records for the civilian workers who worked for the Department of Defense at the Presidio military base."

(Knight has previously claimed he has "researched everything Douglas Dietrich has ever claimed and found it to be true.")

No details were provided regarding the so-called response from the DOD.  Technically, the statement of the so-called "records keeper" (who was not named nor was a specific title or responding office given) is correct.

The Department of Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC) maintains a database of all DOD employees (military and civilian).  They will verify the dates of active duty service of current and former service members, and the job title and dates of employment of current and former civilian employees.

The DMDC does not maintain the actual official personnel records associated with military or civilian DOD employees. 

https://dwp.dmdc.osd.mil/dwp/app/main

The DOD does not maintain the records of former civilian employees separated after 1952. Dietrich was implying that there are no records of those who worked at the Presidio, including himself!  This is totally false.

Had Dietrich actually been a civilian employed by the DOD, he would know this.  He would also be aware that he could submit a request to the National Personnel Records Center (NPRC) to obtain a copy of his own Official Personnel File for a small fee.

Any former DOD civilian employee who worked at the Presidio can do the same thing.

According to the National Archives: The Official Personnel Files (OPFs) of Federal employees including the Department of Defense are in the custody of the Office of Personnel Management for 120 days following separation, after which they are maintained by the National Personnel Records Center (NPRC), St. Louis, MO.

"OPFs for former Federal civilian employees separated after 1951 remain in the legal custody of the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). Access to such records is restricted under the Privacy Act of 1974 (P. L. 93-579) and only limited types of information from these records are releasable to non-authorized users under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).

Former Federal Civilian Employees (the person of record): may obtain copies of most civilian and personnel medical records on file at the NPRC, including copies of the Standard Form 50 (SF-50) (Personnel Action) via written request. Different release procedures apply for archival civilian personnel records (see OPF, Archival Holdings and Access). Please note: OPFs are retired to the center within 120 days after separation from Federal employment. If less than 120 days have elapsed since separation, write to the last employing Federal office."

https://www.defense.gov/Help-Center/Article/Article/2746440/separated-dod-civilian-employee-personnel-records/

https://www.archives.gov/personnel-records-center/civilian-non-archival

Once again, Dietrich's idiot clowns step forward to defend him by attempting to discredit the evidence against him, while having no clue what they are talking about.

I challenge Douglas Dietrich to obtain those records and present them publicly, otherwise, he is lying about everything he claims about working at the Presidio.

How to verify any image published by Douglas Dietrich using Google Image Search

Douglas Dietrich has a long history of plagiarizing images created by others and claiming them as his own.

This is how I have exposed him.  I even called it - "Dietrich fake cosplay photo of the day".

You can visit this to see examples: https://ellgab.com/index.php?topic=1027.7515#lastPost

Dietrich in about 1985

Example of Dietrich's images now

Dietrich will usually publish the images on Facebook. These are the steps I have used.

1. Isolate the image: Click on the image itself. 

2. Right-click on the image and select "Copy image address"

3, Open Google in a separate window and click on the camera icon to "search by image"

4. Paste the selected image into the Google search box and click "search by image"

5. Review the results. (You may need to use Google Translate)

In most cases, the search will result in a series of websites related to Asian cosplay.

Dietrich has become more "crafty" about this in the last few years. What he posts on his public FB fan page "promotion"  is usually different from the images he uses for his actual YouTube live stream. 

Dietrich will also avoid, or actually save and crop these images in order to avoid showing any watermark. I have caught him doing these hundreds of times.

It is also possible to create a screen capture of the live stream image by cropping it carefully and saving it as a .Jpeg file.  If you have a separate URL to post it to, you can then conduct the same search I describe above.

Sometimes a search will result (as in the case of this image I published) in a link back to Dietrich as the publisher.  But this is rare.  

It also proves that Dietrich knows people are checking the origins of these images, and is specifically choosing them from more obscure sources in order to deter people from identifying them.

But, his bullshit gig is up.

Have fun.

Douglas Dietrich and the "Castle Bravo" Nuclear Weapons Test Lie

Dietrich's Claim:

In April 2018, an emotional (sobbing) Douglas Dietrich claimed his father was aboard an aircraft carrier in the Pacific near Bikini Atoll and Enewetak Atoll on March 1, 1954, and was a witness to the "Castle Bravo" thermonuclear weapon test.

Dietrich claimed that prior to the test, his father had witnessed a sailor (or two) disappear during a bar fight somewhere and said one was a "shifter".  Dietrich makes a piss-poor attempt to associate his father with sailors affected by the "Philadelphia Experiment" who were suddenly appearing from nowhere in bars and starting brawls, and then disappearing.

Years later, he claimed to have observed the same "shifter" wearing a Naval Flag Officer's Uniform.

(That's Admiral/General rank for all you non-military folks).

The crew of the carrier were all topside and ordered to stand completely still while exposed to the blast. But just before the blast, his father tackled the "shifter" who then turned into a pillar of lead, shielding him from the effects while the others were fully exposed, and later died over time suffering from cancer.

Dietrich was likely inspired by a 2015 article by Paul Huard - "Those Who Witnessed Castle Bravo Looked Into Armageddon"

"Zero hour for Bravo was at 6:45 a.m. local time on March 1. From the moment the device detonated, many of the observers knew something had gone spectacularly wrong.

The flash from the nuclear explosion was overwhelming, even by the standards of nuclear explosions. Men saw their bones appear as shadows through their living flesh. Streams of blinding light shone through the smallest cracks and pinholes in secured doors and hatches.

Bravo’s thermal radiation was far more intense than expected. More than 30 miles away from Ground Zero on Bikini Atoll, sailors on board Navy ships said the heat was like having a blowtorch applied to their bodies". - Paul Huard

George Dietrich was in the Mediterranean Sea during the "Castle Bravo" test:

George Dietrich was serving on the USS Gilbert Islands (CVE-107) from April 1953 until March 1954 and upon returning from a cruise to the Mediterranea Sea, he then reported to Naval Attack Squadron VA-15 and was assigned to Navy Aviation Schools Command (NAVSCOLSCOM) Newport, RI where he was stationed until Dec 1954.

"The escort carrier stood out on 5 January 1954 for a Mediterranean cruise, returning to Quonset Point on 12 March 1954 for reserve training and other exercises."

There was not an aircraft carrier present:

Two ships were operating as the joint command during the test. The USS Curtiss (AV-4) and USS Estes (AGC-12). 

"As 1954 began, ESTES, now with her elephant-ears removed, took her departure for the Marshall Islands for her second thermonuclear test series: "Operation CASTLE," serving as flagship for Joint Task Force 7. This protracted series of tests lasted until 16 May, after which ESTES escorted USS CURTISS (AV-4) back to San Diego."

US Navy Ships Affected:

The US Navy tanker USS Patapsco was at Enewetak Atoll in late February 1954. Patapsco lacked a decontamination washdown system, and was therefore ordered on 27 February, to return to Pearl Harbor at the highest possible speed.^[46] 

A breakdown in her engine systems, namely a cracked cylinder liner, slowed Patapsco to one-third of her full speed, and when the Castle Bravo detonation took place, she was still about 180 to 195 nautical miles east of Bikini.^[46] 

Patapsco was in the range of nuclear fallout, which began landing on the ship in the mid-afternoon of 2 March. By this time Patapsco was 565 to 586 nautical miles from ground zero. The fallout was at first thought to be harmless and there were no radiation detectors aboard, so no decontamination measures were taken.

 Measurements taken after Patapsco had returned to Pearl Harbor suggested an exposure range of 0.18 to 0.62 R/hr.^[46] Total exposure estimates range from 3.3 R to 18 R of whole-body radiation, taking into account the effects of natural washdown from rain, and variations between above- and below-deck exposure.^[46]

Daigo Fukuryū Maru

A Japanese fishing boat, Daigo Fukuryū Maru (Lucky Dragon No.5), came in direct contact with the fallout, which caused many of the crew to grow ill due to radiation sickness. One member died of a secondary infection six months later after acute radiation exposure, and another had a child that was stillborn and deformed.^[39] This resulted in an international incident and reignited Japanese concerns about radiation, especially as Japanese citizens were once more adversely affected by US nuclear weapons

A previous test in June-July 1947 involved 95 ships.

"The Navy placed 95 vessels, including aircraft carriers and destroyers, in Bikini Atoll’s lagoon, and hundreds of animals were strapped to the decks to monitor the blast’s effects. Thousands of U.S. soldiers were positioned on naval ships outside the blast zone and then brought in to survey the damage, retrieve the irradiated animals, and decontaminate the vessels that were exposed to high levels of radiation."

A previous claim:

Dietrich has also made the claim that his father was on Enewetak Atoll and killed MSgt John C. Woods in July 1950.

These images of the Presidio Post Library were taken by Steven Outtrim in September 2016:

Update 9/27/16

"Thanks to Presidio Trust Director of Hospitality Karen Maggio and one of our fans, Jan Irvin and I were given a personal tour of the Presidio today. We went inside the former Post Library building, and can confirm that there are no chimneys, incinerator, or basement. There is nothing there to indicate the facility was suitable in any way for document destruction or Satanic covens doing rituals around ancient grimoires kept in special refrigerators. The incinerator was located at an entirely different part of the base, next to the haunted mental hospital; you would need to drive to get between the two buildings. Mr Dietrich has said on air many times that he doesn’t drive."

Douglas Dietrich Facing Further Exposure After Attacking Supporters

Two of Douglas Dietrich's closest supporters Jameson Reese and Salman Sheikh have now distanced themselves from him following a protracted period of abuse by Dietrich.

After communicating briefly with Jameson Reese and Salman Sheikh I believe this could well be the downfall of Douglas Dietrich, and possibly lead to a withdrawal of Peter Moon (Vincent Barbarick) as well.

I was surprised to have them post or accept requests to my Facebook page almost immediately in the days following Dietrich's 6-hour attack on Sheikh on May 22. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1tEAxnaVLxg&t=10801s

I have agreed to appear as a guest on Salman Sheikhs' podcast in the near future, but I encouraged them both to review my blog and interviews with others about Dietrich, Moon, and Anderson first. After all, this is why I created the blog in the first place so that followers of Dietrich and researchers who suspected he was a fraud could review the evidence and decide for themselves.

Hopefully, this will clear up any speculation or confusion regarding how I became involved, and what I have experienced from Dietrich as a result of exposing his false claims of military service (2016) which has been a public disclosure of my personal identifying information (including SSN, unlisted phone, private VA medical data) and nearly 5 years of constant defamation and slander.

Basically, this is how things arrived at this point.  After months of Dietrich treating Jamo like shit and making disparaging remarks about him and Salman, Salman made the decision to withdraw his involvement for a time.  The tactful manner in which he accomplished this is commendable.  

Meanwhile, many of Dietrich's listeners and subscribers were becoming upset with the way Dietrich was abusing people and began to approach Salman about it.  But the attack on Jamo during the May 18 show would become the catalyst for what would happen.

It's important (and also rare), that people have the other side of the story from Jamo and Salman.  Apparently, according to Jamo, Dietrich approached him and asked him to cast a spell on his medical cosmetologist Venus ("V") Clark who had publicly disavowed and distanced herself from Dietrich 2 or 3 years ago.  Jameson complied, but later dissolved the spell at Dietrich's request.

Not long after, Dietrich asked Jamo to place a "binding" spell on Peter Moon and again he complied with the request.  But Moon would become aware of it soon after overhearing part of a conversation between Dietrich and Jamo following a broadcast.  Around this time, during a trip to California for an event at  Mt. Shasta, Moon and "JoJo" visited Dietrich in San Francisco where they had a discussion about making changes to the show.

Dietrich lied to Moon about his involvement in asking Jamo to cast the spell on Moon and placed the blame entirely on Jamo. At some point after, Moon demanded Jameson be removed as producer, and the suggestion Moon later made during a live stream, was not to allow Salman back into the group. After witnessing the attacks on Jamo and then himself, Salman was approached by his friends and others who were very upset and concerned.

Both Jamo and Salman then published responses to Dietrich separately.  Both recognize that previous members of Dietrich's cult left quietly even as Dietrich continued his defamation and slander for months, even years, and are now determined to fight back by publicly exposing Dietrich.  I have given them permission to use my research and they have my full support.

Both Reese and Sheikh have responded publicly and published these videos on their respective YouTube channels.
