Our friends over at militaryphony.com send us "Yet Another Phony Seal" … so it's YAPS time again boys and girls.
It seems Jose has been prancing around in such a way that some folks thought he was a Navy SEAL, or that maybe he had pulled out of something before he ever really inserted anything. Follow along below and maybe you will get the thrust of things.
BACKGROUND
Jose Carlos Montanez (-Nazario) comes to us from Chesapeake, Virginia. He is originally from Bayamon, Puerto Rico and appears to still have a residence there in addition to Virginia. Montanez is 50 years old at the time of this writing – Dec 2021.
Notice in the above post that someone, presumably a friend, is under the impression that "Monty" is a Frogman. Montanez does not correct him.
On a Facebook account that bears his name, there are several posts that show him wearing a SEAL Trident. One person commented that the Trident looked Photoshopped on his Navy uniform, the medals were not the proper size and he did not have Jump Wings (i.e. a Parachute Badge).
In the following photo, there is a Navy SEAL Trident on the ball cap.
On a Facebook post in another group, Montanez chimes in about the accuracy of a television series depiction of Navy SEALS. He is asked by a real SEAL which BUD/S class he was in to which Montanez promptly replied "Class 176." Montanez also added the acronym S.p.e.i. [sic] but is it actually S.P.I.E. and stands for "SpecialPatrolInsertion/Extraction."
Let this be a lesson to all… NEVER PULL OUT BEFORE YOU HAVE FULLY INSERTED.
On Montanez's Facebook page under the 'About' section, there is a claim of being a Chief Petty Officer and serving in the Navy from 1988-1997 with U.S. Navy UDT/SEAL Team.
On Montanez's Facebook page there are frequent postings of Navy SEAL images. Although not representative of direct claims, some could read this as an implication.
There was another posting where Montanez commented about a photo taken on a 110 camera in 1990, allegedly in Panama.
One way to read this is that there is an implication that it is a Navy SEAL in the photo, possibly even him, and it was from the U.S. efforts to remove Manuel Noriega. The overall operation was Operation Just Cause but there was an effort by the U.S. Navy SEALs named Operation Nifty Package which was an operation launched by Navy SEALs to prevent Noriega's escape. They were able to sink Noriega's boat as well as destroy his jet. Unfortunately, four U.S. Navy SEALs were killed and nine wounded.
So, one can imagine how emotions run deep with someone claiming to have been there. Montanez has been called out many times on several Facebook discussions, but images and implications persist on Social Media as to SEAL claims.

ACTIONS CONDUCTED BY MILITARY PHONIES
After contacting the UDT/SEAL archives and checking the UDT/SEAL database we found that there is NO record of "Jose Carlos Montanez" or any other variation of his name ever completing BUD/S Training or assigned to any SEAL teams.
Jose Martinez's military records were ordered through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.
Due to his age and claim of service dates, we filed with the Department of the Navy which maintains records from the mid 1990s-present.
It should be noted here that Jose Montanez has several variations associated with his name and he was identified as serving under "JOSE C. MONTANEZ-NAZARIO."

DISCUSSION and SUMMARY
BUD/S – SEAL
There is no record of Jose Montanez-Nazario graduating BUD/S-SEAL training and no record of him serving with a SEAL Team.
We did notice that in one of the discussion threads (Navy SEALS: Only Easy Day Was Yesterday) Montanez was called out on the SEAL claim, that he said that he went to BUD/S but didn't finish. This still doesn't sync up with the claims of being on a UDT/SEAL team as was claimed on his Facebook page.
RANK
According to his official military records, Montanez was discharged as an E-1 vs Chief Petty Officer (E-7) as claimed on his Facebook profile.
TIME IN SERVICE
According to multiple official military sources, Montanez served from 1989-1990 vs. the 1988-1997 as claimed. He served just over five (5) months.
There are several claims of being a disabled veteran. It is plausible that he got out due to an injury, but this would not have been a result of combat or there would have been a Purple Heart in his records. He did not claim to have been awarded a Purple Heart.
PANAMA
There is nothing in Montanez's official military records that would support him being in Panama, but the claim is somewhat murky.
If Montanez has used false claims to gain anything of value – he may be in violation of the Stolen Valor Act at worst or represent unethical behavior at best.
. . . . .
So there we have it boys and girls. My guess is that most people who come across this particular Jose Montanez realize that he is a Goofy Bastard in short order. The USS Harlan County was a Gator Navy ship that hauled Jarheads to places this idiot could probably not pronounce. The Sailors of the Great Gator Navy, past and present, are an exceptional group of people. Being on an LST in rough seas is something you shall never forget… I won't. I have no idea why the Navy decided to flush this turd in such a short period of time.
Most Jarheads are told not to play with the Seamen… but as the old saying goes "It's not gay if you are underway, it's only queer if you are at the pier". I think he served during the "Don't ask, Don't tell" era so we may never know.
In any event, Jose Montanez needs to knock off all of this Navy SEAL nonsense of his. Insofar as I can tell, the only parts of his stories that involved insertion or extraction were pulled right out of his ass.
Jose Montanez-Nazario was never a Navy SEAL, never went to BUDS to try and become a Navy SEAL, he never inserted into or extracted anything from a Navy SEAL. He NEVER earned a Navy Trident.
If he was playing with Seamen in dark places… he should keep it to himself.
