Grenada Hero or ????

[377]

I am not a Ranger but I need some Ranger related info and hope you guys can help me out. I have no military experience, but am a skydiver, have made a few Herc and HALO jumps, made S/L jumps from smaller acft too many years ago, and something just sounded fishy about this story. The jumping S/L from 500 ft is OK, it's the rest of the story that I question.

A local guy who claims to be an ex Ranger says he jumped at 500 ft from a C 130 into Grenada (believable) and immediately upon landing single handedly killed SEVEN enemy soldiers manning a 30 cal machine gun in a building, killing two with his gun and five by hand (believable ????). He claims to have jumped with a "mini 14 carbine" and a "50 cal sniper rifle."

I can find no mention of this heroic event in any Grenada historical accounts.

Is this guy a hero or an imposter?

Thanks for any assistance you can give in confirming this guy as a hero or exposing his claims as untruthful.
