How many times has Lance been attacked by Team Strider? Talk about lies and witch hunts, he has been called every dirty name in the book all over the internet. It seems that every time anyone posts anything about Strider on the net somebody comes along and states, Its just Lance, nothing new. So yea I think its relevant that he would post this here which clears his good name.
To date I have not read one thing posted by Lance Harris that has not proven to be accurate concerning Mick Strider or Duane Dwyer.

"every time anyone posts"
That's because Lance is one of the lead Commentators. Could you kindly direct me to a site/post/thread/forum where the Strider Guys "say" false stuff against the guy?
Then we can get back to the issue unless you want to change this to Lance proving he's no Poser. I think there's more than enough to show that Lance is what he says he is so maybe we can put this to rest and stay on topic

Come on now "wolfie"... we are as on track as we have ever been. Nothing wrong with Lance showing some honest, verfiable credentials or reference letters that are verifiable.
Cause he has had a lot to say and IMO this lends credence to the validity of it....IN ADDITION TO THE FACT that it all so far as I can tell ... has proven to be true concerning the "Strider Guys", Mick & Duane.
You also took what Bubba#1 said above out of context
He said Team Strider ... not , Strider Guys.
He also had the words It seems ... in front of ... "every time anyone posts".
The BIG problem, as far as I can tell and as far as I know after checking everywhere I know too.... is that...........
..........we have still heard not a thing from Duane [Poland / Dwyer] that is verifiable. IF, I am wrong please correct me.
Have I made a mistake "taking him at his word" untill the SOON to be released Scout Sniper Association statement appears on the horizon ?
It is sure looking like I have.
Oh well, I was only a " potential customer" anyway untill all this was straightened out. I can just as easily be an ex - potential customer. I'll survive, even though I really did want one of those folders......

So, has the USMC Scout Sniper Association released a statement confirming that Duane was indeed a member? That was supposed to happen soon, if I recall correctly.

Gene, I know about that, but Duane said that there would be some kind of a statement from the Scout Sniper Association. I'm just wondering if that statement has been released, and if so, what it contained.

Allow me to speculate for a moment; if Duane were a member of the Association they would have NOT said that he was not. If they made an error saying he wasn't and in fact he was they would have printed a correction.
The longer I think about this the more I find it amazing that an Attorney would not allow some form of proof be printed to stop this type of thread from continuing. I cannot think of any other situation where someone's good name was dragged through the mud and they were advised to stay kept completely silent and advised to tell friends to also not say a thing. When one of the rags like the Enquirer writes trash about Someone, that someone denies it, threatens litigation and then provides some small tidbit of proof to substaniate that the person is what he said he is or did not do what the rag said he did. What benefit is there for DD to allow this to continue? If he does file suit, the damage he claims to have occurred has already occurred. Proving it false and malicious before Trial does not in any way hurt his case, how could it. I would think a person who can protect himself can not sit on his thumbs and allow himself to be beaten to a pulp and then place all the blame for his injuries on the defendant. It would be kind of like having a $100 fender bender and then purposely accelerating to 100 and hitting a tree and then suing the person who caused the fender bender for all the damages and injuries. Does that make sense or am I way off base?
Also, It has got to effect his business, even in a small way by folks claiming he's a Poser and providing their proof he is all over the Internet. I also would not be at all surprised if they directed some Governmental Agencies throughout the USA to read some of the stuff (pure speculation here). One would think LE Agencies would not want the liability of having him as an Instructor. Would Companies that make Sniper weapons/optics, etc. want Dwyer as their spokesman, and would our Government award Contracts to a Company whose owner has been called a Poser. Would they not?
Man, if the proof that DD is a USMC Sniper with an impressive record and proof he has trained with sniper teams all over the globe is out there; it appears to be secret info known only to DD, is being kept secret now to further a Libel/slander lawsuit, and he has told his friends and close associates to say nothing and is doing all this for ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

TA DA !
Good morning gentlemen. Any "breaing news" overnight ?
SSA release their statement yet ?
You remember, the one DD said they were going too ... soon ?
I can't find it. Did any of you all ?
I guess the word "soon" is taking on a whole new meaning ??
Probably could find it in the .....................
New & Constantly Evolving SK Dictionary / [ Updated Daily or As Need Be ]
....hey, it's bound to be a top seller among some ..... IF, after the poop all hits the fan the sale of nicely crafted metals takes a nose dive..... this could be a "life saver"....
I honestly wish DD / DP would just come clean.... I reaally do........
I hate to see anybody go down / end up .... like this. It is a sad situation.
Come on DD, step up.... come clean, whatever that is....
...........step up, but do it real soon...... salvage what you can ..

Wondering if, any one knows anything about the spin off company?

IIRC it was run by DD but the Instructors were usually pat Rogers and Steve Tarani.
Both in my book (until proven otherwise) are the real deal and more than capable and competent to Instruct in these types of topics. In this case DD did it right by not teaching himself but using experts instead. Real experts.................................
Lord, I hope I don't end up eating more crow by saying all this.
