Considering his list of occupations, we
decided to keep it simple and provide irrefutable
evidence that he wears defence medals that he is not
entitled to. We have no concern about what the Legion of
Frontiersmen wear to their meetings as long as they do
not fraudulently wear Australian or other nation's
defence medals. We know the current executive of The
Legion of Frontiersmen Australian Division require that
their members comply with Honours and Awards protocol.
Some anecdotes relating to his Frontiersman's activities
have been included along with irrefutable facts.
What Robin says - Policeman in
Sarawak - 1960s
At age 19 years Robin was a "policeman"
in the British Sarawak Police Force, where he was
Mentioned in Despatches MID for his
police work during Confrontation with Indonesia. If you
look really hard, you can see his General Service Medal
complete with Oak Leaf (second medal from the left) for
this campaign, alongside that medal, on the right,
he wears another for his service in Sarawak, we believe
this is the Pingat Khidmet Berbakti (PKB) that was
issued to British Commonwealth personnel who were
seconded to Malaysian forces.
What is the truth - Police
Service in British Sarawak 1960s
Hale's claim of serving as a nineteen
year old policeman in Sarawak during the years of
Confrontation with Indonesia, and his award of the
imperial General Service Medal (GSM) with a Mentioned
in Dispatches Oak Leaf ( MID), in
addition to the Pingat Khidmet Berbakti is just plain
fraud. Hale is an imposter, a fraud and a liar,
he was not in Malaysia or anywhere else
overseas in the mid 1960s. Hale has been
accepted as a member of the Victorian Branch of the
Malaya Borneo Veterans Association Australia, (MBVAA)
another instance of an Ex Services Organisation bereft
of due diligence when vetting applications for
membership. Hale was able to use his
membership to this association as further false evidence
that he is a "genuine veteran". On the 3rd
march 1964 aged eighteen years and one month
Hale enlisted in the Australian Citizens Military
Forces, at 33 Company, Royal Australian Army Service
Corps (RAASC) in Melbourne. At the time of enlistment
he wrote on a Personal Data Sheet that he was in the
third year of a four year hairdressers apprenticeship,
therefore, we know what he was doing from 1961 to his
enlistment date. Following his enlistment in
March 1964, all of his time is accounted for well beyond
the time frame when he could have been awarded a GSM
for service in Sarawak. He was never there.
Below is a crop from his Personal Data Sheet completed
in 1964, and a sheet from his record of service that
accounts for his time from 1964 until 1968.
What Robin
Hale says - Served in South Vietnam
Hale claims to have
served in South Vietnam as an Army Reserve Officer
selected for a short term tour in South Vietnam.
What is the
truth about Hale's Service in South Vietnam
Army Reserve Officers
involved in short term trips to South Vietnam
subsequently became eligible for the Vietnam Logistics
and Support Medal (VLSM), but (completely out of
character) Hale claimed he did not apply for the
medal because he had too many bad memories about his
time in South Vietnam . In addition the cad
claims to have fathered a daughter whilst in
country, but had lost contact with her since the
communists took control. In relating this story Hale
has been seen shedding tears of sorrow. What a lot of
codswallop, this blokes deceit has no boundaries. He
never set foot in South Vietnam during that war, any
conception that took place would have been truly
immaculate.
What Robin
says - Freedom fighter in Afghanistan - 1979
In 1979 Robin Hale
"slipped" off to Afghanistan on a covert mission to work
with the Mujahideen freedom fighters and joined in
their war against the Soviet Union. Hale parachuted
into the province of Badakhshan on a clandestine
intelligence gathering mission and earned the title of
Sadar of Badakhshan. (Sadar
is a Hindu word that means Chief, therefore we have
"Chief of Badakhshan") For this service
Hale was given an honorary commission in the Afghanistan
Army and awarded an important Afghanistan
medal supposedly called "The Crown of Ammanullah".
The medal is the one with the dark ribbon, (it is
actually a deep emerald colour) first in line on his
left hand side next to the Malaysian GSM. Hale and some
of his friends have a photograph of himself and a
co-conspirator, bearded, wearing rugged knee boots,
heavy sweaters and beanies, Hale claims it was taken
during his "mission" into Afghanistan.
What is the truth about his
military service with the Mujahideen in Afghanistan in
the 1979
The citation and the
commission were coordinated by a UK Frontiersman known
as (don't ask why) the late "His Serene Highness Prince
Jamie Craik of Assington" who at the time was secretary
to His Royal Highness the King of Jordan whilst HRH was
in the UK. HRH the King of Jordan is the nephew of the
old King of Afghanistan - Zahir Shah.
The "covert raid" is no more than a
despicable conspiracy hatched up and facilitated by the
late "His Serene Highness Prince Jamie Craik of
Assington" , Hale and others to raise themselves to
hero status and to be able to fraudulently wear another
medal. The old King of Afghanistan - Zahir Shah was
living in Browns Hotel in London at the time. Craik was
working for the old kings nephew, HRH the King of
Jordan and was able to get his hands on all kinds of
blank documents The fake commission is known to have
been signed with the name "Hussein", but people who have
seen it believe it is a forgery signed by Hale himself
- don't know what they do to people in Jordan who
forge the Kings signature - you probably would lose an
appendage or two. Hale, a medal dealer, designed,
commissioned and borrowed the money to manufacture
the "The Crown of Ammanullah" for himself and others.
Some other Australians who also received "The Crown of
Ammanullah" for make believe service in Afghanistan,
chose not to wear it.
Hale was never in Afghanistan during 1979
the photo of himself and another supposedly taken in
Afghanistan whilst on the "mission" was taken in a
co-conspirators back yard in the leafy suburb of Eltham
in Melbourne.
We have an interesting explanation of
how genuine Afghanistan awards were made during this
time from an international expert on Afghanistan
affairs.
It is known that the exiled Zahir
Shah instituted and widely awarded a couple of
decorations while he was enjoying his exile in London
and Rome during the republic and socialist period. These
were -- as this example suggests -- not "normal" Afghan
awards and were entirely newly invented
"dynasty-in-exile" awards (and he may still be awarding
them even after his return to Afghanistan). While they
were usually awarded for financial contributions that
were nominally in support of the résistance, it has
never been proved that the funds ever reached them How
one views these unofficial "dynastic" awards that one
could earn simply if their cheque didn't bounce may
raise touchy issues with some.
It seems that whilst the old king
was selling his medals, so was his nephew's secretary
the late "His Serene Highness Jamie Craik of Assington".
What Robin says - Awarded a
Reserve Forces Decoration (RFD)
Robin wears a Reserve Forces Decoration,
awarded to him for fifteen years of efficient service as
an officer in the part time ranks of the Australian Army
Reserve. This medal allows the use of the post nominal,
"RFD".
What is the truth about the
Reserve Forces Decoration (RFD) and Sword of Honour
Hale joined the CMF in March 1964. He
attended an officer qualifying course from 4 February
1969 until Dec 1970, when he was commissioned as a
second lieutenant. To be eligible for the Reserve
Forces Decoration he would have to serve efficiently,
until at least the 4 February 1990. We believe Hale
resigned his commission well before February 1990 and
has no entitlement to the RFD. In relation to the
officer qualifying course attended by Hale in 1969/1970,
he claims to have won the Sword of Honour for achieving
first place on the course. Dream on Robin.
What Robin says - Queen Elizabeth
2nd Coronation Medal
In 1953, Robin, a seven year old Cub
Scout was selected as a car door opener for Her Majesty
Queen Elizabeth during her coronation ceremonies. For
this service Hale was awarded a coronation medal which
he has proudly worn on his Army Reserve Officers
uniform.
What is the truth about the
Coronation Medal
In March 1980 Hale is reported as wearing
the Coronation Medal together with his only legitimate
medal, the Australian National Medal and the fake
Afghanistan medal. (He may
also have a claim to the recently issued Australian Defence
Medal (ADM)). At this point in time we will leave
you to decide whether HRH really gave Robin Hale this
medal or is it just another example of Hale's deceit.
In due course we will receive official word from the UK
National Archives, and then update this entry.
What Robin says - A Count, a
General, a Knight
Robin Hale wears the military rank
of General. When in his regalia he also wears lots of
medals, badges and baubles to show that he is a Knight
Templar. For Robin Hale playing a Knight and General is
chicken feed, because he hails from German
aristocratic stock, on occasion he becomes Robin Von
Graf Halle (which means Robin Prince Count
Halle). People have suggested that he is well described
when called a Count, and we agree. Despite his claimed
aristocratic German lineage he was born in St Albans,
Hertfordshire, United Kingdom on the 2 Feb 1946. We bet
his family were not broadcasting their so called German
lineage in the United Kingdom at that time in History.
Another of Hale's Mates - "Bonny
Prince Michael"
Mick Lafosse born in Belgium and living
in Scotland decided he was heir to the Royal Stuart
family of Scotland and became "HRH Prince Michael of
Albany" he was also a good mate of Robin Hale. Lafosse
created lots of royal baubles like Lorraine and Templar
crosses and Knights things - for sale of course - and
we are reliably advised that Hale got some of his badges
and dangling things from the "Bonny Prince". Where is
the prince now? He was thoroughly discredited as a
fraud, the last we heard was that in 2004 he was running
as an independent in an election in the Czech Republic -
and still claiming to be a royal prince.
There are none lower than Robin Alan
Hale. He was an Australian Army Commissioned Officer,
a position that commands respect from Australian
soldiers and the community in general. By wearing fake
medals Hale has brought disgrace upon himself and lowers
the traditional high standards practised by Australian
Army Reserve Officers.
Hale is a worthless bag of wind, so full
of lies and deceit that he probably believes his own
rhetoric. He steals the honour of genuine
veterans whilst flouncing around in a clown suit wearing
high rank, covered in baubles, badges, and medals to
which he is not entitled . We are also reliably advised
that this cretin even wears counterfeit Legion of
Frontiersmen medals. We are confident that the
Australian Division of Frontiersmen will be
equally disgusted at the disclosure of the antics of
this ex Frontiersman, they, like us, do not
tolerate members fraudulently pretending to be
Australian veterans with honourable operational service.
Hale steals the honour of genuine
veterans.
Hale has committed serious
offences against the Defence Act 1903, namely section
80A, Falsely representing to be a returned servicemen
and section 80B, Improper Use of Service Decorations.
Each one of these offences carries a penalty of a fine
of $3300.00 and/or 6 months imprisonment.
This legislation is a toothless
tiger that was set up by politicians to influence the
veteran vote. Politicians, the Department of Public
Prosecutions, the Federal Police and State Police will
not pursue offenders under this legislation - Veterans
are disgusted with this inaction and demand prosecution
of offenders without fear or favour.
This failed Army Reserve officer has
offended veterans everywhere. He is a disgrace to his
peers, he should be marked as being not welcome in every
ex service establishment in the British Commonwealth. We
are reliably advised the Victorian Branch of the
National Malaya and Borneo Veterans Association
Australia (NMBVAA) have sent Hale on his way.
Ex service organisations who
through lack of care allow wannabes into their
organisations legitimise imposters by giving credence to
their lies. It has been shown over and over again that
when wannabes get into ex service organisation they
bring in their mates and jeopardise the integrity of the
veteran community.
