Lt. Col. (R) Tony Aguilar is not only a liar, but he is also an unhinged, incompetent narcissist, and I can prove it.
Buckle up, because this thread includes receipts that proves Tony was fired for cause, begged for his job back, resorted to threats when he was denied, and ultimately made up a story to get back at his previous employer and gain personal fame and notoriety. He even forged an official document that he then sent to the press.
Let's start with a bit about Tony's background in the Army, a career that looks fine on paper, but has some striking red flags that those that understand the Special Forces community will immediately recognize.
Tony boasts that he "commanded from the Platoon level to the Battalion level," in an email I will share later, but what he fails to disclose is that none of those commands were in Special Forces. His only Special Forces command was as a CPT on an ODA. His subsequent commands were at SWCS (a training group) and 18th Airborne, respectively.
For those of you unaware, if a Special Forces officer is not chosen to command in Special Forces at the Company and then Battalion level, then they were passed over for a reason. The scraps are commanding a non Special Forces unit (unless you were picked to command at JSOC or some other SMU, which is entirely different), and it is a clear sign that this officer was not fit for command in the regiment.
After his 18th Airborne command (yes, it is telling for a SF officer to command in a regular army unit), he found himself returning to SWCS as a staff officer miles away from the thought of a command billet. He then floundered there doing nothing of value for a few years before finally being forced out because of the inability to continue moving up in rank.
Now, it's time for the real information. Despite Tony's claim that he resigned from his position, he was most definitely fired. It is actually hilarious that Tony would try to claim he resigned when he sent the texts below shortly after being fired from his position.
He starts with: "Dan, I can be of value to the team. You know that. I just retired from 25 years in the Army in March, just a bit over 60 days. It's hard to break or even recognize "the way I am."
Does a person that just resigned send a text like this? "Tomorrow and Sunday are my '2 days off'. I want to stay on the team and on the contract. Put in an ops support role. Put the guy coming on Saturday as the JOC TL, and I'll be support to ops."
Do I need to break this down more? You can see the response text, you can see him admitting he was wrong and that he was clearly relieved for cause, as the reasonings for his dismissal were discussed with him. "I accept responsibility for not being self aware enough to self correct. But I can. I will."
He was fired. He admits he was fired. He begs for his job back. Now he is lying about it.
The following day, June 14th, he sent another text, this one is Tony, once again, admitting that he was wrong and that he was fired, and then begging for his job back.
"I do not want to leave. I understand my current contract as the JTOC operator is terminated. Fine. But I can be put on a new contract."
Weird that he would lie about this but be telling the truth about his claims of murder, right?
A week later it starts getting interesting. Tony realizes that his first attempt at work outside of the Army, much like his Army career, was falling apart and would further tarnish his already dubious reputation in SF circles, so he started lashing out with threats and, you guessed it, more and more lies.
He sends another message on June 21st. "John - got it. I just came off Chemo from stage 4 cancer before I took this job. Both of my children are adopted. 1 is blind, the other is autistic. I understand family 1000%. All the more why me being here is important. I earned two Purple Hearts, a silver star and a bronze star for valor in combat. Look it up. I will drag my nuts across 100 miles of glass before I capitulate to bullshit. Figure something out, or I'm on a plane come Tuesday and the gloves are off."
Facts: Tony only has 1 Purple Heart. He does not have a Silver Star.
He has never had cancer in any stage. Only one of his children is adopted, and none of them are blind.
He is lying about his self and his own family to try and gain sympathy. How absolutely pathetic. You could stop reading now and be convinced at what a lying douche this guy is, but I bet you will read on because there is so much more.
The next day he texts another UG Solutions lead, and you can see he is getting even more aggressive and erratic.
He says, "You know, Mo. I like you. This doesn't have to be this way. I can be your best friend, or your worst nightmare. Stop F-ing around, put me back to work, and let's get this mission done."
You can see the rest of the threats. He ends with, "As stated, I like you. You're a good dude. If you want to play games, we can play games."
The threats just keep on coming...
Tony then fabricated a memo and backdated it to May 28, 2025, when he actually created it on July 21, the same day that he sent the memo to Company personnel and to the press.
As you will see in the Fluet report coming up, Tony could not have even made the memo on May 28th due to him just entering the country at that time and having no access to a computer or the data required to create such a memo.
He also failed to realize that the company could pull the metadata from the memo and see that it was actually created on July 21, 2025 and modified the same date.
More lies and fraud from an obvious liar and fraud.
Next, I will share with you the report from Fluet, counsel to UG Solutions in this matter, about their findings from the internal investigation. This report highlights how, in their findings, "Tony is making good on threats to become UG Solutions' 'worst nightmare' if UG Solutions continues to refuse him a job."
The report goes on to show the positive messages that Tony sent to the team during his few weeks of employment, namely on may 31st praising the Company’s work “provid[ing] life saving Humanitarian Aid to 20.45% of the ENTIRE population of Gaza, delivering 716 TONS of aid into the Gaza Strip ... [and ] 26,040 family-meal boxes of Humanitarian Aid equaling 521 TONS” in a single day.
Does this seem like a person witnessing war crimes and the murder of civilians?
The report goes on to say, "But while Mr. Aguilar praised UG Solutions’ success, those within the Company expressed grave concerns regarding Mr. Aguilar’s substandard performance and repeated workplace conflicts. During the first two weeks of June, Mr. Aguilar repeatedly complained that he was asked to perform tasks that he assessed to be outside of his contractual obligations. In his role as JTOC Team Leader, he refused to
do work that was assigned to him or necessary to fulfill his duties."
The report then goes on to verify that Tony was fired for cause from his position on June 13, 2025, stating "UG Solutions leadership informed Mr. Aguilar that his contract had been terminated, and he was placed on suspended duty with full pay and retained accommodation. Leadership removed Mr. Aguilar from Gaza and allowed him a hotel room in Israel while the Company coordinated his movement back to the United States."
This is corroborated by the texts sent by Tony himself about him not wanting to be fired and wanting to continue working for UG Solutions.
The rest of the Fluet report is UG Solutions' response to the false allegations made by a person that we all know now is a serial liar.
Next, we will look at the unhinged email that Tony sent to UG Solutions leadership just a couple of days ago. These are the words of a severely unhinged individual desperately trying to salvage the disastrous situation that he created.
He starts off as you would expect a lying narcissist to start, by being his normal, narcissistic self, "Gentlemen, I watched the press conference, live, today. I am flattered! 14 and half minutes from GHF dedicated to just me? Pretty cool. Thank you for showing all the cards. The media and the press don't believe you, because they have the documents, the videos, the pictures and the testimony of OTHER former contractors. You think this is just me? Get serious."
Then he goes on to say, "I am a 25 year Army veteran. Ranger. Green Beret. West Point graduate. Commanded from the Platoon level to the Battalion level, deploying to combat at every level of command. Wounded in combat and a Purple Heart recipient. A Bronze Star for VALOR in combat. Combat Infantryman Badge. Look those up. Can't handle Gaza? Come on...that's your angle?"
Notice he conveniently left out the Silver Star award from this email that he supposedly had in an earlier text he sent.
Also, he did not deploy at his Company level command as he was at SWCS, which is a non-deployable unit. More lies.
Yes, he then added a picture of himself in a dress uniform, because that is what normal people do in an email. However, notice what is not on his uniform in this picture which he claimed to have in his text message: that's right, a Silver Star.
He continues to lie about being terminated, "2. I was NOT terminated. I resigned on 6/13/2024. Just because Dan Gil and "Taz" (reference above for "trustworthiness") didn't send it to UGS Corporate is not my problem. I did not work for "GHF". I did not work for "SRS". I worked for UGS as an independent contractor. Period. My termination letter you say is "forged" was a PDF. I made the original word.doc into a PDF recently in order to send it to the press. I have the original word doc. I have sent that to the press. This is the metadata. Dan Gil and Taz received it on the 13th. Ask them for it."
He's already proven he was terminated by his own text messages that we viewed earlier in the thread. He then screenshots some bogus metadata from his desktop and tries to pass it off as unique. Tony, if this was true, why did you send the text messages on the 13th and 14th admitting that you were fired?
Is this guy even competent enough to form a rational argument? No, no he is not.
He then switches focus to this child for some reason, trying to act like he all of the sudden is the most caring and truthful person alive. He's not.
In fact, in his role he was not supposed to be going into Gaza, he was supposed to be sitting in the JTOC doing his actual job. His absence from the JTOC put a strain on the teams in the field and created even more dismay and chaos in the operation, as will be covered shortly in the Sworn Statements given by numerous UGS contractors.
Now let's look at some of the sworn statements that GHF uploaded that directly contradict everything Tony has said. These were originally posted by @hpmcd1.
The first is from a former Force Recon Marine turned Navy SEAL. He says one line that I think hits home for describing who Tony is, "He created chaos in an environment which should be calm and controlled."
All in all, 9 Sworn Statements were written and signed off on under penalty of perjury by 9 independent contractors that worked directly with Tony, and they all said the same exact thing.
Tony was highly emotional, unprofessional, a substandard performer, arrogant, ignorant, and incompetent. You can read the rest of the Sworn Statements here. ghf.org/wp-content/upl…
If Tony was telling the truth, why doesn't anyone corroborate his story, and further, why doesn't he have any actual proof of anything he has claimed?
Once you look through all of the information, I think the obvious conclusion is that Tony Aguilar is severely troubled, narcissistic liar who will now stop at nothing to try and damage the reputation and mission of the company that fired him for cause.
I have FOIA'd his military records and will post the proof about his lies about his awards once I receive them. I have spoken to numerous General Officers and Sergeant Majors about Tony, and they have all come to the exact same conclusion that UGS, the GHF, and 9 independent contractors have: Tony is a highly unstable, incompetent narcissist that has lost his way and will say anything to try and rectify the tragedies he has created for himself.
Until then, spread this thread far and wide so that everyone knows that Lt. Col. (R) Anthony Aguilar is a liar and a fraud so that we can push a petition through group to have his Special Forces Tab removed and officially blacklist him from the entire regiment.
Call out those that deserve to be called out.
Question everything.
