Darryl Hunt, AKA 'admin', LeToured, Deadmeat etc.  has a habit of
telling 'war stories.'

The bad news (for him) is that he tries to tell these stories in
military newsgroups where he keeps running into people who were there
for real - and point out the inaccuracies of this stories.  (For
example: He claimed to have been on the plane that dropped the 101st
airborne into Grenada, but I participated in the Grenada invasion and
know for a fact that the 101st airborne was not there.)

His way of dealing with being caught is to assume that there is some
sort of vague conspiracy against him.

the '404th' line comes from the fact that in the old days before most
of the mission posters and trolls showed up the newsgroup
us.military.army was treated as if it were a virtual bar named: 'The
404 bar and grill.'
