Wow....That guy's career has really taken a nosedive since Passenger 57...
this happens fairly often believe it or not. I've seen more of it in louisiana than I ever saw in NC. Maybe its because when you're that close to a military base people just "know".
"Yeah I was in Iraq"
"What was your mos?"
"Umm...."
Well?
I was a Marine Sniper Jump Seal.
Heh. You don't say?!
Mad...you forgot to mention that he was a Recon Ranger on top of his Marine Sniper Jump Seal!
He also fought in World War II.Ah yes. and judging by his medals he was in vietnam, the gulf war, and Iraq twice.
pretty impressive for a 24 year old.
I was so proud when I graduated tech school at Ft Mcclellon. Couldnt wait to show of my uniform, well not really. I found out quick the us MP'S werent very well liked on post. I was happy with the MOS I chose but soon wished I had picked something more important. I was upset when they closed that post. I want to go back and look around. I hear you can still get on post. I have watched Youtube videos that showed the CTA where Senior Drill Sgt. Worked me out till I puked. I hope to God I never run accrossed one of the "POSERS". I dont know if I could contain myself.
So lets get the straight, he was an active member of the Marines, Army, and Navy all at once? We got a bad@$$ right here!
I don't get it..... A quick google search was all it took to make sure his uniform was in regs and he could have probably gotten away with it. With that cluster f**k he had on, he had to have known he was eventually going to be called out in it. He could always say that's his Stomp Team's uniform.
A civilian wearing them is not a criminal offense (though it should be!).

Wearing military decorations with the intention of obtaining money, property, or other tangible benefit from convincing someone that he or she rightfully did receive that award.
Uh...yea that's pretty much what I just said.
Tangible Benefits is clearly defined. There's no question on what it means
and the court isn't going to re-define the two terms.
If you wear the uniform, and declare that you earned the listed Medals
and receive so much a s Free Drink b/c of our false declaration
you violated the Stolen Valor Act.
If you wear it to a Halloween Party as a costume
you don't.
