I think the icing on the cake is the CIA patch, common on those who have done secret missions that can't be talked about even 20 years later, all awards are classified above Top Secret of course. Except for the giant CIA patch.

I told some cops to check into a guy wearing a Chief khaki that looked like a bag of A@@. He had a Specwar pin on along with three rows of ribbons (I have 3 rows and I was in for 5 years). Plus the chief looked out of shape and his ribbons were all jacked up. He had a bronze star, a navy cross, GWOT, GWOT E, Iraq liberation, a single good conduct (it is hard to make chief with only one good conduct), 2 sea service, and a couple of smaller ones. He was missing a NAM. I don't think I have met a chief without a single NAM.
It wouldn't be impossible for a US General to be awarded a CBE, although when bestowed on Americans it is an "Honorary" award, since awardees must swear allegiance to the Queen...which obviously no GI would do.
Another buffoon caught in the act. When does it end?

I love the second one. TWO Navy Crosses? I mean, come on. If you want to play dress-up, at least come up with a believeable story. Any living Marine that actually had 2 Navy Crosses would be legendary among veterans.
It's never enough for these people to be "just" an honorably discharged Marine/Sailor/etc. They all have to be Chesty Puller. The worst part is how these ass-clowns detract from the individuals who've actually earned their honors.

Wow. PFC to Full Bird in only 7 years. I feel way behind the power curve stuck at O2 at year 3.
I wonder how the Army just believed this guy. It's not as if they needed to do a background investigation. All they had to do was get a DD214 from him.
Yeah, I don't know who's responsible, but I'm sure someone in the admin channel will be punished. I can't really fathom how this happened, unless he forged documentation. The good news is, he was caught before he could do any serious harm.
So true, I had to provide a DD214 for my current civilian job to prove my military background. I'm sure the fallout won't stop with him.
On the POW Network site they have examples of faked ones, probably not too hard to do with today's computers.
All hell is breaking loose at Rucker trying to figure out when he was here, when he left, how he wasnt accounted for, etc. Nobodys heard fo the guy, or for that matter seen him. And we've got plenty of people who have been in the Battalion as Students for 2-3 years.
As for the proof for the Army, totally gonna have to go with his Guard Unit totally dropped the ball since they recruit on their own not from the normal Army recruiting office. Active duty side its really kinda depends on the MEPs station how hard they look. I got my PEBD adjusted but I still had to provide copies of orders to Active duty etc. It was like pulling F'ing teeth getting any kind of paperwork from the Marines though (needed medical etc for my RE waiver) and apparently thats not uncommon so I could see some E4 recruiter that hates dealing with another office ignoring protocal and just hand jamming in the paperwork.

I guess if you're gonna do something stupid, do it big- old boy claimed to be a former SEAL and to hold graduate degrees. Shame, shame.
