So I saw my first military poser today at Wal-Mart of all places. Had Army ACUs, popped collar, what looked like a white turtleneck and Doc Marten's boots, patrol cap on indoors, no name tapes anywhere, Marine Corps Globe-and-Anchor on his pc, no unit patches and an American flag patch with no stars. I asked him what unit he was in, he responded with being an E-7 petty officer in the Navy.

I see lots of people on highway ramps holding up signs claiming to be veterans ,I know this discussion can go sideways and it has in the past , I told one person that the majority of Veterans would be to proud to beg for money let alone wear a uniform doing it , this woman told me I didn't know what I was talking about ,that's when I informed her I was homeless when I first got out and never begged for a dollar , sorry if I think there is something that makes me feel empty about begging .

Just gotta point this out cause in some of the comments, people seem to disagree on the definition of stolen valor.
“Stolen Valor” is a term applied to the phenomenon of people falsely claiming military awards or badges they did not earn, service they did not perform, Prisoner of War experiences that never happened, and other tales of military derring-do that exist only in their minds.
Since some of you obviously don't google, here ya go. Your welcome.

Unfortunately there has been many who dare posse for no other reason but lack of identity and character for those individuals who do such things are very ignorant and have no self esteem nor respect for those who serve in our great military
