With the recent amount of stolen valor it is hard to keep up with all the different threads being posted here on RallyPoint. From this point forward if you have a stolen valor question, comment, and or post, then add it here. The posts that currently exist will stay, as we don't want to lose the already existing discussion content. If you have started a stolen valor post prior to this and wish to have it merged to this one then feel free to let me know and I will merge that for you. The initial post will be gone but the discussion content will be merged to this posting.

For once I'm pleased to see the result of social media taking over our lives. This would hopefully deter future "SgtMajColPfc's" from disrespecting our branches. I imagine how proud we service members are of our branches. It would take all the bearing we've learned and more to not drop kick a phony. With the latest video it seems as if they're getting better with the quick responses. More exposure and heavier punishment and hopefully it'll beat this foolery to the point of extinction.

I like the fact people are making the videos. It may discourage some future posers if they think their dishonorable act goes viral. I'm sure the fake Ranger at the mall is catching a lot of crap.

He'd make a great Christmas tree. I wonder if it plugs in or runs on batteries.

Does This Wannabe even look like he's completed 30 years of service? And 7 tours of combat? I don't think so. One thing's for Sure this joker clearly didn't do his homework well enough, my old chain O' Command would have had a Field day with this P.O.S.

I guess what bothers me the most is... It really wasn't THAT difficult to raise your right hand. If you really want to wear that uniform, earn it. Yes, we put up with a lot of bullshit, yes we put our lives on the line and relationships on hold. But the truth is, 99.9% of us are stronger now than when we nervously raise that right hand upon entrance. We were faced with challenges we didn't even know existed and if we survived, we could draw on that experience for the rest of our lives. So if these guys REALLY have the desire to join our little elite group, then just do it.

His tie is garbage. His coat fits like crap. I don’t' know if the picture is just fuzzy, but I don't see blue discs around his cross rifles. Plus if you’re so hard up for chest candy that you stack your expert badge, your sad. Go get that grenade award there SGM!

This jackass along with the rest of his ilk will continue to use the uniform to fulfill whatever wishful flight of fancy they have and/or perpetrate a scam. Until we (the United States) passes a legally enforceable code that attaches serious criminal and civil penalties to this type of behavior (wearing of a DoD uniform, awards, regalia, and/or accoutrements) without official orders for each and every thing on the uniform they will continue with their behavior. What I find most reprehensible about convict Rahm's behavior is the audacity to engage a Gold Star mother. I personally and professionally hope she sues the living daylights out of him in civil court for mental and emotional distress.
On a lighter note, it's not like AR 670-1 is not available in a convenient, easily downloadable pdf. Further, both Apple and Android have multiple apps that allow you to properly build your rack. If you are going to be a jackass at least take the time to do it correctly.... Shhh say my peers, it will make them harder to spot LOL....
