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.

SFC Schmitz,

Military personnel are generally located in concentrated areas such as Fayetteville, NC (Bragg) or Kleen, TX (Hood). If you are in an area that does not have a major military presents besides recruiters or USRA/NG then it is pretty easy. With all the uniform changes the DoD does vets have a hard time knowing what the correct standard is for the wear and appearance of the uniform so they can bust these guys out.

well for one, he has purple heart on the top of his badges, he has 30 years in supposedly because of the sleeve chevrons. he has 10 of them on one sleeve and 8 on the other, and the strips mean three year increments. I actually forgot what the official name for those are! he has no unit or combat unit on the shoulder sleeve just to point out a few of the errors. he has on a white shirt when it should be light green.

okay, thank you! I know there was a lot of changes within the military not just with dress, but also weapons and such. I have no idea about Dress blues. I got out in 2000

needless to say, I do not miss long road marches or the two mile run, but the military taught me many things about character, and honned in many things that were rough around the edges when I first joined up.

according to the uniform he is airborne ranger with three slots on his expert markmenship badge, and an EIB pin. I am not sure what that wing like pin is. I am by no means a military know it all, but I have had cards give to me that showed the correct placement and measurements that I since have lost. I was always reading manuals because I was told that I should not be sitting around with idle hands when I could be training. I was blessed with having good commanders that looked after our morale as well. His philosophy was train hard/party hard. If I could have stayed physically fit, I would have retired after another 10 years, but I developed a disability and got out with a honorable discharge with citation. I worked hard for what I had as do most soldiers. The sad part about posers is that they have not earned the blood,sweat, and tears to understand what it means to be a military man of action or the glories and pain that goes with it.

I'll say this he's one of the better fakers that I have seen. SGM Davis approves this message.

Is it a Silver Starr or Bronze Star, SGM?

If he wants to be a poser so bad, I say send him on a 1 man mission to Syria...

ME COPE being a civilian,
NOW this issue of A**holes stealing Military Uniforms really pisses me off, especially this guy in BLUES uniform, he is not old enough to be CSM, if he is then he would know NO SUNGLASSES, he must have done his homework on where and how to wear the ribbons, his svc strips puts him 30 yrs in, he does not look like he is over 30 yrs old, , I hope he goes to FEDERAL prison

You know that there are a whole lot of "Fame Robbers" out there, and this nut job is at the top of the list. 10 service stripes, really dude. The stripes by themselves look older than this guy. As I always say send these losers to the brig and loose the key.
