This should never happen and if we catch a guy doing this should be punished severely

I'd say don't look for it. It's shitty some people try to be something they aren't, but if you're mistaken, it's a slap in the face to a fellow brother.

Personally, it's just every person seeking to be the next big thing on social media. It's all crap really. If they didn't serve fine let them do as they please if they did serve cool, more power to you. Each person is different. I'd rather just go on about my business and ignore the ignorance of one person then to make an was of myself in front of twenty!

Generally if you feel compelled to “challenge” another you need to be sure of your claim and not create more discredit on the services than a poser wearing ribbons out of order. Few “heroes” go around proclaiming their heroism, but those that do talk of their tactical experiences usually do so to help another vet to place their experiences in perspective. Most would rather talk of their drunken escapades in some Liberty port or r&r rotation. I think I’ve heard more “war stories” at PTA meetings than I have at the VFW but I generally just let the talkers talk.

I think when somebody is using the honor for their own benefit. They should be called out and shamed. To many have lost their life, lost limb, horribly scarred and lost their mind. For our country. For these people. They are lower than whale S***. Being nice.
