More wasted time and negative results. Again, work as hard maintaining your equipment as you do stirring up trouble and picking on people then we have made progress.

Ok, where do I begin. The reporter said he was in the army from 2003-2004, so that's one year. That tells me he was chaptered or discharged for punitive reasons. You cannot enlist for just one year. I did not see his uniform in the video but it said the AD guys noted his rank was upside down. I am guessing this guy was a prior service, had issues, got discharged and still has issues. I don't know why he had on the uniform but it got out of hand probably for no good reason. It is best to leave situations like this alone or do your best to handle it discreetly. No good can come out of anything like this and it is not worth fighting over. Say your piece and walk away.

Reporter said he served from FEBRUARY 2003 to AUGUST 2004. That would be 18 months and not a year. Seeing as I do not know the man and I am just a lowly E-5, that tells me that a lot could have happened in that 18 MONTHS. He could have been arrested on many charges. He could have been injured. He could have became an conscientious objector. OIF started in March of 2003...he could have been wounded and received a TBI.

This is why you don't freaking confront anyone!!!!! Veterans need to stop this sh*t, quit going up and confronting Veterans. You Veterans did this to this man! Shame on You! The man clearly has some inner demons and this lot decided to bully and pick on him.... Prod long enough, don't be surprised when the Bull prods you!

SSG(P) Dan Keene - If you look at criteria on what it takes to be a Veteran, you can still be Active Duty and considered a Veteran... I was.
