There's a guy I knew who dressed up like Napoleon and went around talking about waterloo all the time (he eventually committed suicide), I don't think anybody got mad about that because he was obviously mentally ill.

There's literally no end to this poo poo. I need a break. Stolen valor sucks, but you gotta make a distinction between the dude that's doing it for free hot dogs and the guy that legitimately thinks he fought in the First Moon War or whatever.

his nibs posted:wow.. I never new this was an actual thing That guy in the video was obviously stolen valor. What makes me nervous is the guys who go out looking for stolen valor so they can make a public scene and/or youtube video. There was some old marine who got dogpiled for being "stolen valor". And turns out he was legit all the way. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/checkpoint/wp/2015/06/05/the-problem-with-publicly-accusing-someone-of-stolen-valor-what-if-youre-wrong/ quote:On Memorial Day, Robert D.

Sundowner posted:are they actual military folk wearing their uniform improperly/at in appropriate times etc? That's what scares me about it. I've been in 20 freaking years, and in that time the uniforms have changed many times. I bet, right now, you could probably find something out of regulation on a lot of Soldiers just because the regulations and uniforms are changing so much. Also, you're allowed to wear your dress uniform to appropriate functions (banquets, balls, funerals, ceremonies, etc). And if you're retired you're authorized to wear your dress uniform to stuff until the day you die. So what I'm saying is that I'd be too scared of getting it wrong to go after someone for stolen valor. Unless it was just insane. And even then I'd probably just walk away because the dude would probably be insane.

Sundowner posted:what so these guys presumably buy these uniforms online or whatever and wear them for what? to get free poo poo and pretend to kids they're some kind of hero or are they actual military folk wearing their uniform improperly/at in appropriate times etc? Honestly not all of them are even after free poo poo. A lot of them just have legit personality disorders and do it because it's a way for them to feel special about themselves. It's kind of a natural reaction to the way we idolize the military in America. For a lot of guys it's the same as the dudes who wear Naruto headbands around their house and practice their katas or whatever - they just want to feel special. Of course the flip side of that is dudes liker Bernath who use it as a way to further their career or for monetary gain. I remember a couple years ago there was a dude who had set up a pretty legit company that offered military training and support services to civilians and military contractors who hired a bunch of actual ex-SF guys to run his training programs and basically banked the whole thing on the idea that he was a green beret, and it all collapsed when it turned out he wasn't. Don't remember the dude's name though.

I know a few dudes who don't wear their dress uniforms unless it's a military function. They absolutely won't wear it outside of that cause of assholes who either press them on their backgrounds or literally just ask them if they killed anyone.

The places I usually hit up to check for Stolen Valor posts usually don't post without either a photo that's so blatantly hosed up you can't help, but notice or if they've got a DD214 to verify it, but yeah, serious problem when legit guys are called out.

I'd be able to spot SV on any Canadian poser. You spend enough time in and you can spot even the smallest discrepencies. Usually you wouldn't actually come out and say "Yo, SV bitchass" until you've asked questions. By asking questions that anyone should be able to answer if they were in the military you can find out pretty quick. I also stopped wearing my uniform when I was still in due to one time at Walmart when some lady spit on me and called me a baby killer, before promptly walking into an automated sliding door and falling down.
