If he ever gets to prison on that conviction he'll probably be the star of many shower parties with the Grizzly Twins. Wonder if he'll get a medal for that service...maybe with a cluster.

Most possers miss out on listing the Pathfinder Badge. I kinda like how it holds up the rows of ribbons. Well done!

Cool beard and 'Sole Patch'.

You'd think he'd have at least a Sapper Tab and President's Hundred...and of course a Ranger Tab, SF Tab and Honor Guard tab would complete the ensemble...he has everything else the PX sells...

Serious fashion statement! Love the whiskers.
Somebody should have told him The Deer Hunter wasn't a documentary.:rolleyes:

This idiot is a damn riot. Now, all joking aside I received a magazine from medalsofamerica. Hell, a DSC was $15 for the nice one.

Nice display cases.

lol at the goatee and the SAS badge.

What a loser. All he had to do was shave and remove some of the medals and he may have gotten away.

probably not. downgrading himself from Flag Officer status probably would've helped as well.

I'm not saying it would be morally right for him to play dress up as long as he did it with less medals and shaved, we all know it's wrong whether you wear one unearned decoration or a chest full of them.

However I was just commenting that his chances of being caught would've been much lower had his uniform not been so over the top.

CIA Badge, too:

ETA: It gets better:

After 20 years in the U.S. Army, I was forced to retire due to the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy that forbids gay men and women from serving openly in the US Military.

At the HRC (Human Rights Campaign) Equality Ball at the Mayflower Hotel, those of us who have been a vocal force against this damaging and unconstitutional policy are quite confident that our new Commander-in-Chief President Barack Obama will sign an Executive Order to abolish the “DADT” policy. Yes We Can!
Peace,

Michael Patrick McManus, Lieutenant Colonel, US Army, Retired

Ballduster McSoulpatch! Har

Apparently the only thing he's qualified to wear is the Rump Ranger tab.

Oops. Did I say that out loud?

Three years in the Army and the guy ETS'd as a Staff Private - no wonder he got out - the way he moved it would've taken him at least 75 years to make Second Lieutenant...and he would've had to have been another Methuselah to ever make GO.

Anybody call the Ringling Brothers to let them know we've located one of their missing clowns?

DADT discharge, most likely.

I would think impersonating a GO to be a Federal offense.

Not sure I would want a lawyer named Jimmy Fallon either.

The two all time favorite movies of a gay friend of my ex-wife are:

Top Gun with Tom Cruise and Philadelphia with Tom Hanks. What would have made this funnier would have been Navy Dress Whites with the medals.
