An question about enlisted rank

There is an older gentleman at my gun club that I want to have thrown out of the club. At the range today he swept not one but two shooters in a 10 minute span. I didn't witness the first one and he claimed that it didn't happen but the second time I saw it and threw him off the line.

Something has to be done as he has been talked to repeatedly and nothing seems to get through to him. The problem is that the Board of the Club loves him, in large part, because he spent 30 years in the military and fought both Korea and Vietnam, and no one wants to disrespect a Vet, myself included. Having said that his stories seem to border on the absurd (read phony) and he has repeatedly said that he retired after 30 years as a Staff Sergeant. Is it possible to serve that long honorably (including two wars) and not advance any further? Something isn't right with this guy and I'd hate to see the board let him stay around if his service record isn't what he claims it to be.
