Hey everyone, the courts decision, only effects free speech, in other words "Verbal". Does not effect written or uniform violations. As pointed out to myself, US Code title 18, law before "Stolen Valor", both would apply. In short, impersonation of a veteral or officer by means other than the free speech (verbal content) which the courts in both Colorado and California cases. Colorado at least, has already or will file an appeal to the decision there based on my readings. But will only effect Free (Pure) speech aspect of the law.

In both cases the parties had made verbal misrepresentation of military (Non) achievement.
