Sadly enough, this is one of those laws that are going to require the public to pursue to the point that investigations and prosecutions occurr for the violations. This is a law that is Veteran driven and is usually pursued by Veterans.

With that said, there are many patriotic Americans that are offended by those who pose and often are the reporters of those guilty of violating the SVA.

I have conducted one SVA investigation. It involved a non-veteran claiming service along with a claim of having been awarded the Medal of Honor. It was referred to me and co-investigated by the FBI -SRA who was a good friend of mine. He referred it to me because I was a Veteran and he felt I would want to be involved. It was the only one I have been involved with. I know there are more out there, but there isn't enough light on it as a crime, IMO. This site does a fantastic job at keeping the issue at the fore-front. Now, we have to make sure the claims are investigated and prosecuted. It's incumbent upon us to push the issue.
