He's not old enough to be a Sargent Major of anything.
Plus every Sargent Major I've ever known was a crusty old curmudgeon who would rip anybody's head off including Marines.

I used to work behind the gun counter at a small Long Island gun store with a Marine, and we would often get the fakes coming in to tell us about their extensive military careers in special forces and whatnot. Bill would stay back in the office and listen for a few minutes (giving the guy enough rope to hang himself by), and then he'd come out and start questioning all the details till the guy's story fell apart and he left in disgrace. It was pretty entertaining.

Ya I've noticed that just about every politician now is a retired Navy SEAL. I figure the SEAL contingent must be a 100 times bigger than the whole Navy put together.

Amazing ain't it? You can't plunk yourself down on a barstool anywhere without being between a Seal and a Ranger - unless one of them is an astronaut.

Nope, the court ruled that the "Stolen Valor" law infringed on free speech. Lies are legal again.

Not to turn this into another "cop" thread but I find it interesting that pretending to be a member of the military is OK legally but you would find yourself in some hot water by impersonating a police officer.
I'm becoming more tolerant of intolerant people.

I think you get arrested for impersonating an attorney and a doctor, as well. FWIW
