Is this stolen valor?

[TokyoBayer]

Damn. The world is going crazy when Real Live Ex-Navy Seals[sup]TM[/sup] start lying about shit.

A former U.S. Navy SEAL commando, motivational speaker and frequent guest on national news shows is accused of lying to investigators about the circumstances of a shooting at an Ohio mall, police said Thursday.

OK, he’s not lying about his service record or medals, and mostly it’s nobodies who pretend to be decorated vets to get attention, but good god. So yes, I know it’s not stolen valor, more like shoplifted bravery? Or is this just “making up shit to become famous?” without an official title?

I breathlessly await your Cafe Society thread that bears the title “Is this Stolen Valor?”

I keed, I keed. Just thought it looked weird that your thread was suddenly in MPSIMS, and suddenly had zero responses.

I, too, thought it was the old thread.

I’m not sure valor can be “stolen”.

Ditto. Was confused by how few posts there were.

You write the book, I’ll start the thread.

I know it’s mundane and pointless and I wouldn’t have felt like I must share it, except because of that recent thread, I thought I’d give equal time to former military elite who make up shit.
