BF2S Forums Web Site Aims to Uncover Fakers in Fatigues

Is this a major problem?

I used to wear my dads sharpshooter pin around back in the day.. The iron cross that said he passed the rifle course, is that why they're talking about?

Yeah but unless they're bought, they just might be proud of their family who served.. Just saying?

I was in High School and to be honest it was a target on an Iron cross and I used to get asked all the time why I'd wear Nazi Medals.. Actually it was pretty cool cause I got to explain to them that it was a U.S. Army medal.

I also feel that it'd be better if they started a website against the "God Hates Queers" group.. Just saying

I understand how much medals and ribbons mean to military folk but do people really have nothing better to do than report to the police how people dress?

This isn't about kids wearing Daddy's ribbons to school.

Its about people who didn't serve at all wearing the uniform with ribbons and medals they didn't earn.

Its about military folk who served or are serving that are wearing ribbons and medals they didn't earn.


Silver Stars, Bronze Stars, Purple Hearts ect..

Serving military I could understand reporting them. As for a civilian in the middle of surburbia getting reported for wearing a medal or uniform seems sorta silly.

I'd be pretty pissed off if Jack McAssfuck was wearing a Purple Heart or The Medal of Honor in the middle of suburbia.  Same goes for wearing a Uniform.

Face it captain fass, the only reason you wore that shit is because you wanted to look like a hard ass. Don't bullshit around with honour and shit like that. Even if it was your relatives. Nobody does that shit. It's still bullshit to walk around wearing medals and shit that aren't yours.

You're sort of what the OP is talking about, but maybe not as bad, but still up there, IMO

Naa nothing hard about me, I was 6 foot and 125 in high school when I was rocking that shit.. Wasn't trying to pass it off as my own ever.. I thought it was awesome looking and pined it on my flight jacket, nothing more nothing less.

Imitating an officer is illegal as a civilian(I can see in cases where you're trying to pull shit) does that mean the paddy wagon is going to the next civil war enactment?

I know in things like Paintball, and lots of other things people dress up as officers of the military for fun..

Honestly rocking something and trying to pass it off as your own is totally different then wearing an honor a relative earned..

Lythberg: wouldn't that be up to the vet group or the media to vet (pardon the pun) out their guest?    7: I am sure it would piss you off, but would you waste your time reporting someone for a glorified dress code violation?

Yes.

Wearing the Medal of Honor is a federal crime.  Federal pound me in the ass prison.

If you're in the military and you are wearing ribbons/medals/shooting badges, you can enjoy a stay at the brig.




fuck I type so fast I misspell everything.

Proud Relatives
Reinactors
Actors in movies?

There is three. My cousin has a Medal of Honor from my uncle in WWII I don't know if he's ever worn it though

Thing is I think this web site is looking for people who try to pass themselves off as real soldiers / recipients. Not proud relatives who usually just pin it to an article of clothing or a backpack, not reenactors, and not actors in plays/movies.

Ok Dookie, That's bullshit then and I agree..

Just stating facts that the honors that are given to the men or women is also for their family's as well. Very many Next of Kin actually get awarded the medals for the soldier because the soldier died in combat..

Still think they should make a website of where the protesters for "god hates fags" groups and go there instead. I'd love to see those asshole get their comeupens.

I used to wear one of my dad's purple hearts around when I was playing army as a kid. There's a big difference between a kid who doesn't know any better and an adult imitator.
