I'm a retired GI. A couple of years ago when they passed some dumb law where every Vet with a disability is allowed to come on base and utilize the Commissary, Post Exchange, and MWR services, the number of folk wearing Special Forces Crap has increased a thousand fold. Whats worse is they even try to approach you to talk Bovine Scat.
I checked with vendors on 4 different bases and they said sales of SEAL, Special Forces, Pararescue, and Ranger chit went through the roof !
Retired guys like me don't even join American Legion or VFW because of all the one term wonder Puss nutted can't cut it kkkkuuunnt Posers !
Even had one brave soul at Audie Murphy VA hospital in a waiting room tell me he was a Recon Marine, SEAL, Delta, Ranger, and Airborne. I asked how long he was in and he told me three years. I called him an F-N liar and he made a mistake of lunging his slow ass toward me. I called my wife and told her I'm going back on base because I don't deserve better but I earned it !
The dang medal/decorations are a whole nother ball of chit, everyone seems to have a Bronze Star or higher. I say you better BEWARE of the soldier with the most "Humanitarian" medals. Thats what you get when its a non-sanctioned for war area.
Peace my Brothers !
