This guy is a real piece of work.
A LTC, Engineer Branch and head-honcho for the War Training Center at Fort Benning, Georgia caught wearing decorations he did not earn. I would think his Sergeant Major or some po’d National Guardsman would have ferreted him out.
The unearned badges and medals.
- Ranger tab
- Sapper tab
- Combat Action Badge
- Army Commendation Metal with Valor
- Air Assault Wings*
- Expert Infantry Badge
- Presidential Unit Citation
This went on from a least 2004 or before. It amazes me that no one noticed. What a jerk.
Charges? Looks like just an Article 15 which is a non-judicial punishment in the United States Armed Forces. Non-judicial punishment permits commanders to administratively discipline troops without a court-martial. Punishment can range from reprimand to reduction in rank, correctional custody, loss of pay, extra duty, and/or restrictions. The receipt of non-judicial punishment does not constitute a criminal conviction (it is equivalent to a misdemeanor), but is often placed in the service record of the individual.
I would have him drawn and quartered but that’s just me.
*Dropped out of training twice.
