Married guys pretending to be single are pretty low themselves. I mean, if they're willing to cheat on/leave thier wife for you, they'll probably cheat on/leave you too!!!


Agreed, but trying to fake being a vet, well, thats unspeakable.
 
I agree. As an Army guy myself, I'd probably beat the living schtuff out of someone pretending to be a vet. Especially the one DMP encountered. I'd pull him off to the side, and say, "Thank you for serving our country, let me buy you a beer!" On the way there, I'd kick his silly little butt (insert other word if you wish) and leave him on the side of the road with the words "I'm NOT a Veteran!" written in permanent marker across his forehead! Either that, or get him drunk and take him to a tattoo parlor to have those words permenantly tattooed accross his chest (backwards so he can read it every time he looks in the mirror)!

I'd announce it at the reception...more damage that just one person could do...
 
As fitting or well deserved it would have been, I don't like the dry cleaning bill that would be incurred with that scenario. But, then again taking him to the local VFW and announcing it there would have been ideal.

Haha, your correct. My father has this theory that the old guys should go over and fight instead of the young ones (I believe stemming from a email)...but the same would be applicable to this situation. I can't even imagine the damage done at the local VFW...Would almost make me feel bad for him...
