That’s just sad. I’m guessing that young man has some mental issues or is autistic.
We used to call people like that punk pictured above “PX Rangers”, the guys who would go to the PX, buy badges, tabs and ribbons and add them to their uniform. An Air Force E-7 with three CIBs? C’mon!
There was a young guy (19 y.o.) in my basic training company who decided to promote himself to Command Sergeant Major and added all manor of ribbons and badges to his class A uniform immediately after graduation from basic. He didn’t even make it out of the airport before he was apprehended by MPs, put in the stockade and court-martialed. He got time in Leavenworth, which would make a good home for a POS like Blumenthal.
