So, I just watched one misguided alleged veteran from the 101st, who upon weighing roughly 300 pounds shout to us that we didn't "get it".

Not all veterans really are.

I once met a guy who claimed to have been an 'Army Lance Corporal' who served in Desert Storm. He apparently thought it was a cool sounding rank but didn't even know that it's a Marine Corps rank and isn't used by the Army.

BTW, I've also met a 'Marine Corps pilot' who flew the F-17 fighter. (There's never been an F-17, at least not in any of the U.S service branches.)

Kind of like Chief Petty Major in the Air Force?

'Army Lance Corporal'

That's funny. Usually the posers make themselves a commissioned officer and a graduate of one of the service academies.
