I think I speak for all those with dozens of Purple Hearts, handfuls of Medals of Honor, and an assortment of Distinguished Service Crosses, that this ruling was only fair.
My only regret is that it was not extended to those of us who have been awarded a Nobel Prizes, Olympic medals, and Pulitzers. My recent confirmation to the Supreme Court should, however, allow me a chance to correct that, although my ongoing duties with Seal Team Six may create some scheduling problems. As a backup, the Pope’s approval for my beatification last year may also give me alternative channels to get things done.
Donations are always welcome.
The best solution to this is jury nullification.
That is, if a real US military veteran or active duty meets a military fake, and proceed to beat them to within an inch of their life, then are arrested and brought to trial for assault and battery, it is up to a jury of their peers to, without comment, acquit them of all charges.
And after a judgement of acquittal has been rendered, the jurors may feel free, if so inclined, to offer their gratitude to the real veteran or real active duty Soldier, Sailor, Airman or Marine, for their honorable service to our country.
Good. Now I can be a Seal who took out BinLaden like Dear Reader.
OK! I earned 4 Congressional Medals of Honor, 28 Purple Hearts and 1 FUSCOTUS.

You can lie about having served in the military, wear medals you have not earned, and burn our nations standard. Is nothing beyond the pale?
But God forbid you lie to a federal agent...that’s a crime.
