I never got into this kind of trouble whenever I impersonated an Army officer. Everyone would wave and thank me for my service by patting me on the back. It was wonderful. After I turned eight, I decided to be a Fireman instead
how dare you accuse him of stolen valor, back in 2010 I served with the United States 82nd Xbox live division, both the 82nd and the Aussie division were tasked with forcing the Russians out of Saudi Arabia as part of Operation Firestorm! we were both rewarded the 3rd Battlefield medal of bravery by GEN.

Commonly known as 'can't see me suits' but since they are now made in China, everyone can see them. I thought his beret looked odd and if was in the Navy and joined Commando selection and failed he'd go back to the Navy. By saying he went to Kapooka tells me he thinks he's a regular and Commandos are reservists. SAS are regulars. "I pulled this out of the cupboard this morning" What? Does he think his flag patch jumps from shoulder to shoulder during the night and they all play hooky in the cupboard?
+Jacob Mault It's not the same in Aus, you are given a number after enlisting. It's actually called a PmKeys number now, not a service number, though people who enlisted prior to Pmkeys would also have a service number. If this member was still serving but discharging he would still have his Army photo ID with PmKeys number on it until the last time he drives out the barracks gate. Being in uniform with no ID is an immediate give away and (maybe?) an offense under the DFDA.

1. "Navy Clearance Diver" "Commando" - they NEVER say "I was just a grunt with a pack and an SLR trudging through the desert mate" 2. "Service number?" trips them up every time.

Imagine working on something for years hard work you've lost many friends in the process of getting it done and you see someone holding a fake replica claiming they did the work the lost their friends they did all the shit you did when they didn't do you know how infuriating that would be I would gladly watch a marine scream at a phony if it meant he would never falsely wear the uniform again

It is a semi-circular badge with a crown in the middle on a patch which is oval in shape and referred to as a "biscuit" shape. And yes, it should be on the left shoulder not the right

And we face, drug cartels, mafias, black market arms dealers, and we are home to one of the most violent gangs in the world, the MS13. And we should just calmly talk them into submission? Please. Hell, I don't think our police have enough APC's with how many gangs are armed with stolen military surplus. The MS13 kills soldiers in El Salvador and steals M16's and hand grenades and brings them back to the U.S. And they have about 30,000 active members. Do you realize how big that is? That's comparable to 3 military divisions.

True Story-I would like to thank this channel for pointing me in the right direction. I had a very abusive stepfather who claimed he was a POW in WW2. I never believed him as when he got drunk he would tell conflicting stories. I was watching one of your videos & i stumbled upon a website that outed people who were stealing soldiers identitys. Through speaking with a researcher from this website he found the grave site of the real soldier who passed away in 2017. I checked the service record number & my stepfather was using the same record number. He had stolen this soldiers identity from a very young age. My stepfather had never been in the army. Every ANZAC day i had to watch him march down the streets of Sydney with all these medals that the real soldier had earned or most likely purchased from a collector. The surviving members of the unit had either 2 or 3 medals. My stepfather had 19!!!! I have contacted the Police & they are looking at charging him with various counts of Fraud,stolen identity & many various charges. One of his biggest mistakes was he wrote a book telling his BS stories of being a POW & being a mastermind of attempted escape of attempts. My goal is to have the appropiate medals returned to his family. I have always believed in Karma & hopefully he will spend the rest of his life in a prison Infirmary. "If you tell the truth it becomes part of your past. If you tell a lie it becomes part of your future,"
@@Dang00TheAlien Yes Dan, He has been charged with 34 counts of Fraud, Stolen Identity, Tax Evasion, Welfare Fraud & obtaining financial gain by deception in making proceeds from his book of lies he had printed. Heis looking at between 8-12 years in Prison. he will die in prison. It took a lot of investigation but here is the backstory. He did sign up for the Infantry when the ship came to take the troops to Cairo, Egypt he ran to the hills rather than be a man & fight for his country. Until the 1973 under the Department of Defence Act it says "No soldier will be executed except for 4 breaches. 1) Dereliction of Duty, 2) Runnibg away & fighting for the enemy , 3) Espionage &4) Going absent without leave. Knowing full well he was facing a death sentence he needed to steal someones identity. He chose the identity of a actual soldier, used his,name, date of birth, service number , everything. He literally became a double of this person & since 1945 he would tell all his fake stories to his friends or anybody who would listen to him. He became a Paedophile. Because of the shame of being a coward & therefore not feeling like a true man he would rape young boys between 4-12. This is how he would reclaim his power by raping little innocent, defenceless children. I pray that there is a heaven & hell as i really hope he suffers in the after life but i have been assured that he will suffer in Prison as in Australia we all know what happens to Pardpophiles in prion. Not even gangs in prison will offer them protections. It's being a long journey but at last he will pay the price he deserves. All his medals in his posession have being seized & the appropiate medals sent to the real soldiers surviving family. Hope he rots in hell for eternity.
My grandad could still rattle off his number on his deathbed. He barely had the strength to mumble and didn't know where he was. But he could still recite his service number. You just dont forget that shit!
I left 2006 or 8 can't remember but service number is 25191079 2nd battalion royal Anglian regiment you never forget your number ha ha you say it every day
@The bearded guy Totally agree. I was in the Army Reserves for a few years from when I was 18. I'm over 55 now, and I still remember my old service number. Hate these pricks.
@ work, we had a guy that lied about his military service. LOL. Some guys that actually served started to get suspicious of him. Certain things he claimed that they said were not accurate. He had dog tags. He has a bag that he said was military issue. The army guys said that he bought that at a surplus store. Once he claimed he had to get some time off for training or something. The boss received an email for a sargent at a gmail account. LOL. With that said, why would he answer these questions. I would tell him to f off. I have places to go. LOL.

In Slovenia it is legal to wear our army's uniform you just have to remove the banner, nametag and decorations, just plain uniform. I don't know what the fine is, but if I would prove someone impersonating, I would report him and whatever happens happens. Because this is fucked up and dishonorable and these assholes deserve to stand infront of firing squad or if you want more "humane" execution(firing squad is the most humane in my opinion), electric chair. And not ten years later, they should be shocked right away. And with dry sponge(Green Mile). I would realy struggle not to bust their teeth in these situations. I have too much dignity and respect for serviceman, police(I don't like having police around me at any time, even if it is just my neighbour son and in civil, just asking me to help him with something, I just don't like them) and ambulance to do such thing. But I am volunteer firefighter and so is half of my family and hopefuly I will also serve the army next year. I was in volunteer service, but I fucked up after that. I miss those three months of service, it was awesome.
He isn't a fake. I'm a General Sergeant Private Major Colonel Brigadier Field Marshal Corporal Warrant Officer Class 1 in the 21947th RAR Recon Armoured Infantry Airborne Sniper Regiment.

His names brent McKean went through basic with him he hurt his back like 2 weeks in. He fooled us all that he was a former clearance diver( kind of like a shittier version of your guys navy seals) and being new recruits we didn't know any better. He didn't even make it a few weeks into our basic training
What do you mean mate? He hurt his back like a few weeks in so he got moved to the rehab platoons i never seen him again after that apparently he got medically discharged. Didn't even graduate from kapooka ( basic)

Someone's reaction when accused of impersonating a soldier is a dead give away. Imagine the reaction you would get if you told a serving soldier you thought he was a fake. You wouldn't get any stuttering or excuses ill tell you that.
simon Behrakis It's true, if someone accused me, id flash my cac and laugh at the, then walk away. If I was in the mood, I might play along for a bit, but I sure as hell wouldn't be nervous. There is nothing to be nervous about if you served.

Imagine working on something for years hard work you've lost many friends in the process of getting it done and you see someone holding a fake replica claiming they did the work the lost their friends they did all the shit you did when they didn't do you know how infuriating that would be I would gladly watch a marine scream at a phony if it meant he would never falsely wear the uniform again
I'd be calm like this no matter what. Yelling "STOLEN VALOUR, YOU ****** ***** ***** ****** *** SHEKELS *****" won't do crap.

You know you fucked up when you are wearing the flag on the wrong shoulder.
***** Shoulder.
+iFritz "Sir, thats a German flag and we're Australian..."
+Scott Amon I think actually its not the flag, its the Australian Army insignia of the rising sun, or "sun never setting on the British Empire" if you want the 1914 meaning. It is a semi-circular badge with a crown in the middle on a patch which is oval in shape and referred to as a "biscuit" shape. And yes, it should be on the left shoulder not the right
Doesnt take 10 seconds to google an image of a soldier from your country.... learn a few tips on where patches go.

Exactly what I thought. But someone who would pull this shit isn't obviously to bright.
My thoughts exactly. Laughed my arse off when I read your comment
Still impersonation of a soldier. He also bought a coffee there. Likley using a veterans discount.

Every Australian cop speaks exactly the same! They must teach them that in the academy
the assert dominance voice but without shooting people or yelling all the time like americans.

@@willm687 Yet the funny part is us Americans face a significantly higher threat that you Aussies do. You face what?...a pocket knife? Maybe a punk kid with a paint can? And we face, drug cartels, mafias, black market arms dealers, and we are home to one of the most violent gangs in the world, the MS13. And we should just calmly talk them into submission? Please. Hell, I don't think our police have enough APC's with how many gangs are armed with stolen military surplus. The MS13 kills soldiers in El Salvador and steals M16's and hand grenades and brings them back to the U.S. And they have about 30,000 active members. Do you realize how big that is? That's comparable to 3 military divisions.

True Story-I would like to thank this channel for pointing me in the right direction. I had a very abusive stepfather who claimed he was a POW in WW2. I never believed him as when he got drunk he would tell conflicting stories. I was watching one of your videos & i stumbled upon a website that outed people who were stealing soldiers identitys. Through speaking with a researcher from this website he found the grave site of the real soldier who passed away in 2017. I checked the service record number & my stepfather was using the same record number. He had stolen this soldiers identity from a very young age. My stepfather had never been in the army. Every ANZAC day i had to watch him march down the streets of Sydney with all these medals that the real soldier had earned or most likely purchased from a collector. The surviving members of the unit had either 2 or 3 medals. My stepfather had 19!!!!
I have contacted the Police & they are looking at charging him with various counts of Fraud,stolen identity & many various charges. One of his biggest mistakes was he wrote a book telling his BS stories of being a POW & being a mastermind of attempted escape of attempts. My goal is to have the appropiate medals returned to his family. I have always believed in Karma & hopefully he will spend the rest of his life in a prison Infirmary.
"If you tell the truth it becomes part of your past. If you tell a lie it becomes part of your future,"

Danny r/thisisntasubredditbutwowthatwasdeep
@@Dang00TheAlien Yes Dan, He has been charged with 34 counts of Fraud, Stolen Identity, Tax Evasion, Welfare Fraud & obtaining financial gain by deception in making proceeds from his book of lies he had printed. Heis looking at between 8-12 years in Prison. he will die in prison. It took a lot of investigation but here is the backstory. He did sign up for the Infantry when the ship came to take the troops to Cairo, Egypt he ran to the hills rather than be a man & fight for his country. Until the 1973 under the Department of Defence Act it says "No soldier will be executed except for 4 breaches. 1) Dereliction of Duty, 2) Runnibg away & fighting for the enemy , 3) Espionage &4) Going absent without leave. Knowing full well he was facing a death sentence he needed to steal someones identity. He chose the identity of a actual soldier, used his,name, date of birth, service number , everything. He literally became a double of this person & since 1945 he would tell all his fake stories to his friends or anybody who would listen to him. He became a Paedophile. Because of the shame of being a coward & therefore not feeling like a true man he would rape young boys between 4-12. This is how he would reclaim his power by raping little innocent, defenceless children. I pray that there is a heaven & hell as i really hope he suffers in the after life but i have been assured that he will suffer in Prison as in Australia we all know what happens to Pardpophiles in prion. Not even gangs in prison will offer them protections. It's being a long journey but at last he will pay the price he deserves. All his medals in his posession have being seized & the appropiate medals sent to the real soldiers surviving family. Hope he rots in hell for eternity.
Who are the police offers talking to? *I can't see anyone*
Old camo joke ha ha.. got me tho

its funny I haven't been in the army for over 25 years and I can still remember my service number without thinking about it

@The bearded guy Totally agree. I was in the Army Reserves for a few years from when I was 18. I'm over 55 now, and I still remember my old service number. Hate these pricks.

Ain't that some shite! The guy was just "dressed to impress" then, what an idiot and good thing the cop noticed his mistakes.
@ work, we had a guy that lied about his military service. LOL. Some guys that actually served started to get suspicious of him. Certain things he claimed that they said were not accurate. He had dog tags. He has a bag that he said was military issue. The army guys said that he bought that at a surplus store. Once he claimed he had to get some time off for training or something. The boss received an email for a sargent at a gmail account. LOL.
With that said, why would he answer these questions. I would tell him to f off. I have places to go. LOL.

In Slovenia it is legal to wear our army's uniform you just have to remove the banner, nametag and decorations, just plain uniform.
I don't know what the fine is, but if I would prove someone impersonating, I would report him and whatever happens happens. Because this is fucked up and dishonorable and these assholes deserve to stand infront of firing squad or if you want more "humane" execution(firing squad is the most humane in my opinion), electric chair. And not ten years later, they should be shocked right away. And with dry sponge(Green Mile). I would realy struggle not to bust their teeth in these situations. I have too much dignity and respect for serviceman, police(I don't like having police around me at any time, even if it is just my neighbour son and in civil, just asking me to help him with something, I just don't like them) and ambulance to do such thing. But I am volunteer firefighter and so is half of my family and hopefuly I will also serve the army next year. I was in volunteer service, but I fucked up after that. I miss those three months of service, it was awesome.
