We are all WW2 history savvy and know how to verify what is what ..some more than others for sure.
We all respect and honor those who were there tremendously ..both because of what they did and how tough it was to do it.
Literally life and death day to day and a lot of great people did not make it.
That is why when someone decides to lie about 'being there' they come across as the lowest form of life on this planet.
Personally .. I feel there should be a federal court action with time in Leavenworth, minimum 20 years ..for impersonating, fabricating, or in any way trying to pass as a 'veteran' when there is no proof.
A guy can call Randolph and get a copy of his DD-214 for the askin ..it's not like it's unobtainable.
A federal investigator can do the same to prove-disprove a claim.
These liars need to be shut down hard .. period.
