Oh noes; Phony Veterans Of Foreign Wars Fight Back Against Military Bloggers
The Duffel Blog, that satire website, uncovers a satirical organization of military phonies who are organizing to come after us;
“Because of these milbloggers’ relentless assault on our First Amendment-protected right to lie about brief, unglamorous or nonexistent military service,” PVFW chairman Michael Spurwick told reporters, “several of our members have suffered irreparable damage to their reputations, and a few have even had their businesses and careers ruined, after being exposed as frauds. Something had to be done.”
Spurwick, a former Army sergeant, who was promoted to General before retiring as a Captain, has a long and impressive career of made-up military service.
“We lost a lot of good men out there,” Spurwick said. “I don’t really like to talk about it.”
There is an element of truth to this, of course. Some of our phonies are trying to organize, but they suck at everything, so we’re not worried. but read the rest of this excellent satire.

Loved that passage about how the poser jumped with the 173d ABN BDE at JUNCTION CITY in 1967 when he was 15 months old…LOL
Nice that he leads with Msgt. Soup Sandwich.
I think the pretenders and valor thieves ought to unionize. They may be able to join Local 12 (Villains, Thieves, and Scoundrel’s Union) but they’ll have to check with Boris Badenov on that. I,too, enjoyed Soup’s selection as poster (poser?) boy. Nicely done.
In response to the “Because of these milbloggers’ relentless assault on our First Amendment-protected right to lie…” comment
How about our First Amendment protected right to tell the truth and to expose those lies as expressed and confimed by SCOTUS in their decesion concerning the Stolen Valor Act?
-Ish
Soup remains our most famous poser – over 150,000 have seen him in the last year. Almost 10,000 people visited him yesterday for the first time.
Nothing like the smell of humor in the morning.

Someone owes me a new cup of coffee and wipes to clean my ket board!
#7, we should just petition TAH for government assistance for head turning classes. It might be cheaper in the long-run, because I did the same thing.
Love TDB.
“LANO (Low Altitude, No opening). LOL!! what did he do, jump off the porch?
