More than two years ago, we wrote about Richard Hollingsworth<\/a> a valor thief at Pocatello, Idaho’s VFW Post 735<\/a>, who pinned a bunch of stuff on his skin tight uniform that he didn’t earn during his term of service in Vietnam;<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll forgive him wearing the Sergeant stripes. It\u2019s probably pretty tough in this day and age to find sew-on Spec 5 rank, maybe not, I don\u2019t know. But what I can\u2019t forgive is the Combat Infantry Badge, the Blue Infantry Cord an Army Commendation Medal that aren\u2019t in his records. There\u2019s also the Army Achievement Medal, Overseas Ribbon and the Army Service Ribbon none of which existed until about ten years after he left the service.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Apparently, valor theft doesn’t mean much in Idaho, because they made him the post commander and he’s still wearing his bogus bling;<\/p>\n

Some members of the post don’t like it, but apparently the majority are valor thief huggers.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
