While we await the backlog of records requests from NPRC so Military Phonies can get back to giving us our favorite entertainment around these parts, we have to stick to news reports. This one comes in from Massachusetts. This here fella has earned a stolen valor charge by changing his discharge paperwork from a bad conduct discharge resulting from a court martial so he could score some of that sweet, sweet unsecured mortgage loan from the VA.<\/p>\n
The Sentinel and Enterprise reports<\/a>;<\/p>\n LEOMINSTER \u2014 A city man was summonsed to court on Monday on charges related to him allegedly forging military documents in an attempt to obtain a Veterans Administration home loan, according to police and court documents.<\/p>\n Police said that on July 29 an agent with the Department of Veterans Affairs met with a department officer about Anthony C. McCauliff, 32, of Franklin Street, allegedly forging his office military separation documents in attempt to secure a home loan, the reporting officer said.<\/p>\n The agent told the officer that McCauliff was originally separated from military service on April 2, 2009, however, he went online and changed the separate date to Nov. 27, 2016, which would have made him eligible for the loan.<\/p>\n On one of the separation documents when describing \u201ccharacter of service,\u201d McCauliff altered it from \u201cbad conduct\u201d to \u201chonorable\u201d and he altered another one of the documents as to the reason of his military separation from \u201ccourt martial\u201d to \u201ccompletion of required active service,\u201d the officer reported.<\/p>\n While the officer made contact with McCauliff in an attempt to speak to him about the circumstances, she wasn\u2019t able to have him come to the station for an interview and as a result filed charges of forgery of document, utter false writing, and stolen valor by fraudulently representing himself as a military service member or veteran, according to court documents.<\/p>\n McCauliff was not formally charged Monday after asking for a continuance until March 8, according to court documents.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n This doesn’t appear to be McCauliff’s first run-in with the law. He took off running from the cops last fall<\/a> because he had “several active warrants related to probation violations” the police reported at the time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
