And all of it was out of order.<\/p>\n<p>All they had was a name and a place. I checked AKO and found the dude. I knew that because he was still on active duty, we wouldn&#8217;t be able to get his records, and of course, AKO doesn&#8217;t list awards, so we really couldn&#8217;t prove conclusively that he was faking. So I did the next best thing; AKO lists supervisors. So I emailed the picture to his squad leader.<\/p>\n<p>His squad leader just wrote us back today to tell us that faker dude is getting an Article 15 (that&#8217;s Captain&#8217;s Mast to our more buoyant brethren) for engaging in douchery. His squad leader also thanked us for coming to him first.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d tell you his name and post the picture, but I&#8217;ll bet explaining the picture to his NCO chain of support was more painful than anything we could ever do to him. <\/p>\n<p>The story was just too good to keep to myself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OK, here&#8217;s the photo.
