Someone sent us a link to our friends at Wounded Times’<\/a> Kathie Costos who uncovered this fellow, Eustace Horne, who was creating the National Vietnam War Museum in Orlando, Florida. The local articles<\/a> about him have said he served three tours of Vietnam and that he’s one of the “most decorated” veterans in Florida. <\/p>\n

Horne served three tours of duty in Vietnam. He was awarded the Silver Star, three Bronze Stars with Valor, Purple Hearts and more. But while the museum is a place filled with stories, his is not one the former Green Beret wished to share.<\/p>\n

“It’s something that’s personal for me, and I don’t want to talk about it. It’s just between me and my God,” said Horne.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Well, God isn’t going to like that Horne has been lying to Him in their conversations. Horne left the Army in 1974 as a staff sergeant, although he’s been claiming to be a major. He had one tour of Vietnam as a dump truck driver and a battalion communications sergeant in the 31st Engineer Battalion.<\/p>\n

He already had an impressive career, he earned a Bronze Star Medal with a “V” device for valor, and Purple Heart and an ARCOM for his service in Vietnam, I guess he figured that wasn’t enough;<\/p>\n

Here’s his FOIA;<\/p>\n
