AverageNCO sends us a link to an article from WTXL<\/a> about Joe Edward Griffin who applied for a town manager job in White Springs, Florida and has been arrested for fraud because on the application he listed three Bronze Star Medals and a “Silver Medal”, whatever that is. Maybe he came in second place during the Vietnam War. So who won the Gold Medal for the war?<\/p>\n

“My wife and I sent in an application that had the false medals on it, I did not know they were false medals,” said Griffin. “They are saying that I could not have earned those medals in a year. Ask anyone, they will tell you Vietnam tours last a year.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

He’s right in that regard. One guy I was checking on (can’t remember his name now, forgive me) earned three Silver Stars in three months in Vietnam for three separate incidences. So yeah, the time period in Vietnam has nothing to do with someone being phony.<\/p>\n

By the way, the Navy says his only personal award was a letter of appreciation, so, you know, that’s as good as 3 BSMs and a “Silver Medal”.<\/p>\n

Funny how he says “My wife and I…” so eventually he’ll blame her for the claims on the application. No phony ever blamed his wife, have they?<\/p>\n
