Several of you have contacted us about this woman whose pen name is “Prissy Holly” but whose real name is Captain Lyndsay Faith Lowery. She’s actually a Signal Corps officer in the 75th Training Command in Colorado. But, in her nightime job she’s “Prissy Holly” at Mad World News. She wrote this missive a few days ago;<\/p>\n

Folks got upset when she said that she had commanded infantry troops and they assumed that she was lying. You can see at Guardian of Valor<\/a> how these amateur valor hunters went into pretzel twists to make their case, even though Bulldog and I tried to warn them that there was nothing to prove that she was lying.<\/p>\n

I’ll admit that I was the first to check her out on AKO, it’s usually the first place I go to verify people who claim they’re in the Army, but unless the soldier fills out the portion of their profile about deployments, it won’t appear there. The absence of information is proof of nothing.<\/p>\n

The way I approach these stolen valor cases is that I assume they’re telling the truth until I find something that proves them wrong and I couldn’t find anything substantial in this case, so I passed on it. <\/p>\n

Bulldog got her DD214 and she did deploy to Iraq and she did do what she said she did;<\/p>\n

But, some people couldn’t let it go, and it looks like the “POG Boot F***s” Facebook page that led the charge against her is gone now. There can be no half-measures in the hunt for valor thieves. We take extra steps when they’re still in the service, like Captain Lowery, here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
