His unit patch is an EOD brassard, his combat patch is a Special Forces patch with a Ranger tab and a Special Forces tab (no Airborne tab) over it. When the camera operator asks him for ID, the LT shows him a driver&#8217;s license.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6WHApREqchA\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>GoV says that the Army has no record of him. AKO lists 12 Ciprianis, none of them named Michael, none of them are Special Forces or Engineers.

According to the folks at <a href=\"http:\/\/guardianofvalor.com\/michael-cipriani-busted-at-baltimore-washington-airport-for-stolen-valor\/\">Guardian of Valor<\/a>, Michael Cipriani in the video was actually Kelsey Cipriani, his sister, who was making a movie using her brother&#8217;s driver license. I&#8217;m not sure that I believe that.
