From KOMO<\/a> comes the story of Army Specialist Jordan Olson who dressed to impress when he stepped off the plane, back from a deployment to Afghanistan, unfortunately, he hadn’t earned everything on his uniform;<\/p>\n

When he returned home to Wisconsin, he got what every soldier expects – a family welcome – plus a little bit more that he did not expect.<\/p>\n

There was a military honor guard. And that’s not all – the local newspaper was there, too – along with representatives from the Veterans of Foreign Wars and the American Legion.<\/p>\n

“It was supposed to be my family there,” says Olson. “I didn’t know the news was going to be there.”<\/p>\n

If he had known, he might not have worn what he was wearing – a sergeant’s stripes and a parachutist’s badge. And he might have canned that fake limp.<\/p>\n

You see he wasn’t wounded in Afghanistan. He isn’t a sergeant, and he never went to jump school.<\/p>\n

And he may be in trouble.<\/p>\n

Major Mike Garcia at Joint Base Lewis McChord says, “I have no explanation … nor can I explain the rank and patches, badges he is wearing.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

He’s also wearing an 82d Airborne Division combat patch and a Combat Action Badge;<\/p>\n

I’m thinking that he didn’t earn the CAB, either, because he’s wearing it wrong. And the young lady in the picture at the top of this post? That’s his fiance…the problem with that is he has a wife at Fort Lewis waiting for him to come home. Fort Lewis isn’t going to be a happy place for the specialist when he gets there, I’m guessing. <\/p>\n
