Folks tell us that he showed up in an Honor Guard uniform and after he took stock of who was around, at the last minute before the parade began, he changed into his Army jacket with the same old bullshit badges that he didn&#8217;t earn. Here&#8217;s the link to the photo above at the <a href=\"https:\/\/pocatelloparade.org\/all-photos\/\">Pocatello parade website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>He&#8217;s not Post Commander, but he&#8217;s still an officer in the post. Obviously, the Pocatello post doesn&#8217;t have much respect for the uniform if they don&#8217;t take this thief seriously.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?attachment_id=66720\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-66720\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Hollingsworth-VFW-Post-735-500x321.jpg\" alt=\"Hollingsworth VFW Post 735\" width=\"500\" height=\"321\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-66720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Hollingsworth-VFW-Post-735-500x321.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Hollingsworth-VFW-Post-735-300x193.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Hollingsworth-VFW-Post-735.jpg 735w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Earlier this year, we wrote about Richard Hollingsworth, a former VFW Post commander at the Pocatello, &hellip; <a title=\"Richard Hollingsworth back at pretending\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=66718\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Richard Hollingsworth back at pretending<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":64064,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30,391],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-66718","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-phony-soldiers","category-valorvultures"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/66718","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=66718"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/66718\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/64064"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=66718"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=66718"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=66718"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
