COB6 first wrote about Brian Culp<\/a> back in December 2008<\/a> when he was busted for Purple Heart license plates in Texas. He claimed that he had two Purple Hearts and a Bronze Star Medal from his service in Somalia. He went to jail for nine months and three years probation in Texas in 2008.<\/p>\n

In 2011<\/a>, he was busted again by his probation officer when he used a forged ID card to get on base at Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio. His probation was revoked and he went back to prison for a year.<\/p>\n

Last year<\/a>, game wardens busted him for hunting without a valid hunting license when they caught him hunting with a license meant to be issued to disabled veterans. He paid a $6,242.35 fine. <\/p>\n

Well, I figured that it was time to get his records, since we’d been depending on news reports. Turns out that Culp had been an infantryman, he’d earned the Combat Infantryman Badge during Desert Storm. He’d even completed the Ranger Indoctrination Program, but no Purple Hearts, no awards for participation in the Somalia Mission. It looks like his highest rank was Sergeant E-5 in eight years and four months of active service and two years of Texas National Guard time. It looks like he reenlisted and left the Infantry to join the Signal Corps after a break in service.<\/p>\n

I guess that wasn’t good enough for Brian, he really needed those Purple Heart license plates and the free hunting license. His Facebook page continues to have a lie about him being a staff sergeant (E-6) when according to his records, he was a sergeant (E-5);<\/p>\n
