Military.com just came out with an article titled:\u00a0 “Steve Martin’s ‘Stolen Valor’ in ‘Dirty Rotten Scoundrels<\/a>‘”<\/strong><\/p>\n

The movie just got remastered and Military.com makes the point<\/p>\n

“Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” remains a hilarious classic and would be even more fun to watch with anyone who’s on the hunt to fuel their Stolen Valor Outrage.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There has always been some debate and misconception about the wearing of medals and their authentic display in movies and television.\u00a0 Rumor has it that they must be “jacked-up” and worn incorrectly or it is Stolen Valor.<\/p>\n

Case in point – in the series “Alpha House<\/a>” with John Goodman, a soldier was to be awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor (CMoH).\u00a0 \u00a0Well, apparently they couldn’t get a real CMoH so they substituted a baby blue one.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In a later scene, this same soldier is seen without the CMoH but he has a Combat Action Ribbon (CAR) which is usually reserved for Navy and Marine Corps vs. Army.\u00a0 I’m sure there may be other inconsistencies.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Always fun to observe this – drives wives crazy and does take away from the enjoyment of the show.<\/p>\n

In any case, “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels<\/a>” is a comedic classic and worth your time to see it if you haven’t.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
