The folks at Military Phony<\/a> send us their work on this Robert Allen Glaub<\/a> fella.\u00a0 Robert is 56 years old as of Oct 2019 and lives in Torrington, Wyoming.\u00a0 He often goes by “Rob” as well as his nickname “Goosinator.”\u00a0 Sometimes he lists his last name as “Glaub-Leonello.”<\/p>\n

Glaub posted photos of himself in his U.S. Army finest, which includes the rank of SSG (E-6), hashmark on his sleeves indicating 15 years of service, a U.S. Army Parachutist Badge, and medals that include the Silver Star, the Purple Heart and a Bronze Star.\u00a0 There may be a Distinguished Flying Cross but it was difficult to tell from the photo.<\/p>\n

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

Here is the best guess at the medals summary with the enlarged photo of his chest candy for comparison.<\/p>\n

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

Because he only wears the jacket, some thought was given to him perhaps doing some spring cleaning and came across his father’s jacket and tried it on, but the photo is clearly labeled as “U.S. ARMY – I SERVED SOLDIER FOR LIFE” so there is not too much wiggle room.<\/p>\n

His father died in 1998 and he did serve in both Korea and Vietnam according to his obituary.<\/p>\n

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

However, there is no “Glaub” listed on any Silver Star resource out there.<\/p>\n

Further searching revealed another article that established Robert as being in the Air National Guard.<\/p>\n

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

And in fact, the National Personnel Records Center (NPRC) confirmed service in the Air Force\/Air National Guard by Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) results.<\/p>\n

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

So, it looks like Glaub has some ‘splainin’ to do.\u00a0 Even if he was playing dress-up with someone else’s uniform, most would simply try it on out of curiosity, look in the mirror to see how it fits, remove it and move on with their life.<\/p>\n

Who takes a picture, labels it and posts it to the internet?\u00a0 The “Goosinator” that’s who.<\/p>\n

The Silver Star and the Purple Heart could prove to be problematic for Glaub since it may put him in direct conflict with Stolen Valor laws.<\/p>\n
