He was a marine who came out to march with the protesters.



I know no one cares any more, but I saw the conversation on the first page. I would be willing to bet the guy in the image is just using stolen valor to build some form of credibility. You can tell by his hosed up ribbons. The one on the bottom left is a Iraq campaign award, with what looks like 2 stars meaning he has been there 3 times. The ribbon to the bottom right is a sea service deployment, awarded for a deployment - there is no way you can have stars on your Iraq ribbon and not the same if not more on your sea service.

Not to mention that the that the if he was over in Iraq 3 times he would have a lot more ribbons then that, at least at the unit award level. Due to the various campaigns ending and new ones starting. They are what we dub "starter kits". Also I doubt any marine, epically in the infantry (combat action ribbon) would ever wear that uniform again outside of service.

Any ways just my two cents, and completely irrelevant to the case at large.
