Speaking of stolen valor, this happened on my local bus route here in Toronto. I didn't shoot this video or have anything to do with the situation, but I have met this guy and he always struck me as full of poo poo. He hangs around local music venues in fatigues with questionable rank insignia and dumbass moto patches, and talks a whole bunch of trash. He spotted my 5.11 boots or backpack or something once and went on a tirade of unsolicited 'tactical advice' that even I as a civilian knew was bullshit but I played along because he's clearly unhinged and I've seen him get aggressive and threatening before. He's told friends of mine wildly different 'career stories' including being in Delta Force, or "a Private in JTF2," lol. His FB profile is littered with vanity poses with airsoft guns and CoD 'ghost' masks.

Anyway I figured you guys would get a kick out of this. I'm already 99% sure he's a phony, but at the end of this video he states his 'military ID' and I don't know enough to know if that sounds fake. Thoughts?

Calling your service number a member id strikes me as odd. But from what I could tell it had the right amount of numbers and letters. Service numbers go “A11 111 111”.

My money is on pog who got fed up with “Oh wow! You were in the army?? What’d you do?” “Admin clerk/cook/etc” “oh...” and lied about being infantry and got some good reactions and the lie snowballed. I know of at least one person this happened to.

Out of morbid curiosity, do you know the ranks he was wearing?
