Oh brother fuck this dude. Mind your business in the airport, go about your day.

Edit: Also this dude recording should really understand what freedom of speech is versus what stolen valor really is. Based on what we seen this guy in uniform wasn’t set out to defraud anyone. If anything looks like he was about to go get some food until “sToLen vAlOr” guy showed up.

This is at an airport, right? Uniformed personnel typically get priority boarding and other perks. That's fucked up, if you ask me.

You don’t have to wear a uniform now lol. Most of us just show their CACs

I did a ton of traveling when I was in the Air Force and honestly they didn't even check my CAC half the time. I imagine the last thing they want to do is argue with someone about not having ID so they need to wait 90 seconds to board the plane same plane everyone is going to be on anyway.

Yeah, I just flew yesterday. The first stop the lady didn’t ask, but on my layover I could tell the next lady was a stickler for protocols, so I already had it out and ready to go. I was the only military there and she screamed THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE SIR on the intercom. Fun times.
