Stolen Valor or something else

We can't be sure what is going on right now or what was behind it. Why would anyone in their right mind want to do something like this especially when it involves something so soul reaching it can cause even the hardest hearts to weep? This is about the Traveling Wall and Vietnam, men and women treated like crap, but never gave up on us. They served with strangers they ended up living with as family. This is about Vietnam veterans honoring the lives lost and lives forgotten but someone is now accused to pretending to be one of them with the wall itself? I hope this gets cleared up fast because there will be more pain laid on the hearts of the Vietnam veterans for each day this goes on.

  1. Thank you for posting this piece on felony theft, "STOLEN VALOR".. The more this gets out to the masses the quicker people like Lyins are brought to justice.. It is a proven fact that he is quilty of theft and to me the next step is to have him prosecuted under the "STOLEN VALOR ACT.. God speed..
