Do non military care about stolen valor?

This guy is going to jail for impersonating a Marine:
quote:
Schrenk is alleged to have impersonated a staff sergeant in the United States Marines at several events in the towns of Seneca and West Falls, New York, this summer.
Several Marine recruiters noticed Schrenk when he appeared at the Erie County Fair. The recruiters took Schrenk’s photo and passed it onto a state trooper who they knew had served.
According to “Stars and Stripes,” the recruiters could see that Schrenk was a phony as soon as they engaged him in conversation.
“A white cord draped over his shoulder had no place there. The way a full chest of medals and ribbons was displayed was improper,” “Stars and Stripes” reported.
“The sword he carried was not the type issued to a non-commissioned officer. He also claimed to be of the rank of staff sergeant, said police, who added that this did not add up, given the length of time he claimed to be a Marine,” it added.
Schrenk was also found to have impersonated a police officer in 2013.

for the life of me, I cannot figure out how people can do this shite. It's seriously so pathetic I can't put it into words

Shouldn't go to jail over that. Society should look extremely poorly on him though.

Where is the link to the story?
What did he gain from doing it? I thought it was ruled that it is perfectly legal to do stolen valor as long as you didn't use it to acquire something of value.
I tend to not care about stolen valor because most of the time it's someone that isn't completely there in the head. The non crazy people that do it deserve all the shame and mocking we can give them.

I think it is retarded and one of the douchiest things a person can do, but I don't get angry or go on personal crusades to ruin the persons name or anything

Why the hell would you do this? What benefit does he gain?

I care more about him impersonating a cop.

When did shooting dogs become a thing of valor?

nuts
he's making an arse of himself, but sending someone to jail for playing army would mean most cops should be there with him

Do we really need a law for it?
Should I go ahead and arrest the "Navy seal" in the bar who is obviously not?
I think calling them out to make them look like complete asses is sufficient punishment.

In general, yes, but: What is the solution?
Most of those who do this have some mental problems.
If one obtains something of value for the fraudulent presentation, the question is more easy to answer.

I care about it and think its deplorable

I say instead of sending him to jail, they just sentence him to the same length of time compulsory military service.
Then he can brag all he wants about dressing up like a hero. They'll take care of him.

Zero fricks given 
What's the sentence for this? If he isn't using it for monetary gain, I don't see how this should be a law.
ETA: just saw Dam Guide's post. Glad they rectified this ridiculous law

its pathetic when people claim to be in the military when they never have been, but I think its just as pathetic when actual military play up the fact they served just for attention or free stuff.

At the very least you would think that he would have done some research on the basics for the uniform protocol.
Even without the uniform incongruities, you can tell from his near-smirk he's not a Marine.
