| That Walter Mitty guy takes the biscuit. Only a minor point to add to all the other 'mistakes' etc., his peak cap badge and badges of rank are both wrong for calling himself a Major General, more likely a Brigadier. With that and all the medal selection he chose to wear, he didn't do his research. Silly bu**er.
There was another guy quite recently who was in a Remembrance parade march past, wearing SAS beret together with a load of medals etc. He got done for it and quite right. This fella should also be done as well. | |

| Funny enought Gordon, I was going to mention the same. Some of those Genderals of theirs are well past the sell by date and get a load of those medals. Where the hell have they been serving to warrant that lot. Good site at http://www.uniforminsignia.org/ Just dial in the requested info and up comes the requested badges of rank to a particular service etc. Have a look at the North Koreans. Tjey even have a Grand Marshal.!! | |
