War brings faster promotions to class that give the orders, but you always find the Scum that’ll do any damn thing to get ahead!
The very last place you want to see it is in the Military and when that Military is sent into Wars Of Choice!
But it happened than, all the past than’s, and the present is no differant!
Major gets 5 months for faking awards
And all this scumbag gets is 5 months and a $9,300 restitution payback because of his promotion on the false claims!
lying about his Army achievements and awards – including his bogus claim a Silver Star for heroism in battle – so he could get promoted faster.
Not the sentence he should have gotten.
The felony charge of knowingly making false statements carried up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine. Calderone was also accused of wearing false decorations between Nov. 22, 2003, and Dec. 3, 2006. That charge, a misdemeanor, carried a maximum sentence of six months in prison and a $5,000 fine.
One wonders the why he was let off so easy!
Spent 2005 in Iraq, apparently lied about further tours In-Country, his qualifications, and other awards!
Falsified his DA Form 2-1 with the Silver Star, Special Forces and Ranger tabs, and Combat Infantry badge!
Than submitted a falsified DD 214, all of which led to the promotion to Major!
This clown could get himself Elected pResident in this Country, now that we’ve already lowered the bar, Way Low!!
