Finally a common sense bill is going through the commons at the moment, criminalising those that falsely wear medals that they are not entitled to.
I've met a few civvy wafflers over the years, normally claiming to be an ex marines or SAS. Never the Catering Corp or MT drivers
But I don't know how anyone, ex military or civilian can look people in the eye and knowingly wear medals they haven't earned
Lock them up and throw away the key, or use them as cannon fodder in some far flung hotspot and earn them properly
Obviously I'm not including relatives medals that you are allowed to wear on the opposite side as a mark of respect.
