Stolen Valor - USAF Kook Shows Up at Graduation; Weirdest Uniform E-V-A-R....!

This guy showed up for his son’s graduation from basic training at Fort Benning dressed like this. According to our source, the MPs escorted his monkey ass off post;

Notice that on the desk in the last picture, the nose picker even had a Green Beret to round out the ensemble. I’m surprised the MPs didn’t shoot him on sight out of fear.

His real name is Nick Androsky according to someone who found his Facebook profile . Check his photos “Routine Patrol” and the one of him jumping at 30,000 feet from the Space Shuttle, I suppose.

But here's the really weird part --it turns out he came to his STEP FATHER'S graduation..!

[gaijin]

HOW MANY DIFFERENT THINGS can you spot wrong with his uniform?

[gaijin]

Infantryman....in the USAF...? >_<

[gaijin]

my all time fave was the gay US Army guy with goatee who paradaded around at formal parties with EVERY ribbon known to man —he even has SAS and CIA service ribbons.

He was a gay activist who was NOT kidding about his military serivce.

He was AT LEAST twice as bad as this guy.

Anyone have the photos of his uniform? I have looked, but came up short.

[Red Badger]

Just one. HIM.....................

[ArrogantBustard]

Where are the Dolphins?

He needs Dolphins!

Dolphins would complete the ensemble ...

[T-Bird45]

That is as goofy as the adult I saw walking into a restaurant yesterday carrying a toy Thor’s Hammer. Both that guy and the one pictured are displaying extreme signs of reality disconnect.

[Red Badger]

Congressional Meddle of Honor..........

[Ken522]

He forgot his MOH ....

[gundog]

I see a Battle of Lackland AFB ribbon....didn’t think there were any more trivial, so it should be bottom row, right.

[forgotten man]

An enlisted man in the Air Force who is a pilot? What kind of Combat Infantry Badge is that? Was he an infantry man in two different wars?

[Spruce]

Nice job on the tie. <facepalm>

[gundog]

And a SMSgt with wings. Most impressive.

[fishtank]

He looks a lot like Larry Hagman.

[FReepaholic]

He should have been arrested:

Stolen Valor Act of 2005

[CIB-173RDABN]

That is just sad.

[tet68]

Hey, that’s not fair, he’s wearing Barak Obama’s uniform.

[freedumb2003]

Aren’t the badges on the bottom Comm Badges from Star Trek?

I am sure top right was the one they based the Galaxy Quest ship on...

[cripplecreek]

I’m not military and the boots alone would cause me to do a double take.

[NCC-1701]

An astronaut pin would have been a nice touch.

[magslinger]

Battle of Lackland AFB ribbon=National Defense ribbon?

[Jeff Chandler]

That is as goofy as the adult I saw walking into a restaurant yesterday carrying a toy Thor’s Hammer

They are both screaming for attention, like the guy who shows up at a public event with his pet boa constrictor around his neck or a monkey on a leash. More common manifestations of AWS, Attention Whore Syndrome, are body piercings and multiple tattoos.

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

Think of the poor son at whose graduation this flake appeared! I hope the kid had enough sense to state that the person appearing was his father’s evil twin. Lord! The humiliation, which will follow him the rest of his military career, the looks, the glances, the snickers all tinged with a trace of fear reflecting a big “What if!”

[gaijin]

AHA!! Here is the gay goatee psychotic guy --he said he worked for Colin Powell:

[freedumb2003]

Sadly, SV was overturned.

[oyez]

Ahh! You can’t fix stupid.

[Delta 21]

What?? No “wintered over” device on that Antarctic Service Ribbon?

[aruanan]

AHA!! Here is the gay goatee psychotic guy --he said he worked for Colin Powell:

Maybe in a colon.

[RVN Airplane Driver]

Those are crewmember wings and his CIB denotes 3 awards, the original and two additional....

[Scotsman will be Free]

Officer brass on the collar, Command Pilot wings, CIB, and brown boots with his class As.

[Jewbacca]

They wrote that law stupid, so it got overturned.

You have to have intend to defraud or whatnot to make it actionable (e.g., show up and try to get military benefits or whatnot).

Being a dumbass fake is not, alas, a crime -— just an excuse to get a beating from actual soldiers.

[allmendream]

I imagine it is the one you get for ‘graduating’ from Basic Training in the Air Force at Lackland.

Basic training = battle of Lackland.

On an interesting note, not sure where “Lackland” got its name - but John “Lackland”, Robert “the Lion Hearted”’s brother - was jokingly called “Lack-land” because by every scheme of succession he wasn't going to inherit anything (his oldest brother was getting all of England, his brother Robert was getting Aquitaine, and even his bastard brother got land in Brittany (IIRC)). Poor John “lackland” got nothing .......

Until his two older brothers died without heirs.

Then he got all of England.

[RVN Airplane Driver]

Those are not Officer brass and those wings are crewmember wings, not pilot wings!

[ArrogantBustard]

Perhaps a few real Airmen could take him out back somewhere and inflict 8 1/2 weeks of Basic worth of pain on him ... all in about ... ohhh ... five minutes.

[240B]

Maybe not an astronaut, but he appears to be a jump-master. lol

[240B]

Yeah, the field combat boots were the crowning touch. lol

[SkyDancer]

I thought the desert boots added a nice touch. BTW - if someone was in the Army, saw combat, got the badge then enlisted in the Air Force later he should be able to wear it, right? Just asking. I’ve seen people in different branches of the military wearing other service badges/ribbons.

[SkyDancer]

ps - actually the guy looks sad.

[corlorde]

Good God.

[Ronin]

Looking at this guy’s face, I get the feeling he has a room temp IQ. More to be pitied than scorned.

Dissing him is too easy.

What’s that line by PJ O’Rourke? “Like shooting dairy cows with a high-powered hunting rifle and scope?”

[SkyDancer]

I believe that enlisted brass is circled and office brass is not.

[240B]

My experience is yes. I have seen Army personnel wearing dolphins and sws awards. But, they have to paint them black.

BTW guys, check this out. JF’nKerry with his SILVER STAR WITH COMBAT ‘V’.

[NEMDF]

How awful for his son!! I wonder if the son has thought all along that the dad is a bigwig in the AF? Sad....

[Bob]

Where are the Dolphins?

He needs Dolphins!

Dolphins would complete the ensemble ...

While I can't be 100% sure, the pin at the lower right looks like dolphins to me. But, where's his trident?

[HIDEK6]

You have to do more than "see combat" to get a CIB.

You have to be an infantryman who participated in a combat action.

[SkyDancer]

I thought Kerry pitched his medals (ribbons that he borrowed from a fellow protester) over the fence to the WH. And yeah, Kerry is a fraud. My dad explained all that stuff. (Marine pilot in ‘Nam)

[ArrogantBustard]

actually the guy looks sad.

He does.

He should.

We can point fingers, and mock ... and rightly so.

But he's pathetic. Sick.

I have no idea what he has actually accomplished in life, but it's probably not nothing. It's probably something he could take pride in.

But noooooooo.

That's not good enough.

He's not comfortable with who and what he is ... so he conceives this risible fraud. He tries to cover himself in other folks' accomplishment. In the end, he mocks what he is, he mocks what he wants to be, and turns himself into an utterly, completely ridiculous laughingstock.

At some level, I'm sure he knows just how stupid he looks, what an utter failure his efforts are.

Sucks to be him ... and he brought it on himself.

[RichInOC]

He looks like Christopher Walken had a loser son.

[SkyDancer]

Well actually that’s what I meant - thanks for pointing that out.

[SkyDancer]

Hopefully he’ll finally recognize that and get the help he needs. Looks like he lacks self-confidence in himself and/or his ability.
