The highest compliment to a soldier is to defend the Constitution for which he fought.

Which court found the Stolen Valor Act un-Constitutional?

Oh right. None.

As a former enlisted I can say that it is indeed the highest complement; much like it is/was discouraging to come back from Iraq just in time to see the 2008 elections (and ACORN) and how... passive/undemanding-of-justice the citizenry seemed to be about it.

That reminds me of this doc I wrote back then:
