This Ain't Hell has the entire story.Yeah, Brian Dennehy, the guy from First Blood that made us all look like lunatics on the edge. But it is okay, because he’s a big time combat veteran:

An actor, makes his dough by playing make-believe. And like most I've met, he lost track of where reality and make-believe intersect.
Fuck him and his cohort.

Re: Jon Huntsman’s Stolen Valor Spokesdouche
What really burns my behind is that even in an "apology" these guys look for empathy with this standard line from the Stolen Valor Handbook;
"Well, I told the initial lie and then didn't know how to get out of it, so I built on the lie some more" (until he got caught, of course).
How to "get out of it"? Umm. I dunno- tell the truth after the first lie?
It may be me, but it seems just a wee bit disingenuous that once they are caught all of a sudden the apologies overflowing with gratitude and remorse flow out.

Well, got me. I thought that fucker had been in Vietnam. Many years ago HBO did a pretty good documentary called "Dear America: Letters home from Vietnam" and Dennehy was the primary narrator doing the commercials.

George C. Scott was another. He made a big deal about his service as a Marine in WWII. BUT, he served at HQ, USMC in Washington DC 1945 - 1949.

Yeah, Kilmer proved to be a serious douche waffle. He hasn't done anything to redeem himself in any way either.

A slow death resulting from an act of islamic terrorism would go a long way to closing the gap.RangerX wrote: He hasn't done anything to redeem himself in any way either.

Last I saw, it's probably going to be a slow death in a diabetic coma from too much Ben & Jerry's.
