Fake Soldier Confronted by Airport Security For Wearing Uniform Improperly (WATCH)

Christian Parmer, a former Army Combat Engineer in the U.S. Army reportedly saw a man wearing one of the military organization's uniforms the wrong way at the Fresno Yosemite International Airport according to United Press International.

"He's wearing his hat indoors, which we don't," Parmer told KMPH-TV about the individual who is heard saying that he is from the U.S. Army's Explosive Ordiance Disposal Team also known as EOD. These initials could be seen on armband the person was wearing. "He's got a Confederate flag on his shoulder, which we don't wear of course," Palmer added.

The man then reportedly tells Palmer that he is in the U.S. Department of Defense, and used to be in the U.S. Marines. He did not declare what his Military Occupational Specialty or MOS was. The man also said he could not find anymore clean clothes than the uniform when it was time to to go bring his father to the airport.

"I had nothing else that was clean. I have no other clothes that are here right now," the man said in the video.. "I've been here only for four days." "It's my stepson's Army uniform," he said. "It's all he had. He's not here right now." Airport police took the individual out of the facility.

He could have been violation of the Stolen Valor Act. The law does not allow people the opportunity to prosper by imitating a person who belongs to a U.S. service organization KPHM reported.
