And those clowns never claim they were supply clerks...

or whatnot. I usually run into the ones covered in Force Recon regalia with wild stories of guarding the CIA dope farms in Cambodia or some such nonsense. Had one coworker a few years ago spinning yarns of having been a Force Recon sniper, and claimed the Marine Corps gave him his sniper rifle when he got out. Yeah, right. The next few months dealing with him confirmed my initial impression that he was a POS.
Old age seems to be making me less tolerant of such antics. Go figure.
