Posers? My gosh…..I am a civilian and had to call him out. He was giving the military a bad name.?

We Answered:

Nothing grinds my gears worse than poser veterans.

Ever notice how many poser SF/SEAL/Recon guys there are on Yahoo answers?!

I don't care what difficulty they beat SOCOM or Call of Duty on, they are not Vets. It's so insulting.

When I first joined YA, there was a guy answering questions here claiming he was a SF veteran. I followed some of his questions and answers, and saw that he had answered an "Are you afraid of dying?" question in the Psychology section. He answered with (I'm paraphrasing here) "No. I'm a veteran Special Forces soldier, and I've seen my fair share of death, and dealt out more than my fair share of it" he went on for a while making extreme claims of, in his words, "hardcore combat". A TRUE Special Forces soldier would NEVER behave in such a way. They don't call them "Quiet Professionals" for nothing.

I wish it didn't bother me as bad as it does, but it really steams me up.

ETA: A thumbs down? Yeah, that makes sense...
