There are jobs where having a military honor is not only a requirement, but a relevant requirement affecting one's ability to perform the job?

Not a medal but service? Yes definitely, including preferential hiring for veterans.

We're not just talking about people claiming medals here. We're also talking people claiming to be in the military or having served.

I've heard second-hand about this stuff. Where a Marine reservist starting working at a job and was told there's this former special forces Marine that worked there. The reservist asked a few questions and easily found out the guy was a fake yet he had the staff, that don't know any better, fooled for years and had long considered the guy a special hero they had working there.

Dishonesty, especially dishonesty with regards to something that we deem as heroic, just bothers our moral sensibilities and you should feel there should be some justice. If anyone acts like Sloww is an idiot, you apparently operate in a different world with regards to right and wrong from us. Unfortunately, that pesky free speech...
