I worked for a defense contractor. We had an arrogant manager who mouthed off to the wrong people...he was a Nam vet and claimed he received the DSC. The two people he bragged to were a retired 06 and an 05. This guy pissed off many people and the retired 06 & 05 checked out his claim which turned out to be false...he was terminated on the spot.
