        @ronwilliamswv Wow, trolls are out on that story. In response to your ?, I just find it hard to believe a journalist could misremember that.

        @bobbyross Agree. Doubt one could misremember such an event. Mis-speak about it? Maybe. If this was a case of "stolen valor" - no contest.

        @bobbyross Given the info I have available, it certainly seems that is the case. Sad situation. Humans are experts in mucking things up.
