Fake veteran called out by actual Army soldier [YouTube]

A30-year-old Pennsylvania man could face a federal investigation after being called out on video for impersonating an Army veteran, WCAU-TV reported.


The footage of the encounter has reportedly amassed more than 2.8 million views online since being posted by 26-year-old Army Sgt. Ryan Berk. Berk, who earned a Purple Heart award for his service in Afghanistan, encountered the man while shopping at a mall in Langhorne with his girlfriend and his son on Nov. 28.

“To have this guy then pretend that he’s done the same thing on the caliber that my friends did, it just gets you infuriated,” Berk said.

The Bucks County Courier Times identified the man Berk filmed as Sean Yetman, and reported that Yetman pleaded guilty in 2003 to charges of impersonating a public servant for wearing a coat belonging to Philadelphia police officer Robert Hays, who died in the line of duty in 1995.

The video begins with Berk asking to speak to Yetman, explaining that his son “admires guys in the Army.” Berk then begins asking about his service record and uniform.

And Fu%k the Cavers that TRIED to make an issue of me wearing my dad's medals at a one time gathering that was a tribute to a 60's TV show, COMBAT! It wasn't even a good mock uniform. They didn't get squat out of that one. Fans of the show took my side!!!!
Several other at the event wore their parents medals and that was understood upfront.

But then a Medal of Honor winner understood....

1. His girlfriend now says Yetman is "depressed" and they get death threats.

The death threats are wrong, naturally.

But as to his "depression?"
