Ironic Justice For Puyallup Man

Some guy who decided Halloween was just too fun to be only one day a year got a heavy dose of ironic justice yesterday:

A Puyallup man who posed as a decorated Marine Corps captain for two years will tend graves at the Tahoma Military Cemetery in Kent as part of 500 hours of community service, a federal judge has decided.

Reggie L. Buddle, 59, pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court to unlawful wearing of U.S. military medals and decorations.

Buddle bought his uniform at a military supply store, and wore the medals of his brother, who was killed in action in Vietnam. Classy!

He told the judge he was ashamed of his actions.
