    Yes, this x 1000. "Sniper" and "confirmed kills" are two of the biggest poser red flags. (along with "Navy SEAL" or "Green Beret".)

    However, as kpp stated, most people who legit have been overseas and were involved in heavy combat or at least enough of it to get kills don't go bragging about it. They might talk of their time overseas, funny stories, others' exploits, but rarely to never their own.
    You could try dropping a line to Jonn Lilyea over at http://thisainthell.us They are pretty much in the business of busting military fraudsters. He can likely point you to a British group that will be able to find info on the guy.

    The Brits, Canadians and Aussies refer to military fakers as "Walts" (as in "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.")

    If you love your freedom, thank a veteran. If you love to party, thank the Beastie Boys. They fought for that right.
