Police: Man Faked War Story To Steal VFW Money

UPDATE
Received an email with a link to the corrected version of this. Tom Price's office had nothing to do with this. It would have been nice if the reporter found this out before it was posted but that is how things go sometimes.

Glad to see that Tom Price's office is not involved in this and happy to correct this story.
