To the members of the American Vietnam Veteran Chapter 1 of Brownsville the fact that Cesar Rendon walks around in green battle fatigues was often amusing since everyone knows he did not serve in the Marines, much less in combat.
But when people started posting photos showing him awarding medals to various local people as a "Special Marine," that crossed the line."He isn't authorized to hand out medals," said Vietnam Veterans chapter commander Salvador Salinas. "Especially since he didn't serve. I notice in the photos that he is still wearing corporal stripes."
When Salinas and his comrades saw Rendon handing local seafood magnate Robert "Capt. Bob" Sanchez he decided to take action.
"I have instructed our XO (executive officer) to call a special meeting to discuss this matter," he said. "I don't want one misguided person to put us in a bad light."
Sanchez, by the way, did not serve in the military, and doesn't claim he did. And there's no telling how many such medals Rendon has awarded other people.
Other readers have sent El Rrun-Rrun photos of Rendon when he "volunteered" for the chapter's funeral detail and wonder why Rendon was allowed to perform that sacred duty. (Out of respect for the soldier and their family we will not publish them here.)
"He volunteers in the funeral detail," wrote one. "The families of the fallen soldier don't even know that he is not a true veteran. What a disrespect to the fallen soldier and the family."
Unfortunately, cases of such "stolen honor" are not unusual. Most involve individuals pretending that they served in combat and wear medals, including the Purple Heart, indicating that they were wounded in battle. However, Salinas and his crew say they will deal with the issue directly and put a stop to it once and for all.
"We'll correct it," he said.
After we posted this article, one of our readers sent us a copy of the Texas Penal Code dealing with claiming a fraudulent or fictitious military record and decorations (VTCA Penal Code 32.54). A person commits an offense (Class B misdemeanor) is he or she uses or claims a military record
* knowing it's fraudulent,
* is fictitious and has not been granted or assigned to the person,
* or uses it to gain some benefit, service, state job or donation.
Given the proof of Sanchez's Facebook posts, "Special Marine" Rendon might want to think things through if he continues "awarding" Marine Corps medals..

Any veteran who eats at Sanchez's restaurant disrespects all veterans and in particular those who died in service to this country.
Sanchez is a total and complete pathetic loser Sanchez.
Amazon's Jeff Bezos next in Space Race, after Branson's flight.
But, hey, where's the Cheeto Rocket? News headline of the day - "Trump Gets JEALOUS Over Billionaire Space Race"
ja ja ja
LOSER!!!
Where does he buy the medals? What's the medal for? Who determines who gets these medals? This must be a joke. Seems like this guy has mental issues and thinks he's a soldier.
Everybody knows that Rendon is mentally challenged, but at least he's not an Asthmatic draft dodger like vegetable Biden! Hahahahahahahaha!
Another FAKER is Jim "Manteca" Barton. He's not a degreed journalist like Juan Montoya. Manteca Barton worked as bagboy at Glen's Grocery store, at a motel an at unloading shrimp at the port!
That's Stolen Journalism Valor! ja ja ja ja
Vato presumido, gordo y mentiroso. Manteca Barton wrote Pedro Cardenas was
"unqualified" for the city commission. El Guey is UNQUALIFIED TO BE A NEWS BLOGGER!!!
We're Pedro.

@10:39
Or a 5-time draft deferment asshole like Republican Donald Trump and his bone spurs!
c/s
For blogger Jim "Manteca" Barton -
We're Pedro.
Who is Duardo?
Attention all restaurants, do not serve a free meal to this idiot. He is a total fake. He dresses up as a veteran
On VETERANS DAY and goes to restaurants just to get a free meal and then brags about it. HE IS NOT
A VETERAN. He never earn it. Pinche muerto de hambre!
Stolen valor punishment should be 6 months of boot camp for all our true vets to watch and laugh at. It would make for a great reality series!
You never hear of anyone saying they were in Admin, or a cook, or even a laundry and clothing repair specialist, which are all vital roles within the military. I despise liars, but I really despise stolen valor phonies who claim combat duty with a passion!
Also sickening are guys whose wives served, but they didn't.
All posts above were written by The old pendejo, Eduardo Paz Martinez….. ya deja de escribir pendejadas, viejito inútil y Cámbiate el pañal, viejito Puñetas! What a miserable fucking life you live…. Still painting your hair purple? Pendejo?
Republican U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham suggested that his Republican colleagues take a page out of the Texas Democrats’ playbook and stage a walkout if their Senate counterparts try to jam their $3.5 trillion budget package through without GOP support.
Leave town?
ja ja ja aja ja ja ja ja
Bone spurs from playing too much golf while the other draftees and volunteers were fighting and dying for our great Nation.
Obviously this rendon guy has amental disability and means no harm or disrespect
But rather has an admiration and fasination with veterans
Nothing here just let it go
"where's duardo?"
don't know and don't care
I'm told he was sleeping on his dead mother's bed in mcallen, but he's likely on some relative's couch now.
So, why hasn't anyone filed a complaint with BPD?
Weren't Robert Sanchez, Arturo Trevino, Eliseo Davila and Pedro Cardenas Special Forces?
Is Rendon a veteran?
There are several Rendons’ is this one a veteran?
Yea and also ask the matamoros mamones that were part time Americans in the 60s where they went when the draft happened. Chicken shits went back to matamoros but came back and retired from PUB and the city fking cowards.,motherfunkers!!
The Marines.... " Latin for “Always Faithful,” Semper Fidelis is the motto of every Marine—an eternal and collective commitment to the success of our battles, the progress of our Nation, and the steadfast loyalty to the fellow Marines we fight alongside. Established in 1883, this motto distinguishes the bond developed and shared between Marines. It goes beyond words that are spoken, as it is a warriorhood that is lived."
In today’s society everyone gets a trophy/medal for showing up and can be bought for a taco. The local bloggers, especially McHale and Montoya are good examples of how they are influenced by the TACO syndrome
Fake soldier and fake captain. Puro mugrergo!
I'M A HONORABLY DISCHARGED MARINE DISABLED VETERAN...WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL ABOUT THIS GUY!!!! LET HIM FEEL SOME PRIDE OF BEING A MARINE WHEN YOU AND I KNOW HE'S NOT....NO ONE IS COMPLAIMING TO THE BROWNSVILLE POLICE DEPARTMENT, TO THE VETERANS GROUPS OR EVEN TO THE MILITARY GOVERNMENT AUTHORTIES???? BESIDES THAT, HE MAY NEVER BE PROSECUTED BY ANY COURT FOR USING OR WEARING METALS INCLUDING GIVING THEM AWAY????? HE'LL BE FOUND TO BE UNSTABLE MENTALLY!!!! WAIST OF TIME TO TRY TO HAVE THEM PROSECUTED...HE'S NOT HARMING ANYBODY PERSONALLY MAYBE LOCAL BUSINESS FOR DISCOUNTS???? I KNOW WHEN I GET A DISCOUNT I PRESENT MY VA CARD ISSUED BY THE VA!!!! IT'S THE BUSINESS PROBLEM FOR NOT ASKING FOR A MILTARY ID AND OR A VA CARD FOR THE DISCOUNT???? LET IT GO!!!!
Greetings from South Dallas!
Yes, daddy is sleeping on the couch.
Rendon dressing in fatigues is no different than when Gilbert Garzoria used to dress in scrubs lab coat with a stethosscop around his neck claiming to be a Dr in Matamoros. They're (were) both 96ers. Let him be.
Rendon's fake military act began with the VFW's Funeral Honor Guard. They did not have enough members to perform the service. Rendon was not the only non military member of the Honor guard at that time. Shirt only had US Flag patch and he wore a hat. I guess he's graduated to full out Stolen Valor status. Rendon has been arrested for posing as a fake police officer to sexually assault females. He also walked around SombreroFest showing off a fake trophy claiming he was voted Best Conga Player by the Tejano Music awards. He is neither a musician, nor has he been in a band or has recorded anything. He's a faker. It's what he does.
This is some pretty creepy shit! How could the Captain Bob even be photographed with this goober? Pretty creepy, El Bob!
Maybe Elon will let this guy be on his next rocket to Uranus?
Only in Browntown! Geez.
